Wind tunnel interference effects on delta wing aerodynamics are the subject of this thesis. To assess tunnel effects a three-dimensional RANS flow solver developed at the University of Glasgow has been used. Delta wings have been the subject of much research in the last four decades due to their advantageous characteristics in both low and high speed flight. The aerodynamics at low speed are primarily determined by the presence of leading edge vortices and the phenomenon of vortex breakdown. Due to the sensitivity of leading edge vortices to external influences, the effect of wind tunnel constraints on the flowfield has been the subject of (limited) research. Wind tunnel interference effects have been explored experimentally by various researchers, and according to the literature, wind tunnels have been observed to both promote and delay vortex breakdown, thus highlighting the complexity of the problem. To explore the influence of wind tunnel test facilities on delta wing aerodynamics, the interference has been separated into two distinct types, wall interference and support structure interference. The wall interference effects have been split into three further components, tunnel blockage, side wall interference, and roof and floor interference. Splitting the tunnel influence in this way allows us to determine the most detrimental interference effects, thus allowing the wind tunnel engineer to design experiments accordingly. Euler and more realistic RANS simulations of tunnel interference have been conducted. To reduce the question of grid dependence when comparing solutions, a common "farfield grid" was created and tunnel grids were extracted. Before doing RANS simulations an analysis of various turbulence models was conducted. It was found that turbulence models have difficulty in predicting turbulence levels in leading edge vortices. As such modifications have been applied to the models which improve predictions. Despite vortex breakdown being widely regarded as an invis-III I would like to express my sincere thanks to my supervisor Dr. Ken Badcock. His continual assistance, encouragement and relentless enthusiasm over the past three years has been greatly appreciated. I would also like to thank the other members of the CFD group, in particular Dr. George Barakos, Prof. Bryan Richards, and Mr. Ryan Menzies for all their help. I would like to thank all the members of the WEAG THALES JP12.15 and AVT-080 Task Groups, for many enlightening and fruitful discussions, and in particular Major A. Mitchell, of the United States Airforce Academy, for kindly providing the experimental data for the ONERA 70° delta wing. Finally I would like to thank my family, in particular my parents Bruce and Jane, for their endless support and encouragement.
