Turbulence modelling improvement for highly detached unsteady aerodynamic flows by statistical and hybrid approaches

This paper analyses the performances of adapted URANS and DES turbulence^modelling for high-Reynolds 2D and 3D aerodynamic flows with a pronounced periodic character. The flow configurations is the NACA0012 airfoil in pitch (experimental test-case by Mc Croskey & Mc Alistair, 1976) at Reynolds number 0.98x10^6, as well as the inherently unsteady...
