| Description | Applications of the NASA Ames Parabolized Navier-Stokes (PNS) code to a variety of complex generic configurations is presented. The algorithm, boundary conditions, initial conditions, and grid generators are discussed as applied to these configurations. The PNS code was used as the mainline procedure to numerically simulate the viscous supersonic flow over these generic configurations. The turbulence model that was used in this study is the Baldwin-Lomax model. The boundary conditions are the usual viscous no slip at the wall, and a characteristic procedure is used to fit the bow shock wave which is the outermost boundary. An elliptic grid generator is employed to discretize the flow domain. In addition, an equilibrium air capability has been incorporated into the code. It uses the curve fits of Tannehill, et al. The flow regimes vary from a Mach number of 2 up to 25. Both laminar and turbulent flow are considered. Varying angles of attack have also been computed. Configurations vary from simple cone-type bodies to lifting winged bodies, such as the space shuttle or the generic supersonic cruise fighter. |
