Popis: | In this paper we discuss the background and applications of a new unified series of codes for predicting large angle-of-attack viscous supersonic/hypersonic flows over spherically blunt re-entry vehicles and decoys. The solution scheme used involves a viscous shock-layer code for the blunt nose region, whereas a new parabolized Navier-Stokes (PNS) technique is used for the afterbody region. This new three-dimensional PNS scheme is unconditionally time-like and does not require the use of any sublayer approximation. A new predictor-corrector solution technique has been used along with a new fully-implicit and crossflow-coupled shock-fitting procedure to address the large angle-of-attack problem and to predict the bow shock location as a part of the marching solution. Several test cases are presented for various multiconic geometries under zero and nonzero angles of attack. The results of these test cases are used to demonstrate the accuracy, efficiency, and robustness of the unified viscous shock-layer (VSL) and PNS solution scheme. |
