1st AIAA CFD Transition Modeling Prediction Workshop

This workshop will assess and promote improvement to the current state-of-the-art in CFD-based transition modeling.

Objectives

• Assess the current state of the art in laminar-turbulent transition prediction in an industrial CFD environment
• Determine and document best practices for transitional flow simulations
• Verify transition/turbulence model implementations
• Encourage risk taking by participants and promote improvements to CFD prediction capabilities

General Information

• The Transition Modeling and Prediction Workshop is modeled after the AIAA Drag Prediction and High-Lift Prediction Workshop series.
• The primary test case will be the natural-laminar-flow variant of the Common Research Model (CRM-NLF) developed by NASA.
• Participation in the transition modeling studies is not required to attend the workshop. Everyone is welcome!
• Open forums and discussions will be included to encourage cross-pollination of ideas and practices.
• Results will be made available after the workshop in a report and on the workshop website.
• AIAA membership is not required.
