This article presents a novel approach for predicting transition locations over airfoils, which
are used to activate turbulence model in a Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes flow solver …

In a subsonic boundary layer, a forward-facing step (FFS) or a backward-facing step (BFS)
usually destabilizes the oncoming Tollmien–Schlichting (TS) waves, leading to a promotion …

Reliable prediction of the effect of surface irregularities on laminar-turbulent transition (LTT)
is of great importance for many industrial applications. At low levels of free-stream …

Inducing spanwise motions in the vicinity of solid boundaries alters the energy, mass and/or
momentum transfer. Under some conditions, these motions are such that drag is reduced …

A computational methodology is presented for calculating the spatial evolution of Tollmien–
Schlichting (T–S) waves and their amplitude growth-rate factor in substantially nonparallel …

The presence of surface irregularities like humps or indentations can cause regions of
localized strong streamwise gradients in the basic flow quantities. These large gradients can …

Aircraft safety and weight are the most critical design considerations. The fuselage is an
important part of the plane. Depending on how the mass of the fuselage is distributed, the …

Представлена вычислительная методология, предназначенная для расчета
пространственной эволюции волн Толлмина-Шлихтинга и показателя роста их …

Flow transition from laminar to turbulent regime is marked by instability characteristics of the
former. The question of transition evolves into how stable the incoming flow is. Linear …

Stability analysis in the framework of fluid dynamics is often expressed in terms of a complex
eigenvalue problem (EVP). The solution of this EVP describes underlying flow features and …
