Abstract

A reduced-order model for unsteady aerodynamic calculations across a range of Mach regimes based on linear convolution and a nonlinear correction factor is developed. Separate investigations are conducted for the sub-, trans-, and supersonic Mach regimes, and overall good results are seen when reduced-order model results are compared with full-order computational-fluid-dynamics solutions, though the reduced-order model errors tend to decrease as the Mach number increases. To assist reduced-order model construction, the method-of-segments simplified model has been created and tested throughout these same Mach regimes. Finally, a practical example of the reduced-order model’s applicability is presented by following a single test case from subsonic up through supersonic flight.
