“…General-purpose research codes are available for many engineering applications such as aerospace (Meakin and Wissink, 1999;Bush et al, 1998), ship hydrodynamics (Hyams et al, 2000;Larsson et al, 2000), and turbomachinery (Chima, 2001;Hall et al, 1999) whereas other applications, such as automobile and industrial processes, primarily take advantage of commercial codes. Most codes, especially commercial ones, can handle more than one application.…”

“…With this in mind, NASA John H. Glenn Research Center at Lewis Field (hereafter referred to as NASA Glenn) has implemented two VG models into the Wind-US Navier-Stokes code [1][2][3]. Previous works describe the Wendt empirical VG model and its implementation [4,5].…”

Modeling Vortex Generators in a Navier-Stokes Code

A source-term model that simulates the effects of vortex generators was implemented into the Wind-US NavierStokes code. The source term added to the Navier-Stokes equations simulates the lift force that would result from a vane-type vortex generator in the flowfield. The implementation is user-friendly, requiring the user to specify only three quantities for each desired vortex generator: the range of grid points over which the force is to be applied and the planform area and angle of incidence of the physical vane. The model behavior was evaluated for subsonic flow in a rectangular duct with a single vane vortex generator, subsonic flow in an S-duct with 22 corotating vortex generators, and supersonic flow in a rectangular duct with a counter-rotating vortex-generator pair. The model was also used to successfully simulate microramps in supersonic flow by treating each microramp as a pair of vanes with opposite angles of incidence. The validation results indicate that the source-term vortex-generator model provides a useful tool for screening vortex-generator configurations and gives comparable results to solutions computed using gridded vanes.

“…A solver meeting these criteria is the Wind code [ 14 , and the NXAIR code [23 -241 (the primary solver used at AEDC for store separation problems). As such, it is a Government-owned, three-dimensional, general-purpose flow solver for the timedependent, compressible, Euler and Reynolds-Averaged Navier-S tokes (RANS) equations.…”
