The purpose of this study is to develop an accurate and efficient CFD code that can be used in hypersonic flows. The flow analysis is based on the three dimensional Navier-Stokes equations. The analytical method is used to calculate the Jacobian matrix. Flow parameters and convective heat transfer are analyzed on Apollo AS-202 Command Module. Also, algebraic Baldwin-Lomax turbulence model is used to analyze hypersonic turbulent flow and the one-equation Spalart-Allmaras turbulence model will be implemented since this turbulence model is numerically robust and generally gives good predictions in hypersonic applications.

Aerothermodynamic design optimization in hypersonic flows Eyi, Sinan (2013-09-16) The objective of this study is to develop a reliable and efficient design tool that can be used in hypersonic flows. The flow analysis is based on the axisymmetric Euler and the finite rate chemical reaction equations. These coupled equations are solved by using Newton's method. The analytical and numerical methods are used to calculate Jacobian matrices. The effects of error in numerical Jacobians on the performance of flow and sensitivity analyses are studied. A gradient based numerical optimization is us...

Aerothermodynamic Design Optimization of Hypersonic Vehicles Eyi, Sinan; Boyd, Iain D. (American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics (AIAA), 2019-04-01) The objective of this study is to develop a reliable and efficient design optimization method for hypersonic vehicles focused on aerothermodynamic environments. Considering the nature of hypersonic flight, a high-fidelity aerothermodynamic analysis code is used for the simulation of weakly ionized hypersonic flows in thermochemical nonequilibrium. A gradient-based method is implemented for optimization. Bezier or nonuniform rational basis spline curves are used to parametrize the geometry or the geometry ch...
