Computation of Hypersonic Laminar Viscous Flow over a Body with Mass Transfer and/or Spin at Angle of Attack,

Abstract

Computational results of hypersonic laminar viscous flow over blunt-nosed bodies with mass transfer and/or spin are presented. An implicit-iterative numerical scheme at each marching step is used to solve the parabolized Navier-Stokes equations. The code takes into account the mass-transfer and spin effects in the boundary condition at the body surface and the periodic effect in the boundary condition around the body. To facilitate convergence, the v-momentum equation has been used rather than the continuity equation to provide the pressure at the body boundary. The coupling effects of mass transfer and spin on the integrated forces and moments as well as the surface properties are presented and discussed. (Author)
