Numerical simulation of the transonic turbulent flow around a wedge-shaped body with a backward-facing step

Resumo

A fully three-dimensional near-wall complex turbulent flow around a wedge-shaped body with a backward-facing step is considered with the transonic flow regime (Mach number M = 0.913) at the Reynolds number Re = 7.2 × 10⁶. The technology of the numerical simulation of problems of the class under study is represented in detail. A series of preliminary auxiliary calculations is carried out for choosing the optimal computational algorithm. The numerical results of the problem simulation based on the eddy-resolving hybrid RANS-LES approach IDDES are finally given for the full configuration. The validity of the results obtained is confirmed by comparing them to the corresponding experimental data.
