Application of New Algorithms for the Simulation of Multidisciplinary Problems: Fluid Structure Thermal and Control Coupling

摘要

The overall objective of the research carried out over the last three years was the development of new algorithms for the efficient simulation of multidisciplinary problems that require the simulation of viscous, conducting, compressible flows around or within moving, structurally and thermally responding structures. The development was based on current 3-D Euler/Navier- Stokes capabilities, and encompassed flow solvers, grid generation, CFD-CSD-CTD integration, optimal shape design, and the efficient use of emerging super computer hardware. The research carried out over the last three years significantly advanced the state of the art in this are CFD.
