Abstract

Steady, hypersonic viscous flows over compression corners with streamwise separation have been computed using the space marching Conservative Supra-Characteristics Method (CSCM-S) of Lombard. The CSCM-S method permits stable space marching of the parabolized Navier-Stokes (PNS) equations through large separated flow regions. The present method has been used to compute surface pressure, heat transfer, and skin friction coefficients for two compression corner cases studied experimentally by Holden and Moselle. The computed results compare favorably with previous Navier-Stokes results and the experimental data. The present method has also been compared with the conventional Beam-Warming scheme for solving the PNS equations. Comparison are made for accuracy, computer time, and computer storage.
