A Coupled Euler/Navier-Stokes Algorithm for 2-D Unsteady Transonic Shock/Boundary-Layer Interaction by Steven Richard Allmaras Submitted to the Department of Aeronautics and Astronautics on 14 February, 1989 in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Computational Fluid Dynamics Abstract This thesis presents a coupled Euler/Navier-Stokes algorithm for solving 2-D un- steady transonic flows. The flowfield is described by a Defect formulation, where sepa- rate Euler and Navier-Stokes algorithms are used on overlapping grids and are coupled through wall transpiration fluxes. The work is separated into three major contributions. The first contribution is a new algorithm for the solution of the 2-D unsteady Euler equations. The algorithm incorporates flux-splitting to capture shocks crisply and with minimal oscillations. To reduce numerical errors, grid independent second order accu- racy is achieved for both steady and unsteady flows. This is done by a formulation in which both solution averages and gradients are stored for each cell. The scheme allows no decoupled modes; hence, no explicitly added artificial is necessary. The second contribution is a Thin-Shear-Layer Navier-Stokes algorithm for viscous regions. The algorithm uses two-point differencing across the boundary layer, which is second order accurate for both inviscid and viscous terms on nonsmooth grids. Flux- splitting is used for the streamwise discretization to capture shocks. The spatial dis- cretization of this scheme also admits no decoupled modes and does not require added artificial dissipation. A semi-implicit time integration is employed, which allows a time step determined by the streamwise grid spacing only. The algorithm uses a dynamic coordinate rescaling to evolve the viscous grid to the changing boundary layer thickness. The final contribution of the work is a explicit relaxation procedure for coupling the Euler and Navier-Stokes algorithms together. The coupling is through boundary conditions-specified outer edge values for the viscous solution and wall transpiration fluxes for the Euler solution. Computational results are presented for a series of duct geometries. The test cases are used to demonstrate the accuracy of the Euler algorithm, the Navier-Stokes algo- rithm, and the fully coupled algorithm. Results are compared with analytic theory, experimental results, and other computational methods. Thesis Supervisor: Michael B. Giles Title: Assistant Professor of Aeronautics and Astronautics 2 Acknowledgements I'm very tired, and I have this one last page left. Thinking back on my 5 1/2 years here at M.I.T., including a summer at NASA Ames and another at Pratt & Whitney, I see so many new people that I've met. Many of them contributed directly to this research, but many more have helped with their friendship. I have space to mention only a few by name here, but I'd like to thank them all. In fact, if you've stopped to read this page, chances are that you are one of them. Thank you. I would like first to thank my advisor and good friend, Mike Giles, who was always around and willing to discuss new ideas, even when they weren't so good. I also appre- ciate all the time he spent editing this thesis. My thanks also go to my other committee members, Profs. Murman and Covert, for all their helpful suggestions. I thank my of- ficial readers Mark Drela, John Dannenhoffer, and Bob Ni, for their comments on this thesis. I've learned so much from Mark and John over the years. Bob also gave me my introduction to industry's way of doing things. I want to also mention some of the gang here, past and present: my office mate, Mark Turner-it sounds morbid, Mark, but thanks for sharing the suffering (and the high points); Jeff Bounds, my roomate for so many years; Itwacvrts KaAAWrEp7s, who also goes by various English aliases; Dana Linquist, who did a fine job of editing; Cathy Mavriplis; Tom Roberts; Rich Shapiro; Bernard Loyd; Eric Ducharme; some of the newer types, Rob Plumley, Pete Silkowski, Bill Steptoe, and Sharon Newman; and Matthew T. Scott, who gave me more with his friendship than he probably realized. Yes, I had my share of computer headaches. My thanks go to Bob Bruen who went out of his way to make things run a little smoother. I'd also like to thank Bob Haimes for his help. During this long journey I've always had support and encouragement from my family: Dad, Mom, my sisters Joan, Kathy, Mary and Colleen, and my two brothers-in-law, Michael and Mark. I can't thank them enough. And finally to Jesus Christ, who was always by my side, even when I didn't see him.

  • Chapter 6 Riemann Solvers I
    Chapter 6 Riemann solvers I The numerical hydrodynamics algorithms we have devised in Chapter 5 were based on the idea of operator splitting between the advection and pressure force terms. The advection was done, for all conserved quantities, using the gas velocity, while the pressure force and work terms were treated as source terms. From Chapter 2 we know, however, thatthecharacteristicsoftheEuler equations are not necessarily all equal to the gas velocity. We have seen that there exist an eigen- vector which indeed has the gas velocity as eigenvectors, λ0 = u,buttherearetwoeigenvectors which have eigenvalues λ = u C which belong to the forward and backward sound propa- ± ± s gation. Mathematically speaking one should do the advectioninthesethreeeigenvectors,using their eigenvalues as advection velocity. The methods in Chapter 5 do not do this. By extracting the pressure terms out of the advection part and adding them asasourceterm,theadvectionpart has been reduced essentially to Burger’s equation,andthepropagationofsoundwavesisentirely driven by the addition of the source terms. Such methods therefore do not formally propagate the sound waves using advection, even though mathematically they should be. All the effort we have done in Chapters 3 and 4 to create the best advection schemes possible will therefore have no effect on the propagation of sound waves. Once could say that for two out of three characteristics our ingeneous advection scheme is useless. Riemann solvers on the other hand keep the pressure terms within the to-be-advected sys- tem. There is no pressure source term in these equations. The mathematical character of the equations remains intact. Such solvers therefore propagateallthecharacteristicsonequalfoot- ing.

