| Description | Numerical codes developed for the calculation of three-dimensional nozzle exhaust flow fields associated with hypersonic airbreathing aircraft are described. Both codes employ reference plane grid networks with respect to three coordinate systems. Program CHAR3D is a characteristic code utilizing a new wave preserving network within the reference planes, while program BIGMAC is a finite difference code utilizing conservation variables and a one-sided difference algorithm. Secondary waves are numerically captured by both codes, while the underexpansion shock and plume boundary are treated discretely. The exhaust gas properties consist of hydrogen-air combustion product mixtures in local chemical equilibrium. Nozzle contours are treated by a newly developed geometry package based on dual cubic splines. Results are presented for simple configurations demonstrating two- and three-dimensional multiple wave interactions. |
