- We propose the use of an unifying paradigm for the assessment and development of closed forms of the coarse-grained Navier-Stokes equations in approaches ranging from the statistical to the scale-resolving ones. It consists in the exact formalism provided by the temporally filtered Navier-Stokes equations. The fundamental idea is that the smoothing action of turbulent stresses can be described as a temporal filtering operator implicitly applied to the solution. Contrary to the average and spatial filtering operators, the temporal filter is an unifying operator smoothly varying within the statistical and scale-resolving realms. The potential of the temporal filtering paradigm is here highlighted by unveiling relevant algebraic properties and by deriving a new class of turbulence closures. A dynamic procedure is derived and shown to provide an unifying closure for both scale-resolving and statistical approaches. Results show that an improved physics is captured. Challenging phenomena such as the laminar to turbulence transition and the dependence of separation and reattachment on free-stream turbulence applied through boundary conditions are captured.
