Abstract:
This project will develop a state-of-the-art, second-order
accurate (hybrid, implicit-explicit, directionally unsplit,
Godunov-type), time-dependent scheme capable of solving high-
temperature, viscous, nonequilibrium, chemically reacting, and,
possibly, two-phase flow fields. The new scheme will be developed
to the point that realistic aerodynamic design and analysis
simulations, including the relevant aerothermodynamic flow fields,
can be calculated. Phase I will use a two-dimensional,
directionally unsplit, inviscid version of the scheme to solve for
stiff, chemically reacting model problems, implementing and
testing ideas recently published about high-order Godunov Schemes.
Potential Commercial Application:
Potential Commercial Applications: The code will provide an
optimal tool for the analysis of material structures, aerodynamic
designs, propulsion and performance analysis of hypersonic
vehicles.
