This paper reviews the most important advancements obtained by means of Safety Computational Fluid Dynamics (Safety CFD, SCFD) models based on the Large Eddy Simulation (LES) approach in the study of gas explosions at both laboratory and industrial scales. It is pointed out the central role of LES as the most adequate tool for describing the inherently unsteady interplay of flame propagation, flow field and geometry, associated to explosion phenomena. Some issues yet to be addressed are discussed as relevant to fully realize the potential of explosion LES. Copyright © 2010, AIDIC Servizi S.r.l.

Abstract
This paper reviews the most important advancements obtained by means of Safety Computational Fluid Dynamics (Safety CFD, SCFD) models based on the Large Eddy Simulation (LES) approach in the study of gas explosions at both laboratory and industrial scales. It is pointed out the central role of LES as the most adequate tool for describing the inherently unsteady interplay of flame propagation, flow field and geometry, associated to explosion phenomena. Some issues yet to be addressed are discussed as relevant to fully realize the potential of explosion LES.
