Numerical simulation of the influence of energy deposition on the base flow

Abstract

In the Reynolds equations with the Shear Stress Transport (SST) turbulence model, the numerical simulation of the effect of the energy input into the stream in front of the bow and the side surface on the base flow has been performed. For the regimes considered, it has been shown that the energy input before the bow, resulting in a significant reduction of wave resistance has little effect on the value of the base pressure. This ensures the efficiency of the energy input as a means of reducing the drag force. For the considered regimes, it has been shown that the input of energy around the lateral surface leads to a small increase in the base pressure.
