Capability of Two Equation k-ω Turbulence Model to Predict Pressure Values on “Quarter-Circular” Object

Article Preview

Abstract:

Turbulence is a flow regime characterized by chaotic property changes. Randomness, fluctuations, vorticity and large Reynolds number (Re) are the basic characteristics of turbulent flows. In this contribution is Computer Fluid Dynamic simulation of air-flow over an obstacle in shape of “quarter-circular” object compared to the data from previous work. This comparison is focused on mean values of pressure in 16 selected points at different elevations. k-ω turbulence model performed well (convergence, time, CPU) and the overall error is 13.61 %.
