Abstract

Recent updates to the amplification factor transport transition modeling framework are presented. These updates include new model correlations, as well as a coupling for the two-equation model that is compatible with the negative continuation of the Spalart-Allmaras turbulence model typically used in finite-element CFD. The updated model is exercised on several benchmark cases. Additionally, a preliminary study on the potential benefits of higher-order methods with curved meshes are explored.
