Description:
Perfect gas computational results from a newly-developed upwind, parabolized Navier-Stokes (PNS) solver are compared with an existing set of experimental laminar results for a 10-deg half-angle circular cone at freestream Mach number of 7.95. Comparisons were performed with surface pressure and heat transfer data, as well as with flowfield pitot measurements. The PNS code predicted the surface quantities accurately up through 20-deg angle-of-attack, including crossflow separation, and correctly defined the location of the bow shock and the edge of the boundary layer. The importance of cell Reynolds number, grid density, and thermal boundary conditions to the accurate prediction of the flowfield are examined through numerical emamples.
