I have produced trailing vortexes along the side of the 3D airfoil. Success!

Backflow, however, still remains very small (roughly only 1 mm from the wall) or non-existent, depending on the...

I ran the simulation as transient with adaptive time steps. There are no backflow or trailing vortex regions.

Any clues?

Thanks for the help, Glenn. I owe you a virtual beer.

I'll try running the simulation as transient and see how it goes.

The solution hasn't been converging, I just realized. I did a quick Solver analysis to guess the issues.

The v-Mom and w-Mom residuals did not converge.

Here are the locations of the maximum...

I just tried running the simulation with a 5 degree angle of attack (rather than 15) in order to avoid stall effects. Here's the result:

Modeling Backflow for a 3D Airfoil (Wing of Finite Span)

Hi everyone -

The purpose of my current simulation is to demonstrate the backflow caused by the leading edge of a 3D airfoil. The backflow occurs along the side of the airfoil in the span-wise...
