This paper reports the results of numerical investigations of swirling turbulent jet flows by large-eddy simulation. Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes simulations are used to generate mean inflow data. Fluctuations are added to the profiles of the means to produce instantaneous inflow data. The instantaneous inflowdata are correlated such that the characteristic length and time scales of inflowing turbulent eddies are consistent with the corresponding Reynoldsaveraged Navier-Stokes profiles imposed at the inlet. The resulting large-eddy simulation method is validated against experimental data of both swirling and nonswirling turbulent jets. The application of the validated largeeddy simulation method to studies of the mechanism of swirl effects shows the following. Swirl breaks apart the typical ring structures of nonswirling turbulent jets into two modes: a helical mode and streamwise braid structures. The interaction of these two modes generates unorganized turbulence that enhances the turbulent mixing. An analysis of the mixing enhancement by swirl shows a significant increase of the turbulent mixing efficiency of scalars with the swirl number (of up to 21.7% for the cases considered).
