Transonic flows are where turbulence models go to fail. My research, spanning hybrid RANS-LES simulation and wind tunnel experiments, is about making them fail less.
Publications
-
Application of Hybrid-Temporal LES to Shock-Induced Boundary Layer Separation in Hyperloop Flows
Evaluates hybrid-temporal LES for shock-induced boundary layer separation in hyperloop-like flows and shows stable, computationally practical improvement over baseline RANS for drag and separation prediction near choking conditions.
-
Assessment of Under-Resolved Hybrid Scale-Resolving CFD Methods for Transonic Buffet over Blunt Bodies
Assesses low-resolution hybrid RANS-LES approaches for blunt-body transonic buffet and reports improved transient/separation prediction versus RANS with manageable computational cost.
