Abstract
The preferred models of the consortium (SSG, k-w, STT, SCW) have been implemented in a recent open source FV software and tested. Numerical behaviour of two popular versions of the V2F model have been compared and a new formulation proposed, that combines the accuracy of the original version and stability of the degraded “code friendly version”. In the DES framework, the need for reduction of the EVM coefficient has been related to the stress-strain missalignment in rapidly changing time dependent mode and a single transport equation for this coefficient proposed. On the wall function front, the AWF of Craft and Gerasimov entailing an analytical integration of terms over the first cell (body force in particular) proved challenging to implement on unstructured grids, but was achieved. Towards the end of the project, a promising mathematical framework (Robin type conditions) was proposed, based on domain decomposition and mixed Dirichlet and Neumann conditions.
