Aerodynamic simulations were carried out in the study presented in this paper focusing on the stall performance of the High-Lift Common Research Model obtained from the fourth AIAA High-Lift Prediction Workshop. Various turbulence models of Reynolds-averaged Navier–Stokes simulations are analyzed. A modified version of the transitional model was developed to enhance stall prediction accuracy for high-lift configurations with a nacelle chine. The vortex generator, three-element airfoil, and high-lift model are numerically simulated. The results reveal that implementing a model with the separation shear layer fixed notably enhances the stall prediction behavior for both the three-element airfoil and high-lift configuration without affecting the prediction of the vortex strength of a vortex generator. Moreover, incorporating rotation correction into the SPF model improves the prediction of vortex strength and further enhances stall prediction for the high-lift configuration. The relative error in predicting the maximum lift coefficient is less than 5% of the experimental data. The study also investigated the impact of the nacelle chine on the stall behavior of the high-lift configuration. The results demonstrate that the chine vortex can mitigate the adverse effects of the nacelle/pylon vortex system and increase the maximum lift coefficient.
