Improved two-equation k-omega turbulence models for aerodynamic flows

TL;DR: In this article, two new versions of the k-omega two-equation turbulence model are presented, the baseline model and the Shear-Stress Transport model, which is based on the BSL model, but has the additional ability to account for the transport of the principal shear stress in adverse pressure gradient boundary layers.

Open‐channel Flow Measurements with a Laser Doppler Anemometer

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that the log-law can be applied strictly only to the nearwall region and the von K´rm´n constant κ and integral constant A are truly universal, having values of κ=0.412 and A=5.29 irrespective of the Reynolds and Froude number.

Features of a reattaching turbulent shear layer in divergent channel flow

TL;DR: In this article, experimental data have been obtained in an incompressible turbulent flow over a rearward-facing step in a diverging channel flow and mean velocities, Reynolds stresses, and triple products that were measured by a laser Doppler velocimeter are presented for two cases of tunnel wall divergence.

Analytical methods for the development of reynolds-stress closures in turbulence

TL;DR: The derivation of Reynolds-stress models for viscous incompressible turbulent flow on the basis of the Navier-Stokes and continuity equations is explored in an analytical review and the superior performance of the second-order models is demonstrated.

Numerical methods for hypersonic boundary layer stability

TL;DR: In this article, the authors compared various numerical methods for the solution of linear stability equations for compressible boundary layers and discussed both the global and local eigenvalue methods for temporal stability analysis.
