Source term model for streamwise Rod Vortex Generator modelling

In the article, the new method of modelling of Rod Vortex Generators (RVGs) was proposed. RVGs are inclined rods, mounted in boundary layer used to flow control. RVGs were intensively investigated in Institute of Fluid-Flow Machinery in Gdansk, Poland. The research results indicate high potential of RVGs to flow control in wide range of Mach numbers (Mach 0.3-1.45) in the main flow. Due to the flow structure details generated by RVG, it is required to create fine grids in the vicinity of RVGs, which increase the computational cost. In order to overcome this difficulty and reduce computational cost the new numerical models of RVGs are proposed, which use the modification of BAY model. Using BAY model it is not needed to resolve the shape of RVG in detail and it is possible to use orthogonal meshes. The BAY model was originally proposed to predict flows behind thin-plate vortex generators. This model works by adding momentum source term to Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes equations in ANSYS Fluent. The BAY model spatial vectors orientation was modified and some simplifications were performed. The model was calibrated and simulations were carried out for the single rod. The results and effectiveness of modified BAY model were compared with wind-tunnel experiment results and grid-resolved model.
