title = "Large Eddy Simulation of the Onera-A airfoil at Reynolds 2.1 million",
abstract = "This paper presents a validation study of the capacity of an in-house Large Eddy Simulation code to predict detailed aerodynamics of the Onera A airfoil section at a moderately high chord-based Reynolds number of 2.1 million. The different components of the method is described, WALE SGS model, boundary conditions, time stepping method, domain selection and grid generation parameters. A comparison with existing measurements and computations is performed, showing overall good agreement of pressure and skin friction distributions, boundary layer thickness, momentum thickness, wall normal velocity and Reynold stress profiles. Finally the laminar to turbulent transition process and computing resources are discussed.",
