Hybrid Techniques in Computational Fluid Dynamics
Abstract
In the spirit of the Air Force Office of Scientific Research's (AFOSR) initiative to promote University-Industry Collaborative Research, a collaborative project entitled, Hybrid Techniques in Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) has been executed by the National Science Foundation Engineering Research Center for Computational Field Simulation (NSF ERC) at Mississippi State University. The industrial participants include McDonnell Douglas Company, Boeing Company, and Teledyne Brown Engineering Company. The research and development activities of this effort are focused on the advancement of methodologies to increase the efficiency, quality, and productivity of an overall CFD simulation associated with geometrically complex configurations. The progress realized in the aforementioned development is presented in this final report. Progress concerning efforts designed to improve the efficiency and applicability of the CFD to geometrically complex configurations utilizing hybrid techniques is presented. This progress has been brought about through the developments and enhancements in hybrid grid generation methodology and solution algorithms for associated Euler and Navier-Stokes equations. In particular, the enhancement of the two and three dimensional hybrid grid system and CFD simulation solver is presented. The development of the three dimensional hybrid grid system and solution system allowing viscous effects with complex examples is presented to demonstrate the success of these methodologies.
