Calculations of Three-Dimensional Turbulent Boundary Layers Using the Crank-Nicolson Method.

Abstract

This report describes the results of the three-dimensional turbulent boundary-layer calculations performed for the Eurovisc Workshop held in Berlin on 1 April 1982. It is shown that the present method, based on the Crank-Nicolson finite-difference scheme and a simple eddy-viscosity model for turbulence, yields satisfactory results provided regions of viscous-inviscid interaction, which were present in at least three of the four test cases, are avoided.
