Numerical Study of Unsteady Supersonic Flow Behind a Rearward-Facing Step with Slot Injection

Prediction of the incompressible flow over a rearward-facing step

Prediction of Fluid Flow and Heat Transfer Characteristics Behind a Single Backward-Facing Step

Numerical solutions based on standard finite volume method are presented for the study of heat transfer and fluid dynamic characteristics in turbulent flows behind a single sided backward-facing step. The calculation of the differential equations is performed using SIMPLE algorithm. For the turbulent quantities standard K-model is used. Predicted mean velocity profiles and reattachment lengths ...

A Numerical Study on Mixing of Transverse Injection in Supersonic Combustor

A numerical study on mixing of hydrogen injected transversely into a supersonic air stream has been performed by solving Two-Dimensional full Navier-Stokes equations. An explicit Harten-Yee Non-MUSCL Modified-flux-type TVD scheme has been used to solve the system of equations, and a zero-equation algebraic turbulence model to calculate the eddy viscosity coefficient. The main objectives of this...

Unsteady Phenomena in Supersonic Nozzle Flow Separation

This work considers the instability of the jet plume from an overexpanded, shockcontaining convergent-divergent nozzle and attempts to correlate this instability to internal shock-induced separation phenomena. Time resolved wall pressure measurements and Pitot measurements are used as primary diagnostics. For the conditions of this study flow separation is asymmetric resulting in a large separa...
