Numerical Calculations of Turbulent Recirculating Beyond Two-Dimensional Back-Steps and Sudden Pipe Expansions

Abstract

Results of an investigation of numerical modeling techniques for turbulent heat transfer in the recirculating and reattached flow downstream of two-dimensional regard-facing steps and sudden pipe expansions are presented. The computations were performed using an improved k-epsilon two-equation model of turbulence in a modified version of the Teach-T code.
