Verification and Validation of Open-Source Simulation Tools for Supersonic Aircraft Aerodynamic Analysis
… for several flow problems relevant to the supersonic aerodynamics of small-scale, autonomous aircraft concepts. Vehicle concepts used as research platforms to test new aerospace technologies, such as advanced propulsion systems or large sensor payloads, require major modifications to …

The development of the hydraulic analogy
… can be used in either the subsonic, transonic or supersonic range. The theory was intended to be general and showed that an exact analogy exists between free surface water flow and two dimensional gas flow. By theoretical investigation, a new channel was proposed and experiments were conducted. …

Effects of riblets on the performance of the supersonic through-flow fan cascade blades
… the effects of riblets on the performance of the supersonic through-flow fan (STF) cascade blades was performed. The two-dimensional cascade was tested in the Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University intermittent wind tunnel facility, where the Mach and Reynolds (based on chord) numbers …

A Higher-Order Method Implemented in an Unstructured Panel Code to Model Linearized Supersonic Flows
… few panel codes with the capacity to solve supersonic flow fields, and there has been little recently published work done to improve upon them.</p> <p>This work implements supersonic potential flow methods into Cal Poly’s open source panel code, CPanel. CPanel was originally developed to …

Exploring Passive Flow Control Techniques Applied to a Supersonic Multistream Rectangular Nozzle
… experimentally to examine different aspects of a supersonic multistream rectangular nozzle representing a modern airframe-integrated variable cycle engine. The flow is comprised of a core stream (M = 1.6) and bypass (M = 1.0) that merge behind a splitter plate and exit through a Single Expansion …

The Influence of Mixing Duct Length and Phase of Flight on Wall Temperatures of a Rocket Based Combined Cycle Engine in Ejector and Air-Augmented Modes
… within the mixing duct. Launch, transonic, supersonic, and high-altitude cases were all selected from a reference trajectory. Additionally, the interaction between the entrained secondary flow of air and the mixing duct walls was of interest to see if the secondary flow had a natural …
