Euler calculations of flow over a complete fighter aircraft

Research output: Contribution to conferencePaperpeer-review

Abstract

The paper describes the development of a three dimensional, Euler/Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes code and its application to the calculation of transonic flow about a complete fighter aircraft (wing, body, and horizontal and vertical tails assembly with fared-in inlets). Steinhoff’s blending method of grid-generation is used to generate a global grid about a generic fighter aircraft configuration. Computational results are presented for inviscid transonic flow about a fighter aircraft configuration and comparisons are made with experimental data.
