Abstract

The power of modern computers and massive parallelization on clusters makes it possible to do scale-resolving simulations at Reynolds numbers relevant for turbomachinery. Since the computational domain can only represent a finite part of the physical world, it is essential for numerical simulation codes to provide high-quality boundary conditions (BC) in the sense of non-reflective properties and the possibility of unsteady inflow.
