The successful design of compressor blades through numerical optimization relies on accurate CFD-RANS solvers that are able to capture the general performance of a given design candidate. However, this is a difficult task to achieve in transonic flow con...

This paper presents the numerical characterization of a highly loaded compressor by means of 3D unsteady RANS simulations. The focus is on critical flow structures and their evolution at different operating points of the machine. First, the numerical set...

Air-cooled condensers (ACCs) are commonly found in power plants working with concentrated solar power or in steam power plants operated in regions with limited water availability. In ACCs, the flow of air is driven toward the heat exchangers by axial fan...

The variation in stability derivatives with airspeed and angles of attack and sideslip is determined using only the dependence of the aerodynamic forces and moments on the modulus and direction of the velocity. Analytic extrapolation factors are obtained...

The Reynolds-averaged Navier?Stokes (RANS)-based computational fluid dynamics (CFD) calculation using a two-equation turbulence model, such as the k?omega shear-stress transport (SST) model, is a mainstream method with sufficient accuracy for the estimat...

When a vehicle moves underwater, disturbance is generated and a wake remains that destroys the original free surface and produces a new wake. In order to study the mechanism and characteristics of the wave-making wake generated by the maneuvering motion ...
