The Flow Around a Surface Combatant at 10$$^\circ $$ Static Drift: Assessment of Turbulence Models

This paper presents a computational study of the flow around DTMB 5415 at \(10^\circ \) static drift. Two RANS (Reynolds Averaged Navier-Stokes) turbulence models, as isotropic k-\(\omega SST and non linear anisotropic EARSM (Explicit Algebraic Reynolds Stress Model) one hybrid RANS-LES model, DES (Detached Eddy Simulation) based on \), are used with solver ISIS-CFD. All numerical results compared to experimental data. The show that model is able predict correctly behavior in core SDTV (Sonar Dome Tip Vortex), particularly high level kinetic energy.
