I love turbulence. Knowing how to model it in just the right fidelity is an art imho. An art I fell in love with 💕

The intention of this set of posts is to embark on a journey of connecting the dots between CFD and turbulence modeling with the phenomenological and practical concepts of engineering turbulence…

But be very careful, for this is an endless “Turbulence Feast”, and this buffet may make you explode 💥💥💥
