Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) can be applied to the
complicated flow fields.
9
However, analysis of complicated flow fields with massive
separation such as blunt body problems at high Reynolds number
is still challenging.
9
One of the reasons is difficulty in adequate consideration of
turbulence effects.
9
To deal with these problems, recently, Detached-Eddy Simulation
(DES) based on Spalart-Allmaras one equation turbulence model
is proposed by Spalart et al.

Flow around a sphere has a
very complicated and
interesting physics.

A golf ball flies at about
M=0.2 and the Reynolds
Number of 105, but the drag
coefficient is about half of
the smooth sphere.

Background : Gold ball
9
Dimples on the golf ball surface play an important role to trigger the
boundary layer transition and reduce the drag.
9
However, the mechanism of the boundary layer transition by
dimples has not been fully understood and the design of the dimples
around a golf ball still highly depends on the experiences and
experiments.
9
The CFD application to the golf ball is still challenging, but is
becoming a powerful tool to investigate the effect of the geometry
of dimples to the flows and the drag reduction.

Objectives
9
Main objective is to understand the effectiveness of the dimple shape on
the turbulent flow around a dimpled sphere.
9
As a first step, flows around dimpled cylinders rather than dimpled
spheres are simulated for simplicity and reduced computational cost.
9
This talk mainly focuses on the effectiveness of the DES for simulations
of dimpled cylinders.

On the cylinder surface, there are three lines of dimples, each line having
thirty dimples in the circumferential direction.

At between dimples, the velocity gradients have a sudden peak, due to the
dimpled surface geometry. This corresponds to the lower peak of CP.

Conclusions
i.
Turbulence effects around a dimpled cylinder using DES were numerically
simulated.
ii.
For the comparison with DES, G-R and S-A one equation turbulence models
and without turbulence model were applied.
iii. The results plotted with the time averaged vorticity magnitude and velocity
vectors showed the difference in the high vorticity regions in the wake of
cylinder.
iv. The time averaged section CP and velocity gradients distributions show the
sudden peaks, due to the dimpled surface geometry.
v.
For drag comparisons, S-A model predicted the most accurate results with
experimental data.
