abstract

  • 2018 by the authors of the abstracts. In this paper, we have simulated the turbulent flow over a square cylinder using a novel CFD modeling technique, Partially Averaged Navier-Stokes (PANS) [1], the method that bridges RANS with DNS. All normal stresses and Reynolds stresses have been calculated at various locations from the cylinder. It has been shown that this method is capable of capturing the properties of highly unsteady turbulent flows and gives better results than RANS. The PANS results are compared with our simulated RANS results and available experimental results [2] which are good in agreement. The simulation has been performed in 48 parallel processor.
