Numerical Computations of Turbine Blade Aerodynamics: Comparison of SAS and LES
Proceedings of the Fluid Dynamics Conference and Exhibit

Abstract
Numerical investigations of turbine blade are carried out using Scale Adaptive Simulation (SAS), large eddy simulation (LES) and Detached-eddy Simulation (DES), techniques. The goal of the present studies is to investigate the turbine blade aerodynamics and blade cooling rechniques. The simulations are performed for a Reynolds number, Re=1.3x10^6, based on the chord, c, of the airfoil and free-stream velocity. The computational results reveal the dissipative nature, of SAS, associated with the turbulence modeling.
