[OpenFOAM 1.6] How to run a simulation based on either DES or LES?

imranazizahmed · January 28, 2013, 06:32

Hello everybody,
I have compiled OpenFOAM 1.6 and need to include a simulation based on either Detached Eddy Simulation (DES) or Large Eddy Simulation (LES) for a minimum mesh size of 100 million cells. I am supposed to use my own test problem subject to those requirements.
Can somebody please tell me which executables and which data sets I need to use for the above?
Thanks!

This is what I read:

“Incompressible flow”
channelFoam: Incompressible LES solver for flow in a channel

Does this mean, that I need to use channelFoam as the executable for LES simulations? Kindly help.
