A local correlation-based algebraic transition model in k-ω SST formulation
Okumu, Bilal; Baran, Özgür Uğraş; Baş, Onur (2026-01-01)
A new correlation-based algebraic transition model using local variables is proposed. Instead of solving an additional transport equation for intermittency, the model employs an intermittency function that controls the sou...
Optimized FDA Blood Pump: A Case Study in System-Level Customized Ventricular Assist Device Designs
Yıldırım, Canberk; Uçak, Kağan; Madayen, Ali; Gölcez, Tansu; Ertürk, Hakan; Baran, Özgür Uğraş; Pekkan, Kerem (2025-01-01)
Purpose: The design and development of ventricular assist devices have heavily relied on computational tools, particularly computational fluid dynamics (CFD), since the early 2000s. However, traditional CFD-based optimizat...
A sensitivity study on the starting simulations of turbojet engines
Gullu, E.; Aran, G.; Erk, M.; Baran, Özgür Uğraş (2024-09-19)
Gas turbine engine starting models require a lot of calibration to represent reality with acceptable accuracy due to the lack of high-quality component rig data in the sub-idle region. A detailed sensitivity study is prese...
Assessment and Extension of the WrayAgarwal Turbulence Model for Shock WaveBoundary Layer Interactions
Akça, Semih Can; Dikbaş, Erdem; Baran, Özgür Uğraş (2024-01-01)
In this study, the performance of the Wray-Agarwal one-equation turbulence model is evaluated using Shock Wave-Boundary Layer Interaction (SWBLI) test cases. Also, a recently tested formulation by Raje and Sinha aiming for...
EXTENSION OF THE MULTALL OPEN SOURCE THROUGHFLOW CODE FOR THE IMPROVED OFF – DESIGN CALCULATIONS
Bilgiç, Mustafa; Baran, Özgür Uğraş; Aksel, Mehmet Halûk (2024-01-01)
Throughflow calculations play an important role in the design stages of a turbomachinery. After the one-dimensional mean line calculations have been completed, the throughflow solver used in the design mode to perform the ...
Assessment of Effect of Flux Scheme and Turbulence Model on Blade-to-blade Calculations
Bilgiç, M.; Baran, Özgür Uğraş; Aksel, M.H. (2024-01-01)
Today, due to advances in computing power, Reynolds Averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) solvers are widely preferred for quasi-three-dimensional (Q3D) blade-to-blade analysis. This study investigates the performance of different...
Towards Accurate Vortex Separation Simulations with RANS Using Improved k-kL Turbulence Model
Dikbaş, Erdem; Baran, Özgür Uğraş (2023-04-01)
In this study, we present our improved RANS results of the missile aerodynamic flow computation involving leading edge vortex separation. We have used our in-house tailored version of the open source finite volume solver F...
