Turbulent compressible axisymmetric flows computation with the K-Epsilon model
Abstract
A new technique is proposed to compute axisymmetric flows. Turbulence modelling is done with a k-e model for high Reynolds number regions and a k-L one-equation model for near-wall regions. Moreover, a new robust algorithm for the turbulent equations is presented. A hypersonic boundary layer on a cone and a detached fully turbulent base flow are presented as test cases.
