Abstract
A “laminar + transition criteria” model utilizingReθ/MeandReCFcriteria in conjunction with an intermittency functionΓis developed in this paper. With pretreated computational grid and total enthalpyh0=(h0,∞)maxcriteria the boundary layer edge and crossflow velocity can be obtained by using parallel methodology. Validation is accomplished via HIFiRE-5 and a blunt cone with small angle of attack. Results show that computedReθ/MeandReCFdistributions are similar to theN-factor for streamwise instability and crossflow instability from linear PSE methods. The shape and trend of transition regions predicted by the “laminar + transition criteria” model in HIFiRE-5 and blunt cone are in good agreement with the experiment and DNS. However, for the transition induced by inflection point on streamwise velocity profiles, using criteria related to boundary layer thickness is inappropriate and can predict transition onset prematurely.
