Notes:
This paper describes a novel approach in simulating laminar to turbulent transition by using two-equation models. The Total Stresses Limitation (TSL) concept is used to make the two-equation model capable of predicting high-Reynolds-number transitional flow. In order to handle the transition triggered by laminar separation at a low Reynolds number location, which commonly occurs in high speed flow, a sensor is introduced to detect separation and trigger transition in the separated zone. Test cases include the classical flat-plate turbulent boundary flow, and low-pressure turbine cascade flows at design and off-design conditions. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
