Hi Foamers,

I simulated a NACA0012 airfoil, AOA=0, and U=56 m/s using simpleFoam as my solver. The turbulence model I used is KomegaSST. I assume in this way, the boundary layer is fully turbulent. However, as shown in the screenshot below, I still observe a "jump" indicating transition in the Cf (the skin friction coefficient). If the BL is fully turbulent, there should not be a "jump" here, Cf should be decreasing all the way to the trailing edge.

My question is: is KomegaSST in OpenFOAM (I use OpenFOAM 5.0) a fully turbulent model? If not, how can I make fully turbulent simulations?

Thanks in advance.

Best regards,
Peter
