A hybrid numerical simulation method was established by combining the Spalart-Allmaras (SA) turbulence model and detached eddy simulation (DES). Numerical simulations were carried out to model cold and hot spray conditions of a nozzle without considering the internal flow of an engine to determine jet conditions. Analysis results show that the calculated hot spray results more in line with the reality. The jet effect of a typical aircraft engine was simulated numerically to determine the distance influenced by the jet blast from a departing aircraft engine.

In this paper, detached eddy simulation method is applied to the numerical simulation for whole passage of a model hydro turbine. The method combines the strong points of Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes and Large eddy simulation. In this model, Spalart–Allmaras turbulent model is improved, which reduces to a RANS formulation near a solid surface and to a subgrid model away from the wall. The hexahedron type mesh is used to divide the model, which can decrease the mesh scale and computation cost. In this paper, a unsteady turbulent simulation is done for model hydro turbine with this viscous model. The internal flow, vortex motion and pressure fluctuation inside hydro turbine can be studied from the result, which are also compared with the experiment data. It can be seen that this method can describe the complex flow of the turbine well while the mesh density is not very high.

Abstract. In order to design future large wind turbines, knowledge is needed about the impact of aero-elasticity on the rotor loads and performance, and about the physics of the atmospheric flow surrounding the turbines. The objective of the present work is to study both effects by means of high fidelity rotor-resolved numerical simulations. In particular, unsteady computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations of a 2.3 MW wind turbine rotor are conducted, this rotor being the largest design with relevant experimental data available to the authors. Turbulence is modeled with two different approaches. On one hand, the well established improved delayed detached eddy simulation (IDDES) model is employed. An additional set of simulations relies on a novel hybrid turbulence model, developed within the framework of the present work. It consists on the blending of a large eddy simulation (LES) model for atmospheric flow by Deardorff with an IDDES model for the separated flow near the rotor geometry. In the same way, the assessment of the influence of the blade flexibility is performed by comparing two different sets of computations. A first group accounts for a structural multi body dynamic (MBD) model of the blades. The MBD solver was coupled to the CFD solver during run time with a staggered fluid structure interaction (FSI) scheme. The second set of simulations uses the original rotor geometry, without accounting for any structural deflection. The results of the present work show no significant difference between the IDDES and the hybrid turbulence model. However, it is expected that future simulations of more complex stratification and longer domains will benefit from the developed hybrid model. In a similar manner, and due to the fact that the considered rotor was relatively stiff, the loading variation introduced by the blade flexibility was found to be negligible when compared to the influence of inflow turbulence. The simulation method validated here is considered highly relevant for future turbine designs, where the impact of blade elasticity will be significant and the detailed structure of the atmospheric inflow will be important.

The numerical simulation method of active flow control technology was studied in this paper. The simplified mathematical model of the active flow control is established with unsteady velocity boundary condition at the specific location of model surface. The reliability of flow control model was verified by standard cases of CFDVAL2004, and the capability of capturing micro-jet flow characteristics for Spalart-Allmaras (SA) and Menter’s Shear Stress Transport (SST) turbulence model were analyzed. The results showed that the accuracy of SA turbulence model is better than the SST model, and flow control model meet the accuracy requirements for numerical simulation method.

This paper first introduces the basic theory of CFD method, including basic control equations, finite volume method, control equation solving algorithm and turbulence model selection. Second, based on OpenFOAM, an open-source fluid mechanics software, a numerical simulation method of vertical axis tidal turbine was proposed by using k-ω SST turbulence model and PIMPLE algorithm. The hydrodynamic characteristics of the vertical axis turbine were studied, and the calculation results were compared with experiments. The higher consistency proves the feasibility of the numerical simulation method proposed in this paper. Finally, the influence of inlet turbulence on numerical simulation was explored, and a set of effective CFD simulation strategies was concluded, which provided a valuable reference for future CFD simulation and research on vertical axis tidal turbines.
