UNSTEADY TURBULENT FLOW SIMULATION OF ROTOR BLADES ON MOVING CARTESIAN GRIDS USING RECURSIVE FITTING APPROACH

K. Sugaya¹, T. Imamura¹; ¹The University of Tokyo, Japan

To simulate turbulent flow around moving bodies, we propose a new method capable of automatic grid generation and accurate turbulent flow simulation. The automatically generated body-fitted Cartesian grid moves with the bodies. To examine the capability of the proposed method, two- and three-dimensional unsteady flow are simulated.
