Turbulence modeling

Theory

• In this tutorial you find the basic theory of turbulence modeling.

• This tutorial gives a compact explanation of a laminar solver as well as a turbulent solver and the difference between them.

• Here you will find a basic 2D hands-on tutorial to understand the theory of steady-state turbulence modeling.

• Here you will find a basic 2D hands-on tutorial to understand the theory of transient turbulence modeling.

Application cases

• This tutorial describes the flow over a rearward facing step in detail.

• Here you will learn about the flow around a car.

• This tutorial describes the flow around a circular cylinder - 2D case.

• This tutorial describes the Flow around a square cylinder - 3D case.

• This tutorial gives you an extensive introduction to the flow around a hemisphere, which can be seen as one of the simplest case of an external flow.
