Recent progress in applying the Large Eddy Simulation (LES) to flow control in turbomachinery is reviewed. The development of flow control in turbomachinery requires accurate prediction of detailed three-dimensional flow structures including unsteady motion of various vortex systems. It has been shown that LES provides more realistic description of the complex flowfields compared to steady and unsteady Reynolds-averaged Navier- Stokes simulations (RANS & URANS).
