Abstract

The article deals with numerical solution of the laminar-turbulent transition. A mathematical model consists of the Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equations, which are completed by the explicit algebraic Reynolds stress model (EARSM) of turbulence. The algebraic model of laminar-turbulent transition, which is integrated to the EARSM, is based on the work of Kubacki and Dick (Int. J. Heat Fluid Flow 58, 68–83, 2016) where the turbulent kinetic energy is split in to the small-scale and large-scale parts. The algebraic model is simple and does not require geometry data such as wall-normal distance and all formulas are calculated using local variables. A numerical solution is obtained by the finite volume method based on the HLLC scheme and explicit Runge-Kutta method.
