Abstract

Freestream turbulence has a significant influence on the process of laminar separation. In the present work this effect is investigated with respect to the variation of turbulence intensity in the flow separation on a quasi two-dimensional airfoil configuration. Predicting flow separation requires resolving the turbulence or part thereof in the simulation. Since fully resolving the turbulence does not appear being affordable in the present context a hybrid turbulence model has been applied.
