The purpose of this thesis is to implement Finite Volume Weighted Essentially Non-Oscillatory (FV-WENO) scheme to solution of one and two-dimensional discretised Euler equations with different flux algorithms. The effects of the different fluxes on the solution have been tested and discussed. Beside, the effect of the grid on these fluxes has been investigated. Weighted Essentially Non-Oscillatory (WENO) schemes are high order accurate schemes designed for problems with piecewise smooth solutions that involve discontinuities. WENO schemes have been successfully used in applications, especially for problems containing both shocks and complicated smooth solution structures. Fluxes are used as building blocks in FV-WENO scheme. The efficiency of the scheme is dependent on the fluxes used in scheme The applications tested in this thesis are the 1-D Shock Tube Problem, Double Mach Reflection, Supersonic Channel Flow, and supersonic Staggered Wedge Cascade. The numerical solutions for 1-D Shock Tube Problem and the supersonic channel flow are compared with the analytical solutions. The results for the Double Mach Reflection and the supersonic staggered cascade are compared with results from literature.

Fluid structure coupled analysis of an aerodynamic surface
Sümer, Bülent; Akgün, Mehmet A.; Department of Aerospace Engineering (2004)
In this thesis a 3-D Euler flow solver is coupled with a finite element program in order to solve static aeroelastic problems involving aircraft wings. A loosely coupled solution approach based on an iterative solution procedure is used to solve the coupled field problem. Because of the deformation of the underlying surface over which the flow is solved, Computational Fluid Dynamics mesh has to move at each computational aeroelastic iteration in order to comform to the new shape of the aerodynamic surface. ...

The construction and application of the FV-WENO scheme and codes will be described. Also the effects of the grid coefficients as well as the effect of the Gaussian Quadrature on the solution have been tested and discussed. WENO schemes are high order accurate schemes designed for problems with piecewise smooth solutions containing discontinuities. The key ...
Multiploid genetic algorithms for multi-objective turbine blade aerodynamic optimization
Öksüz, Özhan; Akmandor, İbrahim Sinan; Department of Aerospace Engineering (2007)
To decrease the computational cost of genetic algorithm optimizations, surrogate models are used during optimization. Online update of surrogate models and repeated exchange of surrogate models with exact model during genetic optimization converts static optimization problems to dynamic ones. However, genetic algorithms fail to converge to the global optimum in dynamic optimization problems. To address these problems, a multiploid genetic algorithm optimization method is proposed. Multi-fidelity surrogate m...

A three dimensional wing design tool with analysis functions has been developed with embedded Euler/Navier-Stokes flow solver and a three dimensional hyperbolic grid generator. A graphical user interface has been constructed using PYTHON script language and the tool was enhanced with pre-processing and post-processing capabilities. Analysis and design procedures are demonstrated with automatic grid generation, automatic series solution and automatic graphs and reports generation.

Durmuş, Gökhan; Eyi, Sinan; Department of Aeronautical Engineering (2004)
The objective of this thesis is to accomplish the three dimensional parallel thin-layer Navier-Stokes solutions for low aspect ratio rectangular flat wings in compressible flow. Two block parallel Navier Stokes solutions of an aspect ratio 1.0 flat plate with sharp edges are obtained at different Mach numbers and angles of attack. Reynolds numbers are of the order of 1.0E5-3.0E5. Two different grid configurations, the coarse and the fine grids, are applied in order to speed up convergence. In coarse grid co...
