= Turbulence Closure =

PALM offers different turbulence closures depending on the scope of the simulation.

 [wiki:doc/tec/sgs LES]:: Per default, PALM is operated as an LES model using a subgrid-scale model to parameterize turbulence of size smaller than the grid size. ////
 [wiki:doc/tec/turbulence_parameterization RANS]:: By using one of the RANS-turbulence parameterizations, PALM is operated in RANS-mode. ////
