Steady-state analyses of the incompressible flow past a single-stage stator/rotor propulsion pump are presented and compared to experimental data. The purpose of the current study is to validate a numerical method for the design application of a typical propulsion pump and for the acoustic analysis based on predicted flowfields. A steady multiple-blade-row approach is used to calculate the flowfields of the stator and the rotor. The numerical method is based on a fully conservative control-volume technique. The Reynolds-averaged Navier–Stokes equations are solved along with the standard two-equation k–ε turbulence model. Numerical results for both mean flow and acoustic properties compare well with measurements in the wake of each blade row. The rotor blade has a thick boundary layer in the last quarter of the chord and the flow separates near the trailing edge. These features invalidate many Euler prediction results. Due to the dramatic reduction of the turbulent eddy viscosity in the thick boundary layer, the standard k–ε model cannot predict the correct local flow characteristics near the rotor trailing edge and in its near wake. Thus, a modification of the turbulence length scale in the turbulence model is applied in the thick boundary layer in response to the reduction of the turbulent eddy viscosity.

The present state-of-the-art ocean models use an eddy viscosity that depends on structure parameter (Cμ). In this paper we use a Reynolds stress anisotropy based formulation for the eddy viscosity because in addition to the value of turbulent kinetic energy, it also depends on the degree of anisotropy. The formulation is incorporated into the General Ocean Turbulence Model (GOTM) and simulated using the famous test case of Ocean Weather Station (OWS) Papa experiment. Even if there is not much of an improvement in terms of results with this model, it can be very easily incorporated into the ocean models removing cumbersome equations for structure parameters.

The flows around a typical open cavity with a store are numerically simulated in this paper. A fully implicit unfactored method is employed in the solver of RANS equations, where the S-A turbulent model is implemented to calculate the turbulent eddy viscosity. The flow-induced oscillation of the free shear layer around the cavity lip is captured and analyzed. Comparisons for the different cases of the cavity flow are made. The calculated results show that the pressure fluctuation is pertinent to the different positions of the store inside the cavity. The power spectral density (PSD) of the pressure by fast Fourier transformations (FFT) is also displayed in the paper. For the Rossiter's oscillatory mode, the numerical results compare well with the experimental data.
