Application of computational fluid dynamics to complex inlet ducts
Abstract
A three-dimensional parabolic Navier-Stokes code, PEPSIG, was used to analyze the flow in the subsonic diffuser section of a typical modern inlet design. The effect of curvature of the diffuser centerline and transitioning cross sections was studied to determine the primary cause of flow distortion in the duct. Total pressure values at the engine compressor face are reported.
