Modifications to the k-kL-ω transition model based on Pohlhausen and Falkner-Skan profiles

We will present novel modifications of the three-equation k-kL-u: eddy viscosity model proposed by Walters and Cokljat [1] for the adverse pressure gradient flows that occur on wind turbine blades and airfoils. The original model was based on the k-u: framework with an additional transport equatio...
