SAUNA: A System for Grid Generation and Flow Simulation Using HybridStructured/Unstructured Grids

摘要

The development of a flow simulation facility for predicting the aerodynamics ofcomplex configurations wherein the grid is composed of both structured and unstructured regions is described. Issues relating to the generation and analysis of such grids and to the accurate and efficient computation of both inviscid and viscous flows thereon are considered. Further the development of a comprehensive post-processing and visualization facility is explored. Techniques are illustrated throughout by application to realistic aircraft geometries.
