چکیده
This paper reports on recent efforts with the ultimate goal to obtain a fully self-consistent picture of turbulent boundary layer separation. To this end, it is shown first how the classical theory of turbulent small-defect boundary layers can be generalised rigorously to boundary layers with a slightly larger, i.e. moderately large, velocity defect and, finally, to situations where the velocity defect is of O(1). In the latter case, the formation of short recirculation zones describing marginally separated flows is found possible, as described in a rational manner.

Numerical Simulation of Separation Bubble on Elliptic Cylinders Using Three-equation k-? Turbulence Model
Occurrence of laminar separation bubbles on solid walls of an elliptic cylinder has been simulated using a recently developed transitional model for boundary layer flows. Computational method is based on the solution of the Reynolds averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) equations and the eddy-viscosity concept. Transitional model tries to simulate streamwise fluctuations, induced by freestream turbulen...
متن کاملStudy of Parameters Affecting Separation Bubble Size in High Speed Flows using k-ω Turbulence Model
Shock waves generated at different parts of vehicle interact with the boundary layer over the surface at high Mach flows. The adverse pressure gradient across strong shock wave causes the flow to separate and peak loads are generated at separation and reattachment points. The size of separation bubble in the shock boundary layer interaction flows depends on various parameters. Reynolds-averaged...

متن کاملA Composite Finite Difference Scheme for Subsonic Transonic Flows (RESEARCH NOTE).
This paper presents a simple and computationally-efficient algorithm for solving steady two-dimensional subsonic and transonic compressible flow over an airfoil. This work uses an interactive viscous-inviscid solution by incorporating the viscous effects in a thin shear-layer. Boundary-layer approximation reduces the Navier-Stokes equations to a parabolic set of coupled, non-linear partial diff...
متن کاملTurbulent Marginal Separation and the Turbulent Goldstein Problem
A new rational theory of incompressible turbulent boundary layer flows having a large velocity defect is presented on basis of the Reynolds-averaged Navier–Stokes equations in the limit of infinite Reynolds number. This wake-type formulation allows for, among others, the prediction of singular solutions of the boundary layer equations under the action of a suitably controlled adverse pressure g...
