Implicit Finite-Difference Simulations of Three-Dimensional Compressible Flow

TL;DR: In this article, an implicit finite-difference procedure for unsteady 3D flow capable of handling arbitrary geometry through the use of general coordinate transformations is described, where viscous effects are optionally incorporated with a "thin-layer" approximation of the Navier-Stokes equations.

Numerical Simulation of Steady Supersonic Viscous Flow

TL;DR: In this paper, a noniterative, implicit, space-marching, finite-difference algorithm is developed for the steady thin-layer Navier-Stokes equations in conservation-law form.

Direct Simulation of Transitional Flow for Hypersonic Reentry Conditions

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present results of flowfield calculations for typical hypersonic reentry conditions encountered by the nose region of the Space Shuttle Orbiter. But, the results demonstrate the effects of rarefaction on the shock and the shock layer, along with the extent of the slip and temperature jump at the surface.

Hypersonic Three-Dimensional Viscous Shock-Layer Flows over Blunt Bodies

TL;DR: In this article, the viscous shock-layer equations have been extended to treat blunt three-dimensional bodies at angle of attack, and numerical solutions have been obtained on sphere-cones at angles of attack up to 38 deg.

On the viscous hypersonic blunt-body problem

TL;DR: In this paper, the Navier-Stokes equations were used to analyze the viscous hypersonic flow past an axisymmetric blunt body in the presence of a perfect gas having constant specific heat, a constant Prandtl number, P, whose numerical value is of order one, and a viscosity coefficient varying as a power of ω of the absolute temperature.

Upstream Influence in Viscous Interaction Problems

TL;DR: In this paper, a study of hypersonic viscous interaction on a flat plate is presented, and it is shown that the numerical solutions develop singular behavior with respect to the initial data employed.
