Abstract
A novel multigrid method for the accurate and efficient simulation of turbulent flows is described and demonstrated. The method's efficiency relative to direct simulations is of the order of the ratio of requir ed integration time to the smallest-eddy turnover time, potentially re sulting in orders-of-magnitude improvement for a large class of turbul ence problems.
