Abstract

An informal Working Party was set up in October 1980 to review the present state-of-the-art in turbulence modelling for aeronautical applications and to make recommendations for future progress in this field. The report assesses the extent to which further developments in design and prediction methods for both external and internal flow are dependent on achieving advances in turbulence modelling and considers how these improvements realistically could be obtained. Reference is made to the conclusions from an international symposium on the same topic held at Stanford University, California in 1980-81.
