Unsteady RANS Simulations of Strong and Weak 3D Stall Cells on a 2D Pitching Aerofoil

A series of three-dimensional unsteady Reynolds-averaged Navier–Stokes (RANS) simulations are conducted to investigate the formation of stall cells over a pitching NACA 0012 aerofoil. Periodic boundary conditions are applied to the spanwise ends of the computational domain. Several differe...
