Laminar and Turbulent Aeroheating Predictions around Multi -Cone Configurations in Hypersonic Equilibrium - Air Flow

Analytic Solution for Hypersonic Flow Past a Slender Elliptic Cone Using Second-Order Perturbation Approximations

An approximate analytical solution is obtained for hypersonic flow past a slender elliptic cone using second-order perturbation techniques in spherical coordinate systems. The analysis is based on perturbations of hypersonic flow past a circular cone aligned with the free stream, the perturbations stemming from the small cross-section eccentricity. By means of hypersonic approximations for the ...

Particle and Continuum Computations of Hypersonic Flow Over Sharp and Blunted Cones

Hybrid DSMC-CFD Simulations of Hypersonic Flow over Sharp and Blunted Bodies

A hybrid particle-continuum computational framework is developed and presented for simulating hypersonic interacting flows, aimed to be faster and more accurate than conventional numerical methods. The framework consists of the direct simulation Monte Carlo-Information Preservation (DSMC-IP) method coupled with a Navier-Stokes solver. Since the DSMCIP method provides the macroscopic information...

Hypersonic Flows About a 25° Sharp Cone

This paper presents the results of a numerical study that examines the surface heating discrepancies observed between computed and measured values along a sharp cone. With Mach numbers of an order of 10 and the free-stream length Reynolds number of an order of 10 000, the present computations have been made with the direct simulation Monte Carlo (DSMC) method by using the G2 code of Bird. The o...
