2D Zero Pressure Gradient Flat Plate Validation Case

Wilcox2006-klim-m Model Results

Wilcox2006-klim-m - cf vs Retheta Wilcox2006-klim-m - u+ vs y+ at Retheta=10000

Previously on this page the results were reported as Wilcox2006-klim solutions, but more properly they should be referred to as Wilcox2006-klim-m. Essentially no difference is expected.

Above Wilcox2006-klim-m results are from CFL3D and FUN3D on the 545x385 grid. Both CFL3D and FUN3D 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 from CFL3D are given here for reference: w06-cf_cfl3d.dat and w06-upyp_cfl3d.dat. A typical FUN3D input file is: fun3d.nml_typical_w06_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.
