In this study, vortex dominated flows over a close-coupled canard-wing-body configuration at high angles of attack are studied by using the open-source flow solver, SU2 in a parallel computing environment. Validation studies with solution adaptive grid refinements and turbulence models are first performed. The vortical flow fields due to the canard and wing vortices are assessed in terms of vortex dynamics, vortex breakdown, vortex induced surface pressure distributions and the integrated aerodynamic loads. The spanwise surface pressure distributions and vortex breakdown locations are favorably compared against the experimental and the numerical studies available in the literature. It is shown that the SU2 flow solver equipped with the state of the art tools and models accurately predicts the vortical flow features, vortex breakdowns and the aerodynamic loads for canard-wing-body configurations at high angles of attack.

Computational simulations of fore and aft radiation from ducted fans Ahujat, V.; Özyörük, Yusuf; Long, L.n. (null; 2000-12-01) In this paper, we extend the work of Ozyoruk and Long, for predicting farfield noise from ducted fans using a higher order coupled Euler/Navier-Stokes solver along with a Kirchhoff formulation, to full engine configurations on distributed parallel computers. Incorporating the exhaust along with the inlet raises many issues relating to appropriate grid topologies, multigrid acceleration and the unsteady numerics. These issues are addressed in this paper and simulations pertaining to a realistic engine geomet...
Artificial-neural-network prediction of hexagonal lattice parameters for non-stoichiometric apatites Kockan, Umit; Ozturk, Fahrettin; Evis, Zafer (2014-01-01) In this study, hexagonal lattice parameters (a and c) and unit-cell volumes of non-stoichiometric apatites of M-10(TO4)(6)X-2 are predicted from their ionic radii with artificial neural networks. A multilayer-perceptron network is used for training. The results indicate that the Bayesian regularization method with four neurons in the hidden layer with a tansig activation function and one neuron in the output layer with a purelin function gives the best results. It is found that the errors for the predicted ...
Numerical investigation of characteristics of pitch and roll damping coefficients for missile models Kayabaşı, İskander; Kurtuluş, Dilek Funda; Department of Aerospace Engineering (2012) In this thesis the characteristics of pitch and roll damping coefficients of missile models are investigated by using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) techniques. Experimental data of NACA0012 airfoil, Basic Finner (BF) and Modified Basic Finner (MBF) models are used for validation and verification studies. Numerical computations are performed from subsonic to supersonic flow regimes. Grid refinement and turbulence model selection studies are conducted before starting the dynamic motion simulations. Numer...
Numerical study on effects of computational domain length on flow field in standing wave thermoacoustic couple MERGEN, SÜHAN; Yıldırım, Ender; TÜRKOĞLU, HAŞMET (Elsevier BV, 2019-03-01) For the analysis of thermoacoustic (TA) devices, computational methods are commonly used. In the computational studies found in the literature, the flow domain has been modelled differently by different researchers. A common approach in modelling the flow domain is to truncate the computational domain around the stack, instead of modelling the whole resonator to save computational time. However, where to truncate the domain is not clear. In this study, we have investigated how the simulation results are aff...
Computational simulation and realization of three-dimensional metamaterials with various exotic properties İbili, Hande; Ergül, Özgür Salih; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2019) In this study, computational analysis and realization of three-dimensional metamaterial structures that induce negative and zero permittivity and/or permeability values in their host environment, as well as plasmonic nanoparticles that are used to design metamaterials at optical frequencies are presented. All these electromagnetic problems are challenging since effective material properties become negative/zero, while numerical solvers are commonly developed for ordinary positive parameters. In real life, t...
