Coupling PSE and FLUENT to Predict Laminar-Turbulent Transition in Boundary Layers

Abstract:

In this paper, the coupling method of PSE and FLUENT was experimented for predicting the laminar-turbulent transition. The software FLUENT was used to get the basic flow over a flat plate. A two-dimensional T-S wave and a pair of three-dimensional T-S waves were fed in at the entrance. The transition criterion was verified by DNS results. The availability of the coupling methodology has been evaluated.
