Occurrence of global instability in hypersonic compression corner flow

Numerical Simulation of Shock-Wave/Boundary/Layer Interactions in a Hypersonic Compression Corner Flow

Numerical results are presented for the shock-boundary layer interactions in a hypersonic flow over a sharp leading edge compression corner. In this study, a second- order Godunov type scheme based on solving a Generalized Riemann Problem (GRP) at each cell interface is used to solve thin shear layer approximation of laminar Navier-Stokes (N-S) equations. The calculated flow-field shows general...

Hypersonic Turbulent Expansion-Corner Flow with Impingement

Instability of supersonic compression ramp flow.

The instability of supersonic compression ramp flow is investigated. It is assumed that the Reynolds number is large and that the governing equations are the unsteady triple-deck equations. The mean flow is first calculated by solving the steady equations for various scaled ramp angles α, and the numerical results suggest that there is no singularity for increasing ramp angles. The stability of...

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,...

Modelling of Hypersonic Flow Phenomena

Forewords Computational Fluid Dynamic is becoming a mature discipline in aerospace sciences. It is no longer only an analysis tool but ready to be used in all stages of design as well. The materials here presented review the growth and advances done in the last 10 years for hypersonic flow phenomena in continuum regime. The status of the physical modelling, code development issues such as algor...
