    Description: An efficient method for calculating unsteady flows is presented, with emphasis on a modified version of the thin-layer Navier-Stokes equations. Fourier stability analysis is used to illustrate the effect of treating the source term implicitly instead of explicity, as well as to illustrate other algorithmic choices. A 2D circular cylinder (with a Reynolds number of 1200 and a Mach number of 0.3) is calculated. The present scheme requires only about 10 percent of the computer time required by global minimum time stepping.

    Description: The goal of this research is to experimentally characterize the behavior of droplets in vaporizing liquid sprays under conditions typical of those encountered in high pressure combustion systems such as liquid fueled rocket engines. Of particular interest are measurements of droplet drag, droplet heating, droplet vaporization, droplet distortion, and secondary droplet breakup, under both subcritical and supercritical conditions. The paper presents a brief description of the specific accomplishments which have been made over the past year.

    Description: The pressure-driven flow of a rarefied monatomic gas through a two-dimensional slit is simulated using the direct simulation Monte Carlo technique. Of particular interest is the change in flow field structure as pressure ratio and Knudsen number are varied. Comparisons are made to quantify the limits of validity of free-molecular theory and approximate, nearly free-molecular iterative methods. Also addressed is the sensitivity of the numerical solutions to grid structure and boundary conditions. The free-molecular theory is found to predict quantitative flow field properties (e.g., centerline velocities or downstream flux profiles) reasonably well for large finite Knudsen number with the error dependent on the pressure ratio. The nearly free-molecular corrections are shown to have limited range of applicability. A previously derived parameter is found to correlate total mass flux well as a function of pressure ratio and Knudsen number over a large portion of the transitional regime.

    Description: Three dimensional (3-D) surface heating and ablation rate distributions have been obtained based on the geometry of the project Apollo Lunar/Earth return capsule and high Reynolds number inviscid/boundary layer methods. This application is based on the principles of the pseudo-three dimensional axisymmetric streamline analogy. Inviscid surface streamlines are determined for the forebody portion of the Apollo capsule using a CFD solver. Streamlines are obtained for the 20 deg angle-of-attack flight case, and the associated streamline metrics are determined. Boundary layer heating and ablation calculations are performed along selected Apollo forebody streamlines using the non-similar boundary layer code. Surface radiative heating estimates were obtained and the validity of the streamline tracing analogy is examined. These comparisons and the Apollo trajectory heating results are discussed.

    Description: A CFD parametric study was performed to analyze axially opposed rows of jets mixing with crossflow in a rectangular duct. An isothermal analysis was conducted to determine the influence of lateral geometric arrangement on mixing for the cases of: (1) inline (jets' centerlines aligned with each other on top and bottom walls), and (2) staggered (jets' centerlines offset with each other on top and bottom walls) configurations. For a jet-to-mainstream mass flow ratio (MR) of 2.0, design parameters were systematically varied for jet-to-mainstream momentum-flux ratios (J) between 16 and 64 and orifice spacing-to-duct height ratios (S/H) between 0.125 and 1.5. Comparisons were made between geometries optimized for S/H at a specified J. Inline configurations had a unique spacing for best mixing at a specified J. In contrast, staggered configurations had two 'good mixing' spacings for each J, one corresponding to optimum inline spacing and the other corresponding to optimum nonimpinging jet spacing. Increasing J resulted in better mixing characteristics if each configuration was optimized with respect to orifice spacing. Mixing performance was shown to be similar to results from previous dilution jet mixing investigations (MR less than 0.5).

    Description: An experimental investigation of the mixing of nonreacting opposed rows of jets injected normal to a confined rectangular crossflow has been conducted. Planar Mie-scattering was used to measure the time-average concentration distribution of the jet fluid in planes perpendicular to the duct axis. The mixing effectiveness of round orifice injectors was measured as a function of orifice spacing and orifice diameter. Mixing effectiveness was determined using a spatial unmixedness parameter based on the variance of mean jet concentration distributions. Optimum mixing was obtained when the spacing-to-duct height ratio was inversely proportional to the square root of the jet-to-mainstream momentum-flux ratio. For opposed rows of round holes with centerlines inline, mixing was similar for blockages up to 75 percent. Lower levels of unmixedness were obtained as a function of downstream location when axial injection length was minimized. Mixing may be enhanced if orifice centerlines of opposed rows are staggered, but note that blockage must be less than 50 percent for this configuration.

    Description: This paper investigates the linear stability of confined mixing layers with special emphasis on the effects of heat release and compressibility. The results show that reflection of supersonic disturbances by the walls makes the confined supersonic mixing layer more unstable than the unconfined free shear layer. Decreasing the distance between the walls makes the flow more unstable. However, subsonic disturbances are relatively unaffected by the walls. Heat release and Mach number hardly change the growth rates of supersonic disturbances. The most unstable supersonic disturbances are two-dimensional in rectangular channel flows, but three-dimensional in partially confined flows. Finally, the reactants are not strongly mixed by supersonic instabilities, which mainly disturb one side of the layer.

    Description: The evolution of three-dimensional temporally evolving plane mixing layers through as many as three pairings has been simulated numerically. All simulations were begun from a few low-wavenumber disturbances, usually derived from linear stability theory, in addition to the mean velocity. Three-dimensional perturbations were used with amplitudes ranging from infinitesimal to large enough to trigger a rapid transition to turbulence. Pairing is found to inhibit the growth of infinitesimal three-dimensional disturbances, and to trigger the transition to turbulence in highly three-dimensional flows. The mechanisms responsible for the growth of three-dimensionality and onset of transition to turbulence are described. The transition to turbulence is accompanied by the formation of thin sheets of spanwise vorticity, which undergo secondary rollups. The post-transitional simulated flow fields exhibit many properties characteristic of turbulent flows.
