Three-dimensional separated flows past ground vehicles
The separated flow past a thick body is calculated using a theoretical model based on a discrete wake-vortex representation. Rehbach's unsteady inviscid scheme (1977) was used in the three-dimensional analysis. The obstacle is represented by singularities, and the wake is modeled by vortex particles emitted at the separation line. Calculated results for an axisymmetric body are compared with flow visualization results.
