Turbulence Models vailable in SU2

shahidhk21 · January 4, 2022, 01:32

I want to know which turbulence models are available in SU2? Are only SST and SA and its derivatives available? What about k-w or k-epsilon models and others?

The list of turbulence models available can be found in config_template.cfg
Have a look there and maybe you will find something you're looking for. Not much of a choice there though.

All the available models are available in template configuration file or only some of them are written there as a reference?

All models are mentioned in config_template.cfg. Basically SA and SST models. SST is a k-omega model. k-epsilon is a historical model that is still much used because of it's robustness but it does not offer better results compared to SST.

There are also DES and LES models available if RANS is not sufficient and if you have the computational power available.

Thanks. I got it.
