The main focus is on the feasibility of various Richardson extrapolation-based uncertainty estimators in the cavitating flow simulation. The unsteady cavitating flow is simulated by a density corrected model(DCM) coupled with the Zwart cavitation model. The estimated uncertainty is used to evaluate the applicability of various uncertainty estimation methods for the cavitating flow simulation. It is shown that the preferred uncertainty estimators include the modified Factor of Safety(FS1), the Factor of Safety(FS) and the Grid Convergence Index(GCI). The distribution of the area without achieving the validation at the U v level shows a strong relationship with the cavitation. Further analysis indicates that the predicted velocity distributions, the transient cavitation patterns and the effects of the vortex stretching are highly influenced by the mesh resolution.展开更多
文摘构建计算机生成兵力(Computer Generated Force,CGF)模型是作战仿真的一项十分重要的工作,其核心内容在于对战场中的各种人类复杂行为进行建模,包括认知行为建模和物理行为建模。可信性是行为模型的至关重要的品质。在行为建模的全生命周期中进行校核与验证(Verification and Validation,V&V)能够确保行为模型的有效性和可信性。在阐释行为建模V&V及其相关概念的基础上,建立CGF行为建模的过程模型;伴随行为建模的过程,重点研究相应的CGF行为建模V&V过程;根据现有的仿真V&V方法,探索CGF行为建模有效的V&V方法。
