title = "3D Unsteady numerical investigation of an overexpanded thrust optimized contour nozzle",
abstract = "A numerical study of three-dimensional unsteady separated turbulent flow in an overexpanded Truncated-Optimized Contour nozzle, denoted LEATOC, is undertaken to predictthe accurate separation point location and the downstream mean wall pressure and to better understand the flow phenomenon. Two different turbu-lence modelling methods are assessed; a Wilcox standard k -ωRANS model with realizability correction, and its Detached-Eddy Simulation (DES) extension. With regards to the separation point location and downstream mean wall pressure, the presented unsteady RANS and DES approaches both give results in good agreement with the provided experimental data.",
