INTRODUCTION Previous investigations of the direct blunt-body problem have demonstrated the utility of treating the bow shock wave as a discrete discontinuity. (See, for example, refs. 1 to 5.) In each of

8、 these studies, some form of coordinate transformation was used to map the physical space within the shock layer into a rectangular computational domain, with the bow shock wave as one boundary and the body surface as the opposite boundary. These transformations generally pro- duce a nonorthogonal c

However, they usually produce a uniform grid system for calculating the flow-field solution and simplify the application of the boundary conditions at the shock wave and the body surface. Recently, Graves (

10、ref. 6) applied a method for numerically generating an orthogonal coordinate system between two arbitrary continuous curves. By allow- ing one of the curves to be the body surface and the other to be the bow shock wave (which can move with time), this method can be used to construct an orthog- onal

11、coordinate for solving the blunt-body problem. An orthogonal coordinate system of this type leads to a much simpler form of the equations of motion and further simplifies the application of boundary conditions at the body sur- face and the shock wave. In addition, this type of coordinate system can

The purpose of the present paper is to explore the application of the numerically generated orthogonal coordinate system presented in reference 6 to flaw-field problems.

27、 the asymmetry in the u-component of velocity. To start the solution, a shock-wave shape is assumed and the shock-wave velocities are set equal to zero. Properties at the shock wave are computed from the shock-wave relations. Properties on the body surface are computed from modified Newtonian theory

28、, assuming that the entropy is constant on the surface. Properties at a constant value of 5 across the shock layer are approximated by linearly interpolating between the values at the shock wave and the body surface. Solution for Shock Wave A method similar to that used by Weilmuenster and Hamilton

29、(ref. 9) has been used to track the movement of the shock wave during the transient portion of the solution. The method can be summarized as follows (details are given in the appendix). First the pressure is computed on the downstream side of the shock wave by using the two-step difference scheme de

30、scribed previously. With the pressure at the shock wave ps known, the density is computed from the equation 1 1 2 Im + -(Ps - PJ 9 Provided by IHSNot for ResaleNo reproduction or networking permitted without license from IHS-,-,-and then the shock velocity is computed with the equation where V, and

Next, the movement of the shock wave is computed from the following differential equations: dZS - = V, sin Bs dt dr S “ - -vs cos Bs dt where Bs = tanl (drs/dZ) by using the following two-step finite-difference approximations: Predictor step: - (,)

33、 the corrector step. AS the solution approaches convergence, the shock velocity approaches zero and the shock wave remains essentially fixed in space. The shock velocities at convergence are generally less than in magnitude. Convergence and Computational Time The average change in density from one t

34、ime step to the next was used to determine convergence. Based on the results of several test cases, it was found that the solution was converged when the average change in density was less than 2 x 1 Om5. For the cases presented in the present paper, this generally required from 400 to 600 time step

35、s. From timing studies on the Control Data CYBER 175 computer system, it has been found that approximately 3.4 x 1 0-4 sec/point/step were required to compute the flow field and approximately 7.8 x 1 0-4 sec/point/step were required to com- pute the coordinate system. Thus, in the present nonoptimiz

36、ed computer code, approximately 70 percent of the time is spent computing the coordinate system. One obvious method of improving the overall efficiency is to update the coordi- nate system less frequently. For example, it is possible to update the shock wave after each time step and hold the remaind

37、er of the coordinate system fixed for several time steps before recomputing. This would greatly reduce the per- centage of computational time spent on generating the coordinate system.

Since shock-layer thickness changes rapidly at low Mach numbers, this behavior could easily be due to a small change in the effective Mach number for the experimental tests which would change the shock-layer thickness but would have litt
