Predicting heat transfer using eddy viscosity turbulence models often produces poor results mainly due to the low Reynolds number near-wall treatment and not so much from the underlying turbulence model. Studies by Wolfgang Vieser, Thomas Esch and Florian Menter of CFX have shown that using the CFX-5 SST turbulence model, in combination with an optimal wall treatment, does provide highly accurate results for a wide variety of heat transfer test cases. Dr. Florian Menter will be in Florida on December 11 presenting a seminar on this topic.
