A method for simulating 3-D aircraft flow fields with jet plume effects

Abstract

The objective is to develop, demonstrate, and document a coupled flow analysis procedure for computing 3D aircraft flow fields with deflected subsonic and supersonic jet exhaust plumes. The PNS plume code was transferred to the Ames computer facility for execution on the Cray computer. No problems were encountered when installing this code. The Bower's test case is currently being run. This case is being used to fine tune the procedure for coupling the plume code to PANAIR.
