THE COMPUTATION OF UNSTEADY FLOWS AROUND THREE DIMENSIONAL WINGS ON DYNAMICALLY DEFORMING MESH

변형격자계를 이용한 3차원 날개 주변의 비정상 유동 해석

Deforming mesh should be used when bodies are deforming or moving relative to each other due to the presence of aerodynamic forces and moments. Also, the flow solver for such a flow problem should satisfy the geometric conservation law to ensure the accuracy of the solutions. In this paper, a RANS(Reynolds Averaged Navier-Stokes) solver including automatic mesh capability using TFI(Transfinite Interpolation) method and GCL is developed and applied to flows induced by oscillating wings with given frequencies. The computations are performed both on deforming meshes and on rigid meshes. The computational results are compared with experimental data, which shows a good agreement.