  • Chapter 5 the Riemann Problem for Systems
    Chapter 5 The Riemann Problem for Systems Diese Untersuchung macht nicht darauf Anspruch, der experimentellen Forschung nutzliche¨ Ergebnisse zu liefern; der Verfasser wunscht¨ sie nur als einen Beitrag zur Theorie der nicht linearen partiellen Differentialgleichungen betrachtet zu sehen.1 G. F. B. Riemann [153] We return to the conservation law (1.2), but now study the case of systems, i.e., ut + f(u)x =0, (5.1) where u = u(x, t)=(u ,...,u ) and f = f(u)=(f ,...,f ) C2 are vec- 1 n 1 n 2 tors in Rn. (We will not distinguish between row and column vectors, and use whatever is more convenient.) Furthermore, in this chapter we will consider only systems on the line; i.e., the dimension of the underlying physical space is still one. In Chapter 2 we proved existence, uniqueness, and stability of the Cauchy problem for the scalar conservation law in one space dimension, i.e., well-posedness in the sense of Hadamard. However, this is a more subtle question in the case of systems of hyperbolic conservation laws. We will here first discuss the basic concepts for systems: fundamental properties of shock waves and rarefaction waves. In particular, we will discuss various entropy conditions to select the right solutions of the Rankine–Hugoniot relations. Using these results we will eventually be able to prove well-posedness of the Cauchy problem for systems of hyperbolic conservation laws with small variation in the initial data. 1 The present work does not claim to lead to results in experimental research; the author asks only that it be considered as a contribution to the theory of nonlinear partial di↵erential equations.

Dimotakisif Graduate Aeronautical Laboratories Ca.li£ornia Institute of Technology Pasadena, Ca. 91 f 25 Abstract A new approach for studying wave propa.gation phenomena in an inviscid gas is presented. This approacll can be viewed as the extension of the method of charac- teristics to the general case of unsteady multidiinensional flow. The general case of the unsteaclji coillpressible Euler equations in several space dimensions is examined. A fanlily of spacetinle illanifolds is found on wllich an equivalent one-dimensional problem holds. Their geometry clepends on the spatial gradients of the flow, and they provicie, locally, a convenient system of coordinate surfaces for spacetime. In the case of zero entropy gradients, f~~nctionsanalogous to the Riemann invariants of 1-D gas dynamics can be introduced. These generalized Riemann Invariants are constant on these ma.nifolds and, thus, the manifolds are dubbed Riemann Invari- ant Manifolds (RIM). I11 this special case of zero entropy gradients, the equations of motion are integrable on these manifolds, and the problem of computing the solution becomes that of deterinining the inanifold geometry in spacetime. This situation is colnpletely analogous to the traditional method of characteristics in one-dimensional flow.

  • The Hydrodynamical Riemann Problem
    Chapter 5: The Hydrodynamical Riemann Problem 5.1) Introduction 5.1.1) General Introduction to the Riemann Problem We have seen in Chapter 4 that even Burgers equation, the simplest non-linear scalar conservation law, can give rise to complex flow features such as shocks and rarefactions. Linear schemes were seen to be inadequate for treating such problems. In Chapter 3 we realized that a simple non-linear hybridization introduced by TVD limiters could yield a monotonicity preserving reconstruction. In Sub-section 4.5.2 we even designed an approximate Riemann solver for evaluating consistent and properly upwinded numerical fluxes at zone boundaries based on the HLL flux for scalar conservation laws. Such a strategy for obtaining a physically sound flux can indeed be extended to systems to yield a basic second order accurate scheme. Since better fluxes translate into better schemes, in this Chapter we invest a little time to understand strategies for obtaining a good, high-quality, physically consistent flux at the zone boundaries for use in numerical schemes. In this chapter we restrict attention to the Euler equations. However, the next Chapter will show that the insights gained here are of great importance in designing good strategies for obtaining the numerical flux at zone boundaries in numerical schemes for several hyperbolic conservation laws of interest in several areas of science and engineering. In this and the next paragraph we motivate the need for studying the hydrodynamical Riemann problem. Assume that we are solving a problem on a one- dimensional mesh with fluid variables defined at the zone centers.

  • Interaction of Rarefaction Waves of the Two-Dimensional Self-Similar Euler Equations
    Arch. Rational Mech. Anal. 193 (2009) 623–657 Digital Object Identifier (DOI) 10.1007/s00205-008-0140-6 Interaction of Rarefaction Waves of the Two-Dimensional Self-Similar Euler Equations Jiequan Li & Yuxi Zheng Communicated by T.-P. Liu Abstract We construct classical self-similar solutions to the interaction of two arbitrary planar rarefaction waves for the polytropic Euler equations in two space dimensions. The binary interaction represents a major type of interaction in the two-dimensional Riemann problems, and includes in particular the classical problem of the expansion of a wedge of gas into vacuum. Based on the hodograph transformation, the method employed here involves the phase space analysis of a second-order equation and the inversion back to (or development onto) the physical space. 1. Introduction Consider the two-dimensional isentropic compressible Euler system ⎧ ⎨⎪ ρt + (ρu)x + (ρv)y = 0, (ρ ) + (ρ 2 + ) + (ρ v) = , ⎪ u t u p x u y 0 (1) ⎩ 2 (ρv)t + (ρuv)x + (ρv + p)y = 0, where ρ is the density, (u,v) is the velocity and p is the pressure given by p(ρ) = Kργ where K > 0 will be scaled to be one and γ>1 is the gas constant. We are primarily interested in the so-called pseudo-steady case of (1); that is, the solutions depend on the self-similar variables (ξ, η) = (x/t, y/t). The expansion of a wedge of gas into vacuum is such a case. Assuming the flow is irrotational, a classical hodograph transformation (see [22]) can be used to eliminate the two self-similar variables, resulting in a partial differential equation of second order for the speed of sound c in the velocity variables (u,v).
