A New Approach for Simulating Laminar Separation in PowerFLOW
The transition between laminar and turbulent flow is crucial to understanding fluid behavior in many scenarios, such as eVTOL propellers and wind turbine blades. Formerly, this transition was challenging to simulate accurately. An extension to the PowerFLOW Very Large Eddy Simulation (VLES) method provides easier and more accurate simulation of laminar flow separation and reattachment. This allows both aerodynamic and aeroacoustic simulations for applications in rapidly growing markets including urban air mobility and wind energy.
