Review, Implementation and Test of the QAZ1D Computational Method with a View to Wave Rotor Applications.

Abstract

The QAZ1D method is redeveloped in detail and implemented in a first order, one-dimensional FORTRAN program, EULER-1. The program is tested on the shock tube problem and results are presented for various computational meshes and initial conditions. Based on good results of the EULER-1 code, recommendations are made for future extensions and testing to validate the suitability of the QAZ1D method for wave rotor applications. Keywords include: QAZ1D; Wave Rotor; Computational Fluid Dynamics; and EULER.
