I read this paper before. It seems that CFD using full turbulence model cannot predict the Cl as well as that using transitional models. I get nearly the same conclusion. But I can't explain it. I...

Thanks a lot~
I have heard some interesting comments that people who doing experiments and CFD never trust what they get. Maybe I expect too much from CFD. As the Cl is 0.1469 at 0 AOA, I just...

Currently, I just simulate the steady case.
I don't quite understand what you you mean by "change it to time dependent". If you mean simulating unsteady case, for FLUENT, it includes unsteady solver...

Thank you~
What I want to investigate is on wind turbine. Just because lots of experimental and simulating data are available for S809. This is easy to compare for my first stage of simulation.

Well~Coupled scheme for pressure-velocity coupling does seem to work. But the reason still remains not clear. As I know somebody does use normal SIMPLE to get the convergent results~
Thanks a lot~...

Thank you very much.
For pressure-far-field BC, I just try to simulate flow field around an airfoil at 0 deg AOA. When I use velocity-inlet & outflow BC using Transition SST model (turbulence model...

Thanks a lot for your kind advices.
Well, as I change the chord length of the airfoil, and then using Standard discretization instead of Two order, a convergent result is obtained. But if I change...

Hi~
I tried to reduce the chord length of the airfoil from 1 to 0.5, kept the Reynolds number constant and the Mach number became 0.17. But unfortunately, it didn't get convergent well as I had...

Thanks~
Well, maybe I have misled you. From one version of FLUENT, it is using the density/pressure-based solver instead of compressible/incompressible solver.

Well, that's what is frustrating me most, everything seems right except the results. From the point of grid, methodology, physics.
I still get another question, as you see, Re=rou*u*L/miu, when I...

Thanks for your advice. But the rectangular seems almost the same with the C-type domain at the wake area of the airfoil, besides, C-type domain may have a grid with higher quality on the left of the...

Well, in fact, I was using a pressure-based method (incompressible solver) only changed the material from normal air to ideal-gas, as for FLUENT, only the ideal-gas can use pressure-far-field BC. I...

Hi~ Thanks for your reply
The pressure-far-field BC is often adopted when simulating wind turbine airfoil as I know from others. Compared to inlet and outflow BCs, it has low chance to introduce...

Unhappy Would anybody be so kind to help me?

Hope my poor English won't stop your procedure to continue reading.

I try to construct a better grid, and try different topologies. But, still, it is not easy to get a convergent result using...
