I have nearly completed my 2D gas dynamics code. A rotated Roe-HLL approximate Reimann solver is implemented on a structured trapezoidal grid with MUSCL upwind reconstruction and UMIST limiter to ensure a 2nd order TVD scheme. A RK-4 algorithm is used for time integration. Here is the output computed for Sod's Shock Tube Problem as a test case where P1=10,000 Pa and P2=100,000 Pa at t=.002 seconds. These results are consistent with the exact solutions.
Constants:
MM = 30 g/mol
Specific heat ratio = 1.4
Initial temp = 298 K
Grid:
nx = 800
xmax = 4 m
nt = 10,000
tmax = .01 sec
I am still trying to work out some bugs in its application to 2D axisymmetric flows.
I am Samuel "Red" Otto. This blog documents my progress on projects in propulsion and CFD. In Research Science with Graig Marx, my focus is on the regression behavior of liquefying hybrid rocket fuels, determining the dependence of regression rate coefficients on the Thermal Properties of n-paraffin fuels. In ACSI with David Nassar, I am investigating core flows in a hybrid rocket motor using a MUSCL scheme in conjunction with the Advection Upstream Splitting Method (AUSM) for flux evaluation.
