Physical analysis and modelling of unsteady turbulent aerodynamic flows around lifting bodies

Objective



The proposed research focusses on the prediction Of high-Reynolds number unsteady turbulent flows around lifting bodies, a domain of high priorily in the aeronautics nowadays. The objectives of the present proposal are: - By employing a promising new approach, the Organised Eddy Simulation, a complete reconsideration of the two-equation turbulence model will be achieved, to predict especially the dynamic stall phenomenon. This will be accomplished through a synergy between the physical experiment for exactly the same flow cases and the numerical simulation, to allow reestimation of the constants of the model for complex geometries as it was done originally for simple and steady state configurations.
- Derive physically adapted transition modelling for upsteam boundary layer region of unsteady flow around aerofoils, especially at a high incidence.
The full phase-averaged Navier-Stokes equations with the adapted turbulence modelling will be solved by an efficient massively parallel code.
