Hybrid RANS-LES models are therefore being developed which compute all
wall boundary layers in RANS mode and switch to LES only for the free shear
flow regions

Physics
Resolved turbulence is generated quickly by flow instability
Resolved turbulence is not dependent on details of turbulence in
upstream RANS region (the RANS model can determine the
separation point but from there new turbulence is generated)
Models
SAS: Most easy to use as it converts quickly into LES mode, and
automatically covers the boundary layers in RANS. Has RANS
fallback solution in regions not resolved by LES standards (t, x)
DDES: Similar to SAS, but requires LES resolution for all free shear
flows (t, x) (jets etc.)
ELES: Not really required as RANS model can cover boundary
layers. Often difficult to place interfaces for synthetic turbulence.

Models
SAS: Stays in RANS mode. Covers upstream boundary layers in
RANS mode. Can be triggered into SRS mode by RANS-LES
interface.
DDES: Can be triggered to go into LES mode by fine grid and small
t. Careful grid generation required. Covers upstream boundary
layers in RANS mode.
ELES: LES mode on fine grid and small t. Careful grid generation
required. Upstream boundary layer (pipe flow) in expensive LES
mode. Alternative ELES with synthetic turbulence RANS-LES
interface.

Physics
Transition process is slow and takes several boundary layer
thicknesses.
When switching from upstream RANS to SRS model, RANS-LES
interface with synthetic turbulence generation required.
RANS-LES interface needs to be placed in non-critical (equilibrium)
flow portion. Downstream of interface, full LES resolution
required.
Models
SAS: Stays in RANS mode. Typically good solution with RANS. Can
be triggered into SRS mode by RANS-LES interface.
DDES: Can be triggered to go into LES mode by fine grid and small
t. Careful grid generation required. Covers upstream boundary
layers in RANS mode.
ELES: LES mode on fine grid and small t. Careful grid generation
