International Journal of Engineering Systems Modelling and Simulation 3(1/2) 2011

Papers from the 2010 Applied Aerodynamics Conference of the Association Aéronautique et Astronautique de France held in Marseille, France.

Numerical Methods

• Hybrid upwind splitting scheme by combining the approaches of Roe and AUFS for compressible flow problems

Laminarity and Transition

• Compressibility effects on laminar-turbulent boundary layer transition
• Transition prediction in transonic turbine configurations using a correlation-based transport equation model

Shock-Wave/Boundary Layer Interaction and Its Control

• Numerical study of shock-turbulent boundary layer interactions with incipient and complete separation
• The structure of turbulence in transonic shock wave/boundary layer interaction
• Application of the passive control of shock wave to the reduction of high-speed impulsive noise

High Mach Number Flows

• Overview of activities at the ISL hypersonic shock tunnels
• Side loads and thermal loads in rocket nozzles. Overview of the CNES-ONERA ATAC programme
