The research models inviscid compressible flow at Mach 2 over a two dimensional diamond-shaped airfoil. The objective is to study the interaction of the energy deposition added in the upstream flow on the airfoil. Theoretical results without energy deposition in the inlet boundary and numerical results with no filaments, infinitely long symmetric filament, symmetric pulsed filament, and asymmetric pulsed filament, for Mach number, temperature, pressure in the flow field domain, are obtained. An analysis is performed on the drag coefficient acting on the airfoil. FLUENT, Gambit, and C++ are used for the numerical simulation.;Keywords: supersonic flow, compressible, inviscid, 2-D airfoil, energy deposition, filament, shock wave, Prandtl-Meyer expansion, drag coefficient, CFD... |
