McKelvey School of Engineering Theses & Dissertations
The main focus of this thesis is on the simulation of flow past a three-dimensional wing-body configuration (DLR-F6) in ground effect; a complex 3D wing-body configuration in ground effect has never been analyzed in the aerodynamics literature to date. For the purpose of validation of the simulation approach, computations are performed for the DLR-F6 wing-body in unbounded flow and are compared with the experimental data. The commercial CFD solver ANSYS FLUENT is employed for computations. Compressible Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) equations in conjunction with Spalart-Allmaras (SA) and - Shear Stress Transport (SST) turbulence models are solved. The validated code is employed …
