Calculations of Compressible Flows Using a Pressure Based Method

압력장에 기초한 수치해석 방법을 이용한 압축성 유동장의 수치해석

A previously developed pressure based calculation procedure for incompressible flows was modified and applied to transonic and supersonic flows. It uses pressure as a primary variable in preference to density and body fitted coordinate and non-staggered grid system. The discretized momentum equations were rearranged as a system of equations with respect to covariant velocity components. Three different discretization schemes, QUICK hybrid and first order upwind, were used to approximate the convective terms and compared. Present approach was tested far two transonic flow and one supersonic flow problems. Comparison with previous results show that present approach can be used as a solver for compressible flows.
