Acquiring a 2048 cubed data set of turbulence

理解湍流的主要工具之一是大数值模拟。网格点越多，流动越湍流，表现为雷诺数越大。目前最大的此类模拟是日本的新4096 cubedsimulation。下一个最大的数据集是在美国新墨西哥州的洛斯阿拉莫斯国家实验室创建的2048立方数据集。该数据集将通过租借的USB磁盘驱动器带到英国。一旦它在这里，我们希望使用它来识别那些最容易产生声学噪声的结构，我们希望将其提供给更广泛的英国和欧洲湍流社区。特别是那些试图理解湍流基本物理问题和开发新湍流模型的人。沃里克很快将从SRIF-2中获得一个能够处理这类数据集的计算和可视化中心。研究生和研究助理的资金，以帮助每个人在访问这些数据将来自单独的英国应用程序与用户合作，从英国大学。

One of the major tools in understanding turbulence is largenumerical simulations. With more mesh points the flow is moreturbulent, indicated by large values of the Reynolds number.Currently the largest such simulation is the new 4096 cubedsimulation in Japan. One of the next largest is a 2048 cubeddata set created at Los Alamos National Laboratory in New Mexico, USA.This data set is being brought to the UK on loaned USB disk drives.Once it is here we want to use it for identifying those structuremost prone to producing acoustic noise and we want to make itavailable to the wider UK and and European turbulence communities,but especially those trying to understand fundamental mathematicalquestions about turbulence and those developing new turbulence models.Warwick will soon have from SRIF-2 funds a computing and visualization centre capable of handling this class of data set. Funding forpost-graduate students and a research associateto assist everyone in accessing this data will come fromseparate UK applications in collaboration with users fromother UK universities.
