Numerical Simulation of Dynamically Deforming Aircraft Configurations Using Overset Grids

摘要

An automatic scheme for the simulation of the flow about a deforming aircraft configuration is presented. The scheme utilizes the overset grid method to perform elastic deformations and to vary the elevator deflection angle, thus avoiding the regeneration of the computational mesh As a part of the scheme, a new method for automatic collar grid generation is developed and presented.
