Abstract
The first two parts of this article [1, 2] describe the components of an automatic resolution control (ARC) algorithm for the finite-volume method. While the performance of similar algorithms is well established for inviscid supersonic flows and partly for laminar flows, the number of studies dealing with incompressible turbulent flows is very limited. In this article we shall apply the ARC to two turbulent flow test cases using the k-e turbulence model in 2- and 3-D to examine the performance of the method. For completeness, both the high-Re model with wall functions and the low-Re variant will be included.
