Althoughthemajorityofthefluiddynamicsproblemsencounteredbothinnature and in civil or industrial engineering regard turbulent flows, turbulence as a self- standing topic is usually absent from the syllabus of most university degrees (at least in Italy). Among other purposes, this work aims to fill this gap by providing thenecessarytheoreticalandconceptualfundamentalsandpresentingasufficiently vii viii Preface completepanoramicofturbulencemodels,fromthesimplesttothemostadvanced onesincludingdirectandlargeeddysimulation.

As a caveat, it must be stated that this work limits itself to the algebraic or differentialformulationofmathematicalmodelsanddoesnottreattheissueoftheir subsequent numerical resolution, for which several excellent books are available. ItalianreadersareaddressedtoFondamentidiTermofluidodinamicaComputazionale (Comini et al., eds, 2014). With few exceptions, at differential equation level, applying a turbulence model amounts to adding a certain number of scalar trans- port equations to the basic equations for laminar flow and does not need special numericalmethods. Inregardtothecontentsofthisbook,Chap.1(Introductionandgoverningequa- tions) provides a consistent basis for the treatment of turbulence and establishes a nomenclature.ItislargelytakenfromtheintroductorylecturesofthecoursesCompu- tationalThermofluidDynamicsandModelsforThermofluidDynamics,whichIhave held over several years at the University of Palermo for the Master’s degrees in EnergyandNuclearEngineeringandChemicalEngineering.

Chapter6(TurbulenceinFreeandMixedConvection)treatsaclassofproblems that are often neglected in most textbooks on turbulence. It also attempts to throw abridgetowardsthevastsubjectofatmosphericturbulenceandmeteorology,often made awkward to engineering students by flashy, but in the end only secondary, differencesofapproachandnotation.
