Model Forum / General / Rockets / June 2004More fun with CFD
I did some more computational fluid dynamic (CFD) analysis, this time of a 1950s era NACA research vehicle called the RM-10. It was used to research supersonic aerodynamics. The page is at: http://www.geocities.com/rocketguy_101/RM10/RM10.html I am still waiting for a software upgrade to allow continued work on the Alpha launch lug. Our present version will not allow me to mesh a fine grid around the lug area to increase the accuracy of the solution.  SignatureDavid Stribling But it _is_ rocket science!

Maybe model the launch lug as an inlet.

Fly straight and true (even on a computer)! MikeyR Day job -- CFD analyist... > Hi David, > What was the CFD code you used? Looks like COSMOS Flo works to me... Stephen. Yup! Good eye Stephen! Our full time analysts use Fluent--I do more structures work (ANSYS FEA) but like fooling around--er, TRAINING with FloWorks! DS > > Hi David, > > What was the CFD code you used? > > Looks like COSMOS Flo works to me... > > Stephen. Hi all, We use Fluent and CFX for our little jobs (< 3million nodes), and a home-grown code for the real ones (30-50 million) on 32-128 processors.... Compute straight and true! MikeyR Some people get to have _all_ of the fun!
