Summary on Grant Application Form |
|
The research proposed is directed towards the development and testing of efficient algorithms for the solution of viscous flow over aerospace vehicle configurations. The applications envisaged involve the aerodynamics of military, civil and re-entry vehicles at the limits of their flight envelopes. The methodology planned is as follows. A high order scheme based on the Osher FDS scheme with MUSCL will be used to keep the number of mesh points down. A Newton-like approach will be used to linearise the resulting equations. These will be solved using a GMRES linear algebraic method. These elements of the overall code have been demonstrated to be parallelisable by the proposer and his colleagues for 2-d problems of some complexity. The general programme of research is to extend the work to 3-d and with some complex gas physics. The research is expected to be of great relevance to the use of the high performance scalable parallel multi-processors that will start to become available by 1995.
