Hi,

Has anyone used RANS for simulating any moving boundaries (no slip walls)? What are disadvantages of RANS for such problems? I am dealing with separations at the wall as well.

Thanks,
A E

You should consider URANS ... A similar flow problem where URANS is quite common is the flow motion during the cycle of a piston in a cylinder. Check in literature for that

A known RANS/URANS model that can treat separation effects is the two-layer k-epsilon. But I don't know if it is good for moving wall.

Oh, thanks! By RANS I meant URANS. I will check out the piston motion literature.

Thanks Venturi for your reply. Most k-e models use damping functions for low Re numbers and apparently this causes many issues. But thanks for your comment, I will read more about it.
