    Description: Preliminary investigations have led to the consideration of two classes of energy efficient aeroassisted orbital transfer vehicle (AOTV) concepts, with high and low L/D. The AOTV represent reentry space vehicles which are to fly hypersonically in the continuum upper reaches of the atmosphere. Problems arise in connection with convective and nonequilibrium radiative heating. As the possibilities for obtaining needed information by experimentation are limited, reliance must be placed on computational techniques to simulate testing of design concepts. A new relaxation algorithm for the compressible Navier-Stokes equations has been developed in the context of recent work with a conservative flux difference eigenvector split implicit upwind scheme CSCM (conservative supracharacteristics method). Attention is given to the CSCM implicit method, and early results for axisymmetric bluff body flow including complete forebody and base flow for a free flight range model drag brake AOTV.

    Description: Preparatory to a continuing study of efficient, high resolution flow structure capture on patched mesh systems, turbulent flowfield solutions for a tactical missile base flow problem are computed on two first level composite grids of differing topologies. One mesh is of the wraparound character and the other is a step mesh on the Cartesian topology. A simplified Baldwin-Lomax algebraic eddy viscosity model is applied in the wake region. Results for the two meshes are compared with each other and with other computations reported in the literature. The totality of results suggest both mesh topology and resolution are important factors in the accuracy of predictive results as well as turbulence modeling. Related to interests in high altitude laminar flows bluff bodies such as the AOTV, the paper also presents results from a solution from laminar flow over a backward facing step and makes comparison with the available classical experiment of Chapman, et al.

    Description: The patched mesh CSCM flow solver is used with a fast adaptive grid technique to compute complex two dimensional and axisymmetric, inviscid and viscous flows accurately and efficiently. The patched grid technique allows the user to generate the initial grid around complex regions with minimal effort. The adaptive grid strategy permits the grid points to adjust to the solution in accordance with the flow structure and user specified grid constraints and thus improve the accuracy of the solution. Solutions to challenging flow problems are obtained with adapted grids and the numerical examples and the results presented here show clearly the effectiveness of the adaptive grid solution strategy to obtain highly accurate numerical solutions with minimal human effort and computational resources.

    Description: The present paper describes the application of a simple, robust stable implicit approach to solutions of the conservative equations of gasdynamics on either composite or overset meshes to capture flow structures such as shocks with high resolution in complex geometric domains. Without requiring special flux conservative operators, but rather, interpolating conservative variable data at mesh boundaries, the well posed upwind method provides accurate and oscillation free solutions, even when shocks cross the interior patch boundaries. In three problems with flow complexities that require grid refinement, the paper demonstrates the capability to conveniently carry out for gasdynamics the adaptive refined meshing strategy in overset patches proposed by Berger and Oliger (1984), and it extends this technique to rapidly convergent implicit methods for the Euler and Navier-Stokes equations. The numerical experiments show concretely, in a realistic aerodynamic problem, the savings in mesh points (about an order of magnitude here in two dimensions) for similar accuracy that flow structure aligned adaptive patched meshing affords compared to uniform grid refinement.

    Description: The single level conservative supra characteristic method (CSCM-S) is an upwind implicit method that is very robust and in a single level relaxation format makes efficient use of computer resources, and is very rapidly convergent. These factors render the unconditionally stable algorithm a useful compromise between Parabolized Navier-Stokes methods and two level linearized implicit time dependent methods and, thus, the method is very attractive for multidimensional Navier-Stokes problems. In this paper the heat transfer prediction capabilities of the CSCM schemes for flat plate, nozzle, blunt cone and bluff body flows are reported for the first time. Results are compared with available experimental heat transfer measurements.

    Description: The supersonic, viscous laminar flow around the Space Shuttle Orbiter forebody has been computed with a parabolized Navier-Stokes code using a generalized coordinate transformation. The initial solution for the nose part of the Orbiter geometry was obtained with a three-dimensional time-dependent Navier-Stokes solver. It was necessary to employ a wind axis oriented coordinate system to obtain the initial solution with the time-dependent code. The generalized PNS technique used in this study allows the solution to be marched from the given initial data surface to any desired surface downstream. A grid point clustering scheme was employed to accurately describe the body shape by clustering points at the wing tip and at the wing body juncture. The computed heat transfer coefficients, pressure coefficients, and shock shapes are compared with the available experimental data for 0 degrees and 30 degrees angle of attack.

    Description: A general parabolized Navier-Stokes code has been developed to compute the steady supersonic viscous flow around arbitrary body shapes at high angles of attack. A nonorthogonal three-dimensional coordinate frame permits the code to march with solution surfaces which are the most appropriate. The code has been used to calculate the laminar flow over a slab delta wing with 70 deg sweep at angles of attack up to 41.5 deg and Mach numbers of 6.8 and 9.6. The computed shock shapes, surface pressures and heat transfer coefficients are compared with experiment and show agreement.
