© 2013, American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics Inc. All rights reserved.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 used. Sensitivities are calculated by using finite-difference, direct differentiation and adjoint methods. The objective of the design is to generate a hypersonic blunt geometry that produces the minimum pressure drag while keeping the maximum temperature smaller than the initial value. Bezier curves are used for geometry modification. The performance of the optimization method is demonstrated for different hypersonic flow conditions.

Aerodynamic parameter estimation of a supersonic air to air missile with rapid speed variation Bayoglu, Tugba; Nalci, Mehmet Ozan; Kutay, Ali Türker (2016-01-01) © 2016 by the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics, Inc. All rights reserved.Maneuver inputs designed for aircraft parameter identification are often applied during the aircraft flies close to a trimmed flight condition at an approximately constant Mach number. Since a fixed wing aircraft has control over its thrust and speed, various maneuver inputs can be applied to identify aerodynamic derivatives at discrete Mach numbers. On the contrary, most agile missile configurations do not have contr...
Static aeroelastic analysis of supersonic nozzles and performance response Duzel, U.; Eyi, Sinan (2014-01-01) © 2014 by the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics, Inc. All rights reserved.The effects of static aeroelasticity on the performance of supersonic nozzles are analyzed. A flow analysis was conducted to investigate five different configurations of two dimensional convergingdiverging nozzles. Computational results are validated with experimental data. Two of the configurations, which have the same throat area, throat radius, and convergence angle and total nozzle length are selected as the basel...
Aeroelastic Model Corrections of a Very Light Aircraft; Implications on Static Trim, Flutter and Gust Response Demirer, Halime Gül; Kayran, Altan (2022-01-01) © 2022, American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics Inc, AIAA. All rights reserved.This paper discusses the aeroelastic model corrections employed in the static and dynamic aeroelastic analysis of a very light aircraft. MSC.FlightLoads and MSC.Nastran are used for aeroelastic modeling and analysis. Discussion covers improvement of the aerodynamic solution, aerodynamic modeling approaches and aero-structure coupling alternatives. Aerodynamic calculations are based on the Doublet-Lattice Method (DLM). ...
Noise prediction of a transonic cavity flow via shear-layer-adapted delayed detached-eddy simulation Yalçın, Özgür; Özyörük, Yusuf (2018-01-01) © 2018 by the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics, Inc. All rights reserved.An open cavity flow contains a highly turbulent shear layer which separates from the upstream edge and impinges on the aft wall of the cavity, causing intense noise emission. In this study, a delayed detached-eddy simulation (DDES) with the use of "shear-layer-adapted" subgrid length scale, an enhancement of DDES available in literature, is conducted for such an open cavity flow problem. The results show that this len...
Aerodynamic optimization of wing-body configuration using discrete adjoint method Yıldırım, Ahmet; Eyi, Sinan (2017-01-01) © 2017, American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics Inc, AIAA. All rights reserved.The gradient based sensitivities required by design optimization are obtained by three different methods based on three dimensional Euler equations. Finite difference, Direct and Adjoint methods are used to compute objective sensitivities. A cell centered, upwind based finite volume method is implemented to discretize the Euler equations. The flow solution is obtained by preconditioned matrix-free Newton-GMRES algorith...
