NUMERICAL SOLUTION OF TRANSIENT FLOW IN WIND TUNNELS

This paper deals with design and analysis of intermittent supersonic wind tunnels. System can be constructed by allowing air at atmospheric pressure to pass through a converging-diverging nozzle, a test section and a diffuser into a vacuum tank. The governing equations of compressible fluid flow have been solved numerically using flux vector splitting method to obtain running time under which it works at the design Mach number. The formulation has been tested on the theory of quasi one-dimensional compressible flow. The numerical results are in good agreement with the results of the theory.Copyright © 2004 by ASME
