Underlying Flow Regime 3-36

Abstract

The Underlying Flow Regime (UFR) studied here, is a Turbulent Boundary layer (TBL) subjected to an adverse pressure gradient (APG) inducing flow separation on a smooth curved surface. The physically and industrially significant flow phenomenon remains challenging to predict with state-of-the-art RANS turbulence models despite the numerous existing experimental and numerical studies. Popular examples are the 2D NASA Wall-mounted Hump of Greenblatt et al. [‌1][‌2] as well as the curved backward facing step [‌3][‌4]. For both cases, experimental data, LES/DNS-data as well as results from RANS turbulence models exist [‌4][‌5].

In contrast to the latter test cases, the UFR described here was designed by the German Aerospace Center (DLR) as a purely numerical test case that cannot be directly transferred to a wind tunnel experiment. The geometry is part of a family of four different geometries, each with two different Reynolds numbers ( and ) based on the step height H. The objective is to provide a test case suitable for DNS computations to generate a comprehensive database that can be exploited by data-driven approaches employing Machine Learning (ML). The final designs are based on a study applying several state-of-the-art Reynold-Averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) models as well as on an experimental test case designed by NASA [‌6].

From the four configurations designed for the purpose, only one is presented in this UFR for which DNS data is made available by the University of Bergamo.
