A computational study of the effect of angles of attack on a double-cone type supersonic inlet with a bleeding system

TL;DR: In this paper, the flow characteristics of a supersonic inlet with a bleeding system under varying angles of attack are studied by computational 3D turbulent flow analysis, where a compressible upwind flux difference-splitting Navier-Stokes method with the k − ω turbulence model is used to analyze the super inlet flowfields.

Numerical simulation of the optimal spacing for a radial finned tube cooled by a rectangular jet. I – Average thermal results

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the average heat transfer on a finned cylinder cooled by a rectangular jet of height H. The authors evaluated the optimal spacing, s, between the fins, and the optimal slot-to-cylinder distance, S/H, which maximizes the overall heat transfer.

Application of the Amplification Factor Transport Transition Model to the Shear Stress Transport Model

TL;DR: In this paper, a two-equation shear stress transport (SST) eddy-viscosity model is used to model the transition of a zeropressure-gradient flat plate and several airfoils, including a multi-element one.

Turbulence modeling of cavitating flows in liquid rocket turbopumps

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors focused on the sensitivities related to the choice of turbulence models on the cavitation prediction in flow setups relevant to cryogenic turbopump inducers, and they found that the sensitivity to the closure model depends on the selection of cavitation model itself; the barotropic equation of state cavitation models are far more sensitive to the turbulence closure than the transport-based models.

The prediction of laminarization with a two-equation model of turbulence

TL;DR: In this article, the local turbulent viscosity is determined from the solution of transport equations for the turbulence kinetic energy and the energy dissipation rate, and the predicted hydrodynamic and heat-transfer development of the boundary layers is in close agreement with the measured behaviour.

The calculation of low-Reynolds-number phenomena with a two-equation model of turbulence

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present numerical predictions of various turbulent shear flows in which the structure of the viscous sublayer exerts appreciable influence on the flow, where the turbulence energy and its dissipation rate are calculated by way of transport equations which are solved simultaneously with the conservation equations for the mean flow.

Heat and mass transfer from rotating cones

TL;DR: In this article, heat transfer by convection from isothermal rotating cones is investigated experimentally by measuring the sublimation rate from naphthalene-coated cones and using the analogy between heat and mass transfer.
