The Flux Reconstruction Method/ Correction Procedure via Reconstruction (FR/ CPR) is a high-order numerical method for computational fluid dynamics. It combines the Finite Element method and the Finite Volume method, with a polynomial distribution of variables in a computational cell, and Riemann solver applied at the cell boundaries. The FR/ CPR method has a similar resolving ability to the fa...

Numerical simulations of time-periodic flows are an essential design tool for a wide range of engineered systems, including jet engines, wind turbines and flapping wings. Conventional solvers for time-periodic flows are limited in accuracy and efficiency by the low-order Finite Volume and time-marching methods they typically employ. These methods introduce significant numerical dissipation in t...

Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulations were performed to predict the interference drag produced by two streamlined struts intersecting at various angles in transonic flow since no relevant experimental data are available for use in design studies. The one-equation Spalart-Allmaras turbulence model was employed in a RANS formulation assuming fully-turbulent flow. Selected cases were run ...

An improved coupling of immersed boundary method and turbulence wall models on Cartesian grids is proposed, for producing smooth surface pressure skin friction at high Reynolds numbers.
