Transition SST on laminar flow? -- CFD Online Discussion Forums

August 6, 2019, 16:13	Transition SST on laminar flow?	#1
TU_Hiwi New Member Lukas Join Date: Jul 2018 Posts: 20 Rep Power: 7	Hey Guys, I am currently modelling a case where I suspect the flow to be laminar but I am not sure since it a complex geometry. Since applying a turbulence model when there is no turbulence to model has an (negative) impact on the results, I thought it should be safe to use the transition SST since its capable of modelling both, laminar and turbulent. Is this a wrong guess? Any hits, tricks or literature tips? Greetings Lukas Светлана likes this.
