Abstract
Direct numerical simulations (DNS) are conducted for turbulent flows over porous media. A high-order spectral/hp element method is adopted for solving the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations. Resolving flow details close to the interface relies on an adaptive polynomial refinement based on a conforming mesh. Four DNS cases up to bulk Reynolds number \$\$Re=15\,\000\$\$Re=15,000are conducted with a total mesh resolution up to 1 billion degrees of freedom. The highly-resolved DNS enables us to focus on two major physical phenomenon: (i) the turbulence modulation including drag reduction and flow control; (ii) the turbulent/non-turbulent interface close to the porous surface. The numerical solver exhibits an excellent scalability up to 96k cores on Hazel Hen. Strong scaling tests indicate an efficiency of 70\$\$\backslash\%\$\$\%with around 5, 000 mesh-nodes per core, which indicates a high potential for an adequate use of current and next-generation HPC platforms to investigate turbulent flows over porous media.
