Experimental Hypersonic Flow Research in Europe.

Hypersonic Flow

A method for computing inviscid hypersonic ow over complex conngurations using unstructured meshes is presented. The unstructured grid solver uses an edge{based nite{volume formulation. Fluxes are computed using a ux vector splitting scheme that is capable of representing constant enthalpy solutions. Second{order accuracy in smooth ow regions is obtained by linearly reconstructing the solution,...

Heat Flux Reduction Research in Hypersonic Flow with Opposing Jet

A CFD study on heat flux reduction in hypersonic flow with opposing jet has been conducted. Flowfield parameters, reattachment point position, surface pressure distributions and heat flux distributions are obtained and validated with experiments. The physical mechanism of heat reduction has been analyzed. When the opposing jet blows, the freestream is blocked off, flows to the edges and not int...
