� Reynolds numbers of ICE flows are moderate
� Practical meshes can resolve up to 80% of the flow energy� meshes with 10-100Mcells
� Yet many 2phase, mixing & combustion phenomena cannot be resolved� and have to be modelled
� LES does not automatically solve all problems of CF D� However it yields an improved description of the tu rbulent flow in an ICE
� an important part of convection is resolved
� yielding a spatially filtered physical realisation of the flow
� This improves predictions of mixing, combustion and sprays� as flow and turbulence are major inputs to related models
� modeling is facilitated (filtering more easy to grasp than ensemble averaging)
� and increasingly so as mesh resolution can be increased

IFPEN’s approach to LES for ICE flows
� "engineering" LES = use CFD codes developed for RANS, replacing k- εεεε by a sub-grid turbulence model� appealing owing to its simplicity� doesn't allow accurately resolving large scales
� only a large simulation, without eddies?...
� thus very limited in terms of predictivity
� "brute force" LES = put all efforts on increasing mes h resolution, neglecting sub-grid modelling� will be the solution on the VERY long term
� yet accurate sub-grid modelling will remain essential on the way
� IFPEN’s approach: A pragmatic compromise� use a CFD code specifically developed for LES: AVBP
� exploit the potential of parallel machines to achieve return times compatible with practical ICE applications
� develop accurate sub-grid models for combustion and sprays

CCV modeling: Perturbing each cycle based on LES findings
� LES has allowed identifying key CCV mechanisms� importance of flow properties fluctuations on the flame development� no correlation between the tumble and spark-plug velocity variability
� strong impact of thermodynamic effects (naturally included in 1D CFD)
� Post-processing LES of the motored case allowed ident ifying three main physical parameters key to CCV
� They were chosen as the parameters to perturb in order to introduce CCV in MCC simulations with CFM1D� mean kinetic energy K deduced from the PDF of the
tumble ratio @ IVC taken from LES – Approximatedas a Gaussian, with σ=6,5% ⇒ direct impact on k and u’
� integral length scale using a log normal distribution with σ=10% estimated from LES
� velocity fluctuation at spark plug using a Gaussian PDF with σ=4/m/s from LES ⇒ computation of the electrical arc convection and turbulent ignition energy
