Resumo

In this work, we perform wall-resolved large eddy simulations to analyze the statistics of airfoil turbulent boundary layers. The impact of different tripping arrangements is assessed for a baseline Reynolds number Re-c = 408,000 based on the airfoil chord. The tripping configurations include two and three-dimensional square profiles and a random tripping composed of several spanwise wavenumbers with phase variations. A study of anisotropy is presented through analysis of the Lumley triangle, Reynolds stress anisotropy tensor, scatter plots of velocity components and probability density functions. The role of different tripping configurations is also discussed for budgets of turbulent kinetic energy. An initial assessment of different Reynolds number flows computed using the random tripping is also presented. (AU)
