Analysis of turbulent underexpanded jets. I - Parabolized Navier-Stokes model, SCIPVIS

A new computational model (SCIPVIS) is described which predicts the multiple-cell wave/shock structure in underexpanded or overexpanded turbulent jets. SCIPVIS solves the parabolized Navier-Stokes jet-mixing equations utilizing a shock-capturing approach in supersonic regions of the jet and a pressure-split approach in subsonic regions. Turbulence processes are represented by the solution of compressibility-corrected two-equation turbulence models. SCIPVIS presently analyzes jets exhausting into a quiescent or supersonic external stream for which a single-pass spatial-marching solution can be obtained. The features of SCIPVIS are reviewed, and calculations are described exhibiting the influence of turbulence modelling, jet temperature, and flight velocity on the jet shock structure.
