2D Zero Pressure Gradient Flat Plate Validation Case
BSLm Model Results
Link to BSLm equations
Previously on this page the results were reported as BSL solutions, but more properly they should be referred
to as BSLm. Essentially no difference is expected.
Above BSLm results are from CFL3D and FUN3D on the 545x385 grid.
Both codes used freestream turbulence intensity=0.039% and freestream turbulent viscosity (relative to laminar)=0.009
(additional details can be found in the CFL3D User's Manual, Appendix H).
Please read note 5 on Notes on running CFD page.
The right-hand plot is extracted from the location where Retheta=10000.
Note that these are compressible code results
at "essentially incompressible" conditions of M=0.2.
There may be a very small influence of compressibility.
The CFD postprocessed data files are given here for reference:
bsl-cf_cfl3d.dat and
bsl-upyp_cfl3d.dat.
A typical CFL3D input file is:
cfl3d_typical_bsl.inp.
A typical FUN3D input file is:
fun3d.nml_typical_bsl_2.
Note that this model is currently assigned
MRR Level 2 for the purposes of this website.
This is because at this time the TMBWG has results for this model
from two different codes from the same home organization.
The results on this page are therefore not necessarily
reliable until additional independent code(s) can be used to verify the model implementation.
