Abstract: | The present article deals with recent numerical results from on-going research conducted at ONERA/DMAE regarding the validation
of turbulence models for unsteady transonic flows, in which the mechanism of the shock-wave/boundary-layer interaction is
important. The main goal is to predict the onset and extent of shock induced oscillations (SIO) that appear over the suction
side of two-dimensional rigid airfoils and lead to the formation of unsteady separated areas. Computations are performed with
the ONERA object-oriented software "elsA", using the URANS-type approach. In this approach, the unsteady mean turbulent flow
is resolved using the standard Reynolds-averaged Navier–Stokes (RANS) equations and closure relationships involving standard
transport equation-type models without any explicit modification due to unsteadiness. Applications are provided and discussed
for two different test cases, one of which is rather well documented for CFD validation and described by mean-flow, phase-averaged
and fluctuating data. Results demonstrate the importance of modelling the upper and lower walls of the test section when trying
to capture SIO as precisely as possible with 2D computations, even though the adaptation of wind tunnel walls had been carefully
considered. Finally, turbulence validation has been performed using one- and two-transport equation-type models, one of them
resulting from in-house investigations for other turbulent flows applications. |
