Introduction
Give a brief overview of the test case. Describe the main characteristics of the flow. In particular, what are the underlying flow physics which must be captured by the computations ? Give reasons for this choice (e.g. poorly understood flow physics, difficulty to predict the flow with standard turbulence models, ...). Detail any case-specific data that needs to be generated.
Review of previous studies
Provide a brief review of related past studies, either experimental or computational. Identify the configuration chosen for the present study and position it with respect to previous studies. If the test case is geared on a certain experiment, explain what simplifications ( e.g. concern- ing geometry, boundary conditions) have been introduced with respect to the experiment in the computational setup to make the computations feasible and avoid uncertainty or ambiguity.
Description of the test case
The diffuser studied is the UFR_4-16_Test_Case, Diffuser 1 provided in the ERCOFTAC database.
Geometry and flow parameters
The diffuser shape, dimensions and the coordinate system are shown in Fig. 1 (reproduced from UFR 4-16 Test Case).

For the current diffuser, the upper-wall expansion angle is 11.3° and the side-wall expansion angle is 2.56°. The flow in the inlet duct (height h=1 cm, width B=3.33 cm) corresponds to fully-developed turbulent channel flow. The L=15h long diffuser section is followed by a straight outlet part (12.5h long). Downstream of this the flow goes through a 10h long contraction into a 1 inch diameter tube. The curvature radius at the walls transitioning between diffuser and the straight duct parts are 6 cm. The bulk velocity in the inflow duct is in the x-direction resulting in the Reynolds number based on the inlet channel height of 10000. The origin of the coordinates (y=0, z=0) coincides with the intersection of the two non-expanding walls at the beginning of the diffuser's expansion (x=0).
Boundary conditions
Specify the prescribed boundary conditions, as well as the means to verify the initial flow development. In particular describe the procedure for determining the in flow conditions comprising the instantaneous (mean and fluctuating) velocity components and other quantities. Provide reference profiles for the mean flow and fluctuations at in flow - these quantities must be supplied separately as part of the statistical data as they are essential as input for turbulence-model calculations. For checking purposes, these profiles should ideally also be given downstream where transients have disappeared; the location and nature of these cuts should be specified, as well as the reference result.
