Objectives of This Presentation Boundary Layer Transition: An Overview

Objectives Introduction Brain Storming Session Different Stages/Regions Related to BL Transitions Instabilities & BL Transitions Different Modes of Transitions Important Parameters Affecting Transitions Notable Experimental Investigations Selected Models Summary Suggested Readings

To learn about instabilities associated with boundary layer (BL) transition. To acquire knowledge about different modes of BL transition. To be informed about three classes of BL transition models.

Introduction Motivation Boundary Layer Transition: An Overview

Critical for computing the drag & skin friction coefficients reasonably for aerodynamic problems;

Need for a useful model for the open-source/freely available CFD tools like OpenFOAM/foam-extend etc. Still challenging after many decades of research activities and there are scopes for further investigations; Quotes "... most important and probably the most difficult subject in boundary layer work..." (Schetz and Bowersox, 2010) Introduction, Chapter on "Transition To Turbulent Flow" “. . . predicting the onset of either natural or bypass transition is still more of an art than a science (see Savill, 1991 or Seiger et al. For examples).”(Mayle and Schulz, 1997)
