4.9.6. Coefficients for the Algebraic Transition Model

The coefficients are (defaults in parenthesis):

  • (-0.5) - Parameter () to calibrate impact of adverse pressure gradients for high regimes.

  • (-0.5) - Parameter () to calibrate impact of adverse pressure gradients for low regimes.

  • (0.6) - Parameter () to calibrate impact of favorable pressure gradients for high regimes.

  • (1.0) - Parameter () to calibrate impact of favorable pressure gradients for low regimes.

  • (1.0) -Parameter to scale the non-dimensional pressure gradient parameter .

  • (1.06) - Parameter () to calibrate impact of for high regimes.

  • (2.25) - Parameter () to calibrate impact of for low regimes.

  • (1.0) - Critical Reynolds number correlation; built-in version or user-defined via UDF.

  • (210) - Parameter () in correlation.

  • (1.0) - Parameter () in correlation.

  • (1000.0) - Parameter () in correlation - specifies upper limit on transition location as goes to zero.

  • (1000.0) - Parameter () - steers the switching function between high and low levels.

  • (0.5) - Parameter () - to steer bubble modification.

  • (2.5) - Parameter () - to steer bubble modification.
