Hi
I'm trying perform an analysis on the NACA63-451 foil for my dissertation, this includes capturing the boundary layer separation. Using the un-altered SST model it delays the separation point at high AoAs. Using Ansys student, if the a1=0.28 (instead of 0.31) this correctly predicts the separation point (and hence Cl/Cd). For various licence limitations I need to repeat this on SU2. I've tried changing the constant in the source code in this file: CTurbSSTSolver.cpp Via file path: su2code-SU2-f999853\SU2_CFD\src\solvers This made zero difference to the transient and converged part of the solution, my supervisor confirmed to me it should produce a similar effect to the Ansys change. Just wondering if the constants are defined elsewhere that I am missing? I've tried looking through the source code as much as I can and attempted to google for solutions, but a bit stumped now. Sorry if I'm just missing it completely! Many thanks Robert |
