Abstract

This report documents the use of the CM3DT inviscid blunt body flow field code. Details are provided on the organization of the code and the inputs required for its operation. Code inputs and outputs are explained for several sample cases, and glossaries of input variables, output variables, and subroutines are provided. The coupling of the CM3DT to a steady supersonic afterbody code is described. (Author)
