Modeling and Simulation of Supersonic Flow in 2D Nozzle Using MacCormack’s and Upwind Methods

Article Preview

Abstract:

In this work, two-dimensional inviscid supersonic flow in nozzle has been investigated using CFD schemes and characteristics method. The employed scheme is MacCormack’s finite volume method. Our own code CHARMAC, was written using MATLAB environment. Standard boundary conditions and the grid parameters were considered to solve the problem. Before analyzing the flow by CFD method, we obtained the ideal nozzle geometry using the method of characteristics for a 2D divergent Nozzle. Using 2D nozzle flow relations, an optimal throat area is found. At the end we compare the results with the advection upstream splitting Method (Ausm) and Fluent.
