On Numerical Calculation of Transonic Flow Patterns

Numerical Simulations of Transonic Flow Acoustic Resonance in Cavity

Direct numerical simulations are used to investigate transonic flow acoustic resonance in an open cavity. The numerical scheme minimizes the errors due to dispersion and dissipation of acoustic waves, and resolves both the unsteady flow and radiated acoustic field. Implicit solution of the compressible Navier-Stokes equations is obtained using a compact high-order spacial differencing scheme, c...

Transonic Flow Calculations

In these lectures I shall attempt to survey some of the principal recent developments in computational aerodynamics. Prior to 1960 computational methods were hardly used in aerodynamic analysis, although they were already widely used for structural analysis. The NACA 6 series of airfoils had been developed during the forties, using hand computation to perform the Theodorsen method for conformal...

A Numerical Study of Transonic Buffet on a Supercritical Airfoil

The steady/unsteady flow of the BGK No. 1 supercritical airfoil is investigated by the solution of the Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes equations with a two-equation k-ω turbulence model. The dual-time stepping method is used to march in time. Two steady cases ( 71 . 0 = Ma , 396 . 1 = α and 71 . 0 = Ma , 0 . 9 = α ) and one unsteady case ( 71 . 0 = Ma , 97 . 6 = α ), both with a far-stream 6 10...
