This work assesses the performance of two single-equation eddy viscosity transport models that are based on Menter’s transformation of the kk-εε and the kk-ωω closures. The coefficients of both models are set exactly the ...

This work presents an optimized design of a dynamic rotor vertical-axis wind turbine (DR VAWT) which maximizes the operational tip-speed ratio (TSR) range and the average power coefficient (Cp) value while maintaining a ...

Flow past a X-45 UCAV planform involves the complex generation and interaction of vortices, their breakdown and occurrence of surface separation and stall. A cinema technique of high-image-density particle image velocimetry, ...

This work proposes an improved form of Menter's single-equation eddy viscosity transport model. The new transport equation follows from the transformation of the k-ε closure that includes the Yap-correction term, which is ...

Laminar-turbulent transition may have considerable influence on the performance of moderate and high-speed aerodynamic vehicles. The two recently developed transition-sensitive models, SST-TR and , are employed to assess ...
