Speaker: Benjamin Duda
Biography: Dr. Benjamin Duda started a post-doctoral fellowship at NASA Langley Research Center, working on hybrid RANS/LES turbulence modeling. He received his Ph.D. in fluid dynamics from ISAE Toulouse, where he was working on scale-resolving simulations for jets in cross flow. The work for this industry-sponsored doctoral research study was carried out at Airbus and Ansys and supervised by ONERA.
Abstract: Numerical methods for the simulation of hot jets in cross flow at high Reynolds numbers and small momentum ratios are presented. Different turbulence modeling strategies, i.e. URANS, SAS, DDES and ELES, are validated against experimental data on a generic configuration, highlighting the necessity of scale-resolution for a correct prediction of thermal mixing. The analysis of transient flow simulations allows the identification of inherent flow dynamics as well as mixing phenomena and the application of the Proper Orthogonal Decomposition revealed the lateral wake meandering as being one of them. Due to the multi-scale problem which arises when simulating jets in cross flow on real aircraft configurations, the sequential approach based on the SAS turbulence model is introduced. As results for the exhaust of a nacelle anti-icing system comprising multiple jets in cross flow agree well with flight test data, the approach is applied in a last step to the complex exhaust of a pre-cooling system, emphasizing the capabilities of this methodology in an industrial environment.

ERCOFTAC is proud to announce a two day course on Transition Modelling.
Aims
In the past three decades, significant progress has been made in the development of turbulence models, due to the effort of many research groups. However, in many applications, the important effect of laminar-turbulent transition has only been included in a very primitive way such as by tripping boundary layers based on empirical criteria. With the general growth of the use and importance of CFD methods and the increased wish for more accurate simulations, the need has grown for more reliable transition prediction methods. This has resulted in an intense development of transition modelling approaches in the last decade.
The aim of the course is to discuss the physical phenomena in different transition processes and the appropriate approaches for modelling them. The focus of the course is on external aerodynamic flows and internal turbomachinery flows.
In aerodynamic flows, transition is typically the result of flow instability of Tollmien-Schlichting type or cross flow type. In turbomachinery flows, the main transition mechanism is bypass transition imposed on the boundary layers by high levels of free stream turbulence.
Specifically, the course aims to provide:
- An overview of transition modelling approaches
- A discussion of transition mechanisms
- Detailed discussion of approaches, dependent on the application area
- Recommendation for appropriate and effective application of transition models
