Calculation of Two-Dimensional Inlet Flow Fields in a Supersonic Free Stream by an Implicit Marching Code with Nonorthogonal Mesh Generation: User's Manual

摘要

An implicit, shock-capturing finite-difference code which is used to calculate two-dimensional inlet flow fields in a supersonic free stream is explained. The Euler equations are subjected to general nonorthogonal transformation and a body-fitted coordinate system is employed. The mathematical formulation of the problem is given along with the numerical algorithm. Initial and boundary conditions, numerical stability, program limitations, and accuracy is discussed. An overall program logic as well as instructions for program use and operation are also furnished.
