What is the difference between SST-K-W and SST-K-W with fully turbulence transitional

Hi everybody,

Could anybody explain "the difference between SST-K-W and SST-K-W with fully turbulence transitional option" for me?

Regards,
Mohammad

The SST turbulence model has an optional additional model which models laminar to turbulent transition.

Does this explain your question?

Hi Glenn

I just have the similar question in mind

Is having fully turbulent option turned on under Transitional Turbulence options of the SST model in CFX-Pre the same as having a default SST turbulence model (without activating transitional turbulence options) - the two-equation eddy-viscosity mode. Is this correct?

Cheers
Tom
