The ratio of the modeled-to-total turbulent kinetic energies f k is dynamically adjusted by the rigid vorticity ratio (the ratio of the rigid vorticity to the total vorticity), the key parameter of the  vortex identification method. Three classical flow cases with rotation and curvature are used to test the model. The results show that the turbulent viscosity is effectively adjusted by the new dynamic f k and the LES-like mode is activated, which can help the revelation of more turbulence information and improve the prediction accuracy. The new PANS model does not contain any explicit dependency on the grid size and enjoys good adaptability to the flow fields, and can be used for efficient engineering computations of the turbulent flows in the hydraulic machinery.

Introduction  The partially-averaged Navier-Stokes (PANS) model was proposed by Girimaji et al.[1] as a second generation URANS approach to resolve the substantial part of the turbulent structures. For high Reynolds number flows, the PANS model can switch from the URANS mode to the LES-like mode where the ratio of the modeled-to-total turbulent kinetic energies f k is reduced yielding a lower turbulent viscosity with high fluctuations[2-3], and it is also easy to be implanted into the existing URANS solver. The original PANS model is developed assuming that f k takes a fixed value, and it is extensively used in many turbulent separation flow cases, such as the flow over a backward facing step[4], the flow past a square or circular cylinder[5-6], the cavitating flow around a hydrofoil[7], and the swirling flows in the * Project supported by the National Natural Science Foundation of China (Grant Nos. 51836010, 51779258 and 51839001), the National Key Research and Development Program of China (Grant No. 2018YFB0606103) and the Nature Science Foundation of Beijing (Grnat No. 3182018).
