Abstract
The near-wall cycle of hybrid RANS/LES is studied by calculating the flow through a planar channel. Statistical results are commented on and related to instantaneous structures which are extracted from the flow field. The problematic structures in the artificial near-wall cycle, well known to be super-streaks, are identified and quantified. The calibration of such closures provides a correct mixing length argument in the logarithmic layer. However because of these overly intense streamwise streaks, it is impossible to simultaneously predict the Reynolds streamwise normal and shear stress components correctly. Further, because the location of the RANS-LES interface changes spatially and temporally, we see these structures are more free to move vertically and this further worsens statistical results.
