Dr. Menter is a world-recognised expert in turbulence modelling.
He developed the widely used Shear-Stress Transport (SST) turbulence model, which has set a milestone in the accurate prediction of aerodynamic flows. He has also contributed to the formulation of one-equation turbulence models, advanced near wall treatment of turbulence equations, transition modelling and unsteady flow models. He has been in charge of the turbulence modelling program at ANSYS for more than 15 years and has been involved in a wide range of industrial modelling challenges.
We will now focus on Turbulence Modelling, which is a critical area for any engineer involved with industrial CFD. There are a number of different approaches so it is important that you have solid grounding in this area to enable you to choose the appropriate model for your simulation requirements. It is worth noting that in August...
The previous posts have discussed the meshing requirements that we need to pay attention to for a valid result. It is important to remember that your solution is the numerical solution to the problem that you posed by defining your mesh and boundary conditions. The more accurate your mesh and boundary conditions, the more accurate...
Throughout our first set of Tips & Tricks posts relating to meshing controls and meshing methods, we have made mention of Inflation Layers a number of times. Let's take this opportunity to explain exactly why inflation layers are a critical component of a good CFD mesh and how we can create them easily within ANSYS Meshing. In...
