Flow in a 3D diffuser
Confined flows
Underlying Flow Regime 4-16
Evaluation
Evaluation of the results
Both 3D diffuser configurations have served as test cases of the 13th and 14th ERCOFTAC SIG15 Workshops on refined turbulence modelling, Steiner et al. (2009) and Jakirlic et al. (2010b). In addition to different RANS models, the LES and LES-related methods (different seamless and zonal hybrid LES/RANS - HLR - models; DES - Detached Eddy Simulation) were comparatively assessed (visit www.ercoftac.org; under SIG15); the comparative analysis of selected results is presented in the section "Cross- Comparison of CFD calculations with experimental results" of the present contribution. Before starting with the latter, some key physical characteristics illustrated appropriately are discussed as follows.
Physical issues/characteristics of the flow in a 3D diffuser
Here an overview of the most important flow features posing a special challenge to the turbulence modeling is given. Their correct capturing is of decisive importance with respect to the quality of the final results. In order to illustrate these phenomena the experimental and DNS results are used along with some results obtained by LES, hybrid LES/RANS and RANS methods by the groups participating at the SIG15 workshop.
