• Realistic aircraft
• Massively separation
• Delayed detached eddy simulation

The massively separated flows over a realistic aircraft configuration at 40, 50, and 60 angles of attack are studied using the delayed detached eddy simulation (DDES). The calculations are carried out at experimental conditions corresponding to a mean aerodynamic chord-based Reynolds number of and Mach number of 0.088. The influence of the grid size is investigated using two grids, cells and cells. At the selected conditions, the lift, drag, and pitching moment from DDES predictions agree with the experimental data better than that from the Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes. The effect of angle of attack on the flow structure over the general aircraft is also studied, and it is found that the dominated frequency associated with the vortex shedding process decreases with increasing angle of attack.
