Arbitrary Grid CFD Algorithm for Configuration Aerodynamics Analysis. Volume 1:Theory and Validations

摘要

This report documents the user input and output data requirements for the FEMNASfinite element Navier-Stokes code for real-gas simulations of external aerodynamics flowfields. This code was developed for the configuration aerodynamics branch of NASA ARC, under SBIR Phase 2 contract NAS2-124568 by Computational Mechanics Corporation (COMCO). This report is in two volumes. Volume 1 contains the theory for the derived finite element algorithm and describes the test cases used to validate the computer program described in the Volume 2 user guide.
