Intermittency of a transitional airfoil flow with laminar separation bubble solved by the lattice-Boltzmann method

Bernardo Luiz Ribeiro, Cayan Dantas, William Wolf

The flow over a NACA0012 airfoil at a moderate Reynolds number Re = 50,000 and angle of attack of alpha = 3 degrees is investigated using the lattice-Boltzmann method (LBM). The LB…
