Abstract (EN): Large-eddy simulations (LES) of the flow over a smooth, contoured ramp at high Reynolds number have been performed. The calculations use a wall model based on the Detached Eddy Simulation technique, in which the near-wall region is modeled by solving the unsteady Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) equations, while the outer flow is computed using LES. Experimental results are used to evaluate the models. The error in the mean velocity field predicted by the LES is always less than 10%; an overestimation of the turbulent kinetic energy in the separated shear layer is also observed. The inclusion of a stochastic forcing term, which enhances the generation of resolved eddies near the RANS/LES interface, results in more accurate prediction of the Reynolds stresses in the separation and recovery regions. The turbulent eddies generated are also more realistic. Copyright
