Flow analysis through numerical techniques
Abstract
Flow analysis by using numerical techniques is demonstrated. Results obtained from integrations of the governing equations are compared with experimental data. The following problems are discussed: the inviscid flow about a sphere at supersonic Mach-numbers, calculated with Rusanov's algorithm; incompressible and compressible laminar turbulent boundary layers on infinite swept wings, calculated with second- and fourth-order accuracy for three different scalar closure assumptions; and hypersonic laminar and turbulent slot injection of frozen flow (He and H2) and flow in approximated chemical equilibrium (H2). Finally applications of finite-difference solutions are to be discussed for fully viscous flows in biofluidmechanical problems.
