Gaseous fission reactor propulsion - fluid dynamics, binary separation, and flow visualization studies
The well developed surface panel method is extended by adding a volume integral term allowing calculation of the full effect of compressibility. The full effect of compressibility is calculated by using mixed type finite difference scheme consistent with the mixed nature of transonic flow. The solution is obtained through successive iteration cycles for subcritical flows and for critical flows the solution is obtained through satisfying the Rankine-Hugoniot relations across the captured shock in addition to the captured shock. The method is applied to airfoils in subcritical and critical flows and the results are in good agreement with the experimental data and finite-difference solutions of the full-potential and Euler equations.
Papers resulting from work performed from January 1, 1987 to July 31, 1987 are listed. Transonic computational schemes based on Integral Equation Formulation of the full potential equation were presented. Classical and zero-total pressure-loss sets of Euler equations applied to delta wings were examined.
