Hmm, perhaps calibrating the correlation will improve things. But indeed the difference, especialy for case T3A is quite big.

For the airfoil case, I would like to do some xfoil simulations to...

You're welcome. That's what this forum is for.

I noticed that something was wrong when I saw the results for higher angles of attack, they were completely wrong. I think also your results will now...

Hi Felix,

I have a question about the correlation for ReThetac. You state that the CFX_v1.1 version is implemented according the AIAA paper of Langtry and Menter. In the source code I see that the...

Ok, I would suggest to try an airfoil first to get an idea of how this model works. And definitely read the thesis of Langtry. There are important mesh requirements on y+, stretching ratio and...

@salvatore

You have to compile a turbulence model as a library using: wmake libso

You can make a Make directory in the gammaThetatSST directory with two files: files and options.

files:...

@Felix

Indeed you can say that kOmegaSST is overpredicting lift. Did you observe this in your simulations as well?

I have done a grid convergence study and I'm confident that this solution is...

Hi Felix,

I agree with you on the drag coefficient. Unfortunately I don't have an experimental skin friction distribution to compare with.

I was a bit to quick on the lift. It makes sense that...

Ok, I have some first results using the default settings for the coefficients.

The case is a NACA63-618 airfoil at 0 degrees angle of attack. Re=6 million.
My grid has a maximum y+ of 0.48 and a...

Thank Felix!

I've been waiting for a transition model for a long time, but didn't have the time to implement it myself.

I'm running some airfoil tests at the moment. If the results for 0deg are...
