« Final » stall occurs at wing root Need to prevent flow separation on OB wing Early flow separation linked to excessive turbulence dissipation, w, which can be reduced by introducing curvature correction

Impact of laminar-turbulent transition

SciTech 2018 - Orlando, January 2018 Bombardier Contribution to HiLiftPW-3 15

WT Reynolds number is low Significant extents of laminar flow are expected Transition imposed in Dragon (not predicted) Based on WT transition detection No transition on slats Inboard WUSS fully-turbulent even w/o nacelle Laminar flow on fixed IB leading edge Transition location on LS same as on US a = 4.4° Used for 0° £ a £ 8° a = 10.5° Used for 10.5° £ a £ 16° a = 18.6° Used for a ³ 17.5°

Transition influence: forces & moments

SciTech 2018 - Orlando, January 2018 Bombardier Contribution to HiLiftPW-3 16

Imposing regions of laminar flow results in slightly higher CL and much improved prediction of αstall and CLmax Fully-turbulent flow slightly underpredicts CL and

  • verpredicts αstall and Clmax

Predicts pitch-up at stall Properly predicts pitch- down at stall No real drag improvement Shift in drag and pitching moment is most likely related to half-model effect

Transition influence: surface flow pattern at a = 10.5°

Flow pattern well predicted overall:

  • Flow separation behind FTFs
  • Flow separation behind most-OB

slat track

  • Wingtip separation

Dragon vs. other codes: forces & moment

SciTech 2018 - Orlando, January 2018 Bombardier Contribution to HiLiftPW-3 23

Large scatter in lift and pitching moment Solution w/o curvature correction is still within the range of results presented Solutions with curvature correction are among those providing the best agreement with the WT data All solutions overpredict drag

Dragon vs. other codes: lift and drag at a = 18.6°

SciTech 2018 - Orlando, January 2018 Bombardier Contribution to HiLiftPW-3 24

Lift predicted by Dragon is very close to average of all CFD data and to WT data Drag is also close to the CFD average and closer to the WT data than most WT data WT data

Conclusions

  • Fully-turbulent flow assumption not valid at low WT

Reynolds number

  • Improvements to initial results come from two factors:
  • Curvature correction in k-w model
  • Imposed laminar-turbulent transition
  • Transition should be predicted rather than imposed
  • Nacelle installation effects properly predicted
  • Main flow features can be captured with a medium grid

but volumic refinement/adaptation could help

  • Free-stream CFD can predict half-model WT data, but

discrepencies in absolute levels of drag and pitching moment remain that can be related to half-model effect
