This paper presents the evaluation of Stanford University Unstructured (SU2) open-source computational software package for a high Mach number 5 flow. The test case selected is an impinging shock wave turbulent boundary layer interaction (SWTBLI) on flat plate where experimental data Sch¨ulein et al. [27] used validation purposes. Two turbulence models, Spalart–Allmaras (SA) and k-ω Shear Stres...

One-dimensional unsteady Reynolds-averaged Navier–Stokes computations were performed for oscillatory transitional and turbulent pipe flows the results validated against existing experimental data a wide variety of Reynolds Womersley numbers. An version Johnson–King model was implemented with optional near-wall modification to account temporal pressure gradient variations, predictions compared t...

This study experimentally and numerically investigates the effects of nozzle/needle distance (clearance) supply pressure on single phase compressible gas flow in a micro orifice with needle restriction, which play important roles many engineering applications such as cryogenic cooling MEMS (microelectromechanical systems) device cooling. Nitrogen was used working fluid at pressures ranging from...

The aerodynamic performance of a cylinder Pitot probe for velocity measurements in compressible non-ideal gas flows, such as those encountered Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC) turbines, is investigated by means Computational Fluid Dynamics. Numerical simulations are performed at subsonic and transonic conditions, freestream Reynolds numbers the critical regime. working fluid organic vapour Novec™ 64...

The Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) equations for steady-state assessment of incompressible turbulent flows remain the workhorse practical computational fluid dynamics (CFD) applications. Consequently, improvements in speed or accuracy have potential to affect a diverse range We introduce machine learning framework surrogate modeling eddy viscosities RANS simulations, given initial condi...

We present results with a parallel CFD code that computes steady-state solutions of the Reynolds-Favre averaged Navier-Stokes equations for the simulation of the turbulent motion of compressible and incompressible Newtonian fluids. We report on preliminary experiments on 2D and 3D problems, for both internal and external flow configurations. In this communication we present numerical results wi...

One of the main limitations in computational aerodynamics lies ability CFD solvers to handle complex geometries while maintaining their accuracy. Among currently available strategies, Zonal Immersed Boundary Conditions (ZIBC) has shown its capability introduce geometrical details for simulations high Reynolds turbulent flows. In this context, work aims extend ZIBC framework, initially adapted r...
