Linear stability characteristics of the chamber may be determined by solving the nonhomogeneous wave equation in frequency domain that takes these interactions into account. The discretization of the wave equation with frequency-dependent source terms due to heat release and impedance boundary conditions results in a nonlinear quadratic eigenvalue problem. While the solution of the standard linear quadratic eigenvalue problem can be obtained directly, the nonlinear one requires some linearization procedures to reduce it to the standard general eigenvalue problem. In this paper, three different linearization procedures are investigated. For validation of the considered approaches a canonical problem that contains impedance walls and uniformly distributed heat source is set up and solved analytically. An experimental experimental test case from literature is also considered to assess the utilized linearization methods in terms of convergence and CPU times. It is shown that among the employed linearization approaches, the Taylor series based one yields faster convergence.

© 2017, American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics Inc, AIAA. All rights reserved.Hypersonic flows become popular due to its use in space explorations and military applications. It occurs normally, when a space craft re-enter to the atmosphere. Space crafts are exposed to high temperatures and high pressures because of Earth’s atmosphere and gravity. In addition in high temperatures, gases tend to react with each other. These reactions also have effects on space craft’s surface. In order to calculat...

For analysis, three dimensional Euler equations are solved using both Newton and Newton-GMRES methods and their performances are compared. The Jacobian matrix needed for Newton method is evaluated analytically. Newton-GMRES method is a matrix free solution technique hence it does not require the Jacobian matrix e...

All rights reserved.In this study, we propose a new adaptive weight update law using frequency-limited estimation of the matched uncertainty. Many adaptive parameter adjustment laws try to suppress the effects of uncertainties using forcing terms consisting of tracking error only. However, it has been widely studied that including the uncertainty estimation error in the adaptation law enhances the transient performance significantly. In our pro...
