Abstract

A three-dimensional unstructured finite-volume code developed for RANS computations with the artificial compressibility approach is described. The code is applied to prediction of adiabatic effectiveness of endwall flush-slot-cooling for a stator vane passage. Results obtained with the Spalart-Allmaras and the Menter SST turbulence models are presented and discussed in comparison with measurements and with the data computed using the FLUENT commercial software package.
