Abstract

Structured-grid solutions obtained for the NASA Common Research Model for the 6th AIAA CFD Drag Prediction Workshop are detailed. Three different flow solvers were used amongst the contributors: OVERFLOW, ADflow, and elsA. The numerical methodologies and turbulence modeling strategies employed by each code are described. Key results for all authors include grid convergence studies for the drag increment of a nacelle and pylon added to a wing-body configuration and a buffet study accounting for static aeroelastic deformation. Additional studies performed include feature-based adaptive mesh refinement and higher-order convective flux discretization, among others.
