Abstract

Most high-order methods often suffer from two- and three-dimensional unstructured grids, particularly, for supersonic and hypersonic gas flows. We applied a high-order mixed-modal discontinuous Galerkin method with a coupled slope limiter to investigate multidimensional cases of supersonic and hypersonic gas flows. Furthermore, we provide detailed implementations and validations of two- and three-dimensional problems. Examples include double Mach reflection problems and supersonic and hypersonic gas flows around a cylinder. In addition, we provide case studies of a 3D hypersonic vehicle to evaluate its computational performance on complex hypersonic gas flows. This study can be regarded as an attempt to apply the discontinuous Galerkin method to engineering problems.
