The model installation effects in the semi-span wind tunnel experiment stall characteristic of the CRM-HL configuration are investigated based on RANS-based CFD analyses using the Cartesian-grid-based flow solver UTCart. The results show that both the floor boundary layer and peniche (standoff) affect the flow separation at the inboard sections.
