Solver and Turbulence Model Upgrades to OVERFLOW 2 for Unsteady and High-Speed Applications

Abstract

An implicit unfactored SSOR algorithm has been added to the overset Navier-Stokes CFD code OVERFLOW 2 for unsteady and moving body applications. The HLLEM and HLLC third-order spatial upwind convective flux models have been added for high-speed flow applications. A generalized upwind transport equation has been added for solution of the two-equation turbulence models and the species equations. The generalized transport equation is solved using an unfactored SSOR implicit algorithm. Three hybrid RANS/DES turbulence models have been added for unsteady flow applications. Wall function boundary conditions that include compressibility and heat transfer effects have been also been added to OVERFLOW 2.
