A Sophisticated Analytical Methodology for Refining the Smagorinsky Model in Turbulent Flows

Abstract: In this work, we present three important theorems related to the corrected Smagorinsky model for turbulence in time-dependent domains. The first theorem establishes an improved regularity criterion for the solution of the corrected Smagorinsky model in Sobolev spaces $H^s(\Omega(t))$ with smooth and evolving boundaries. The result provides a bound on the Sobolev norm of the solution, ensuring that the solution remains regular over time. The second theorem quantifies the approximation error between the corrected Smagorinsky model and the true Navier-Stokes solution. Taking advantage of high-order Sobolev spaces and energy methods, we derive an explicit error estimate for the velocity fields, showing the relationship between the error and the external force term. The third theorem focuses on the asymptotic convergence of the corrected Smagorinsky model to the solution of the Navier-Stokes equations as time progresses. We provide an upper bound for the error in the $L^2(\Omega)$ norm, demonstrating that the error decreases as time increases, especially as the external force term vanishes. This result highlights the long-term convergence of the corrected model to the true solution, with explicit dependences on the initial conditions, viscosity, and external forces.
