Abstract

On aircraft aerodynamic design, wall-modeled large-eddy simulation (WMLES) is expected to improve accuracy of simulation on unsteady flow field such as transonic buffet on aircraft wing. This is essential to simulate flow around an aircraft across the full flight envelope with high fidelity. In this study, three requirements are proposed to ensure accuracy of WMLES with second-order accurate scheme, which is commonly used to treat highly complicated geometry with unstructured grid system. These requirements are related to 1) matching point height, 2) matching point cell index, and 3) grid resolution at the matching point, where matching point is overlap point of LES and the wall model. These requirements are validated on flat-plate turbulent boundary layer and shock/boundary-layer interaction flow. As a result, it is clarified that all of the proposed requirements are necessary to ensure the accuracy of mean velocity and Reynolds stresses.
