Abstract
A new delayed detached-eddy simulation (DDES) model is formulated that demonstrate both improved modeling of the near-wall physics and numerical robustnesss for industrial applications. For the majority of the flow, DDES formulations predict the correct level of turbulent shear stress and, therefore, a similar velocity profile to that of the reference large eddy simulation (LES) and experimental data. The higher level of resolved turbulence for the shear-stress transport SST?DDES model means there will be greater fluid mixing in the recirculation zone. The oncoming flow is characterized by a zero-pressure-gradient turbulent boundary layer, whose thickness is approximately 57% of the hump height measured at the upstream extent of the domain. The DDES model predicts the correct recirculation strength and matches the experimental reattachment point more closely than the SST?DDES model.
