RTF Analysis-Propulsion/Flowliner

The objective of the current task is to provide a computational framework for design and analysis of the entire fuel supply system of a liquid rocket engine, including high fidelity unsteady turbopump flow analysis. Time-accurate results obtained from shuttle fuel flowliner analysis using 66 Million grid points with 262 overlapped zones will be shown. We will present analysis results along with performance data of the simulation runs on Supercomputers such as Columbia.

Numerical Simulation Of Flow Through An Artificial Heart

Research in both artificial hearts and fluid dynamics benefits from computational studies. Algorithm that implements Navier-Stokes equations of flow extended to simulate flow of viscous, incompressible blood through articifial heart. Ability to compute details of such flow important for two reasons: internal flows with moving boundaries of academic interest in their own right, and many of deficiencies of artificial hearts attributable to dynamics of flow.
