Computation of turbulent near wake for asymmetric airfoilsA numerical procedure for studying the turbulent near wake of two dimensional airfoil sections is presented. The Reynolds Navier-Stokes equations were written for flow about bodies of arbitrary geometry and solved on an arbitrary nonuniform curvilinear computational mesh. Eddy viscosity and Reynolds stress turbulence transport models are considered. Specific examples are shown for airfoil section by using an algebraic viscosity model with streamwise relaxation and the interactive Reynolds stress model.
