OpenFoam Transition modelling : kklOmega

Ranjan · August 12, 2015, 19:36

Hello Foamers

I am currently working on a case in which I need to get near accurate cl & cd data for a 4 digit NACA airfoil at Re 500,000. I have used simpleFoam earlier and found it to be accurate only in the pre stall regime.

I have setup the case in pimpleFoam and I intend to use kklOmega turbulence model. However, even though there are a few literature resources, I am not able to figure out the correct numeric schemes.

Can anybody advice ?

Thanks in advance

What schemes did you use in your simpleFoam cases? Could you provide some figures?
