Abstract

Computational procedures are described for analyzing three-dimensional supersonic internal flows and multinozzle exhaust plume flowfields. The computer codes (BIGMAC and CHAR3D) embodying these procedures cater to a broad spectrum of geometric situations via the use of multiple reference plane grid networks in several coordinate systems. Shock capturing techniques are employed to trace the propagation and interaction of multiple shock surfaces. Gas properties consist of combustion products in chemical equilibrium. The computational accuracy of the codes is assessed via comparisons with the results of other codes and experimental data. Results are presented for the flows in two-dimensional ducts, corner flows, flow in a rectangular nozzle, and the plume flowfields for exhausts issuing out of single and multiple rectangular nozzles.
