This study focuses on TLES (Thermal Large Eddy Simulation). We study the influence of thermal boundary conditions on mean and fluctuating profiles for a turbulent bi-periodic channel with a thermal gradient. TLES simulations show that mean profiles of longitudinal velocity, transversal velocities and their fluctuations are not affected by the therm 1 boundary conditions (flux or temperature imposed at wall). Profiles of mean temperature and mean vertical velocity are slightly changed by the thermal boundary conditions. The thermal gradient at wall is stronger and temperature slope in the middle of channel is lower with imposed temperature boundary conditions. Although there are the same in the middle of the channel, temperature fluctuations profiles are very different near to the wall according to thermal boundary conditions. In fact, with flux boundary conditions, the temperature fluctuation profile is similar close to the wall than in the middle of channel; with imposed temperature boundary conditions, theses profiles tend to zero close to the wall. This result is very important for industrial process because thermal fatigue due to thermal fluctuations at wall can damage it.
