Abstract

A numerical simulation of the boundary layer transition tests T3A and T3B on a plate was performed and the calculated values were in relatively good agreement with the test ones. Through a study of the phenomenon of boundary layer transition on a plate at zero pressure gradient, the authors have concluded that the influence of the complexity of the transition flows on the boundary layer of a flow field should not be neglected. The M-L transition model can somewhat accurately predict the generation and development process of the transition. At a high turbulence, the use of a total turbulence model to simulate a transition flow will result in a relatively small error.
