Zusammenfassung der Projektergebnisse

Insufficient resolution of vortex structures is one of the key problems in Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD). The overall objective of this project is the development and validation of numerical technologies that capture a wide range of vortical scales and improve the resolution of concentrated vortices in CFD. Two strategies are pursued in the project. One is based on the further development of the vorticity confinement method in combination with the grid free vortex method (CVM), while the other is a novel hybrid approach based on combination of the grid-based finite volume method (FVM) and the grid-free vortex method (CVM). Both of these developments are strongly interlinked through jointly developed algorithm of vortex structure identification, the implementation of both methods in FVM OpenFOAM and the validation by means of comparison with experimental result of Devenport et al. (NACA0012 at 5◦ angle of attack and Re = 530000) and Birch test case (NACA0015 oscillated at small angles of attack, Re = 186000). Advantages and limitations of the finite volume and grid free CVM methods as well as a crucial influence of the turbulence models are documented for the tip vortex flows. The methods, developed in the project, can be used for a wide spectrum of the fundamental and applied problems in fluid mechanics.
