Abstract

The Spalart-Allmaras one-equation turbulence model has been implemented and validated in the PMB3D code, which is a parallel multi-block computational fluid dynamics (CFD) code developed at the University of Glasgow. Different test cases including turbulent flows around RAE2822 Cases 9 and 10, NLR-F5 wing, ONERA A aerofoil, AGARD Case CT2 and 18% circular arc aerofoil have been performed. In general when compared with the experimental data, the performance of the S-A model is good. For some test cases, results of this model are also compared with the k—w two-equation turbulence model. It has been observed that the S-A model is similar to the two-equation k — w model in attached flows.
