I The DESider Project

The DESider project was motivated by the increasing demand of the European aerospace industries to improve their CFD-aided design procedures and analyses on turbulent unsteady aerodynamic flows. Recent modelling approaches such as DES, hybrid RANS-LES, embedded LES (summarised as “RANS-LES Methods”) but also URANS had not yet – at the beginning of the project - reached the same or a comparable maturity for becoming general predictive tools for industrial CFD with a “sensible” reliability.
