【 摘 要 】

NASA’s Transformational Tools and Technologies Project (T(cu.) is supporting a substantial effort to investigate the formation and origin of separation bubbles found on wing-body juncture zones: the Juncture Flow experiment. The first phase of the Juncture Flow experiment, performed in NASA Langley’s 14- by 22-Foot Subsonic Tunnel, has been completed. This paper documents the CFD analysis done in conjunction with the experiment. Comparisons between CFD simulations and wind tunnel experimental results will be shown. Oil flow results, surface pressure cuts, velocity profiles, and Reynolds stress profiles will be compared. Preliminary results analyzing the effect of grid resolution, wind tunnel walls, and turbulence models on the above data will be presented. The results are not meant to be a validation study, but more as an evaluation of the current status of Reynolds averaged Navier Stokes (RANS) CFD simulations.
