Research abstract
Metacomp Technologies proposes an innovative approach to simulate, through modeling, the effect of flow-control actuators on the flow. In this approach the underlying flow is simulated using URANS (Unsteady Reynolds Averaged Navier Stokes) or LES (Large Eddy Simulation). The flow induced by the actuator itself is modeled in a way that is not affected by the time-step size used to integrate the base flow. This approach also obviates the need to resolve the smaller spatial scales (dictated by the size of the actuators). The proposed approach is ideal for efficient, cost-effective simulation of large scale flow control.
