Estimation of the lifetime of a trapped vortex in a circular cavern on a semicircular airfoil streamlined at a zero angle of attack after switching off slot suction

Resumo

The restructuring of the periodic structure of a turbulent streamline for a semicircular airfoil at a zero angle of attack with a system of slot suction from the circular cavern switched off is calculated. Multiblock numerical methods are applied for solution of Reynolds-averaged nonstationary Navier–Stokes equations closed using the modified shear-stress transfer model taking into account flow line curvature. The lifetime of a trapped vortex in a circular cavern is estimated.
