Hello.
I'm simulating flow around a 6 to 1 prolate spheroid at incidence. I'm trying to trip the boundary layer at x/L=0.2, to compare to experimental results w/ tripping. Has anyone done tripping in Star-CCM+? Would you suggest adding protusions to the geometry, or is there a way to change flow solvers from laminar to turbulent flow at x/L=0.2? Thanks in advance. Sincerely, Seyong. |

You will want to use the turbulence suppression model. Check out the help documentation under User Guide > Modeling Physics > Modeling Transition > Turbulence Suppression Model.
