Large Eddy Simulation of Hypersonic Turbulent Boundary Layers
Abstrak
The recent revival of interest in developing new hypersonic vehicles brings attention to the need for accurate prediction of hypersonic flows by computational methods. One of the challenges is prediction of aerothermodynamic loading over the surface of the vehicles. Reynolds Average Navier-Stokes (RANS) methods have not shown consistent accuracy in prediction of such flows. Therefore, new methods including Large Eddy Simulations (LES) should be investigated. In this paper, the LES method is used for prediction of the boundary layer over a flat plate. A new recycling-rescaling method is tested. The method uses total enthalpy and static pressure along with the velocity components to produce the best results for the Law of the Wall, turbulent statistics and turbulent Prandtl number.
