Abstract

In the present study, an algebraic equilibrium wall model previously developed for hexahedral elements is extended to handle mixed meshes including prismatic, tetrahedral and pyramidal elements in the context of a discontinuous high-order method. This extension is needed for complex geometries, for which high-order mixed elements (e.g. tetrahedral and pyramidal elements) are often necessary near solid walls to avoid meshing challenges. Various design decisions are discussed to achieve the best performance on massively parallel CPU/GPU architectures for a production level high-order large eddy simulation (LES) solver based on the FR/CPR method, hpMusic. The extension to other elements is first evaluated using a benchmark channel flow problem at a high Reynolds number. After that, flow over the NASA Common Research Model high-lift (CRM-HL) configuration from the 4th AIAA High-lift Prediction Workshop is computed to further test the new implementation. Computational results are compared with experimental data.
