v5 v6 3 3 = Turbulence closure = 4 4 5 One of the main challenges in LES modeling is the turbulence closure. The filtering process yields four SGS covariance terms (see the first five equations at[wiki:doc/tec/gov governing equations]) that cannot be explicitly calculated. In PALM, these SGS terms are parametrized using a 1.5-order closure after [#deardorff Deardorff (1980)]. PALM uses the modified version of [#moeng Moeng and Wyngaard (1988)] and [#saiki Saiki et al. (2000)]. The closure is based on the assumption that the energy transport by SGS eddies is proportional to the local gradients of the mean quantities and reads5 One of the main challenges in LES modeling is the turbulence closure.
