A numerical study of the hot gas environment around a STOVL aircraft in ground proximityThe development of Short Takeoff Vertical Landing (STOVL) aircraft has historically been an empirical- and experienced-based technology. A 3-D turbulent flow CFD code was used to calculate the hot gas environment around an STOVL aircraft operating in ground proximity. Preliminary calculations are reported for a typical STOVL aircraft configuration to identify key features of the flow field, and to demonstrate and assess the capability of current 3-D CFD codes to calculate the temperature of the gases ingested at the engine inlet as a function of flow and geometric conditions.
