Unsteady Flow Around a NACA0021 Airfoil Beyond Stall at 60° Angle of Attack

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: IUTAM Bookseries ((IUTAMBOOK,volume 14))

Abstract

The flow around thick and symmetric NACA0021 airfoil at angle of attack 60°, is studied at the Reynolds number based on the chord length \(Re = \frac{{U_\infty C}}{\nu } = 2.7 \times 10^5 \). Hybrid Detached Eddy Simulation (DES) approaches are used, with improvement by means of Organised Eddy Simulation (OES) in the context of the URANS part.
