A hybrid RANS model of wing-body junction flow

The study highlights the importance of the spatial resolution near the wing leading edge, where this localized secondary recirculation was observed by the hybrid RANS model. It also provides evidence on the applicability of the hybrid Menter and Yoshizawa turbulence closure to the wing-body junction flows in aircraft and turbomachines, where these flows are characterized by a substantially time-invariant three-dimensional separation.
