Numerical Investigation on Resistance Reducing Effect by Mass Injection through Porous Wall

Article Preview

Abstract:

A numerical study of flow in two-dimensional turbulent boundary layer flow with mass injection through a porous wall is conducted by Reynolds averaged numerical simulation (RANS) in this paper. Numerical results with available experimental data show that Wilcox (2006) k-w turbulence model can give good prediction in this complex flow. The comparison between mass injection and no mass injection for the local frictional resistance coefficient are performed. Numerical investigation indicates that mass injection may reduce the resistance significantly, which is confirmed by comparison of velocity profiles qualitatively.
