Features of high-speed aircraft numerical simulation

Abstract

Currently, the creation of new high-speed aircraft is of great interest. The development of such aircraft is associated with the need for experiments and flight tests. The organization of real physical experiments in the field of high speeds is fraught with significant difficulties that can be solved using the numerical simulation method, which makes it possible to significantly simplify the process of creating new products. When developing a high-speed aircraft, it is necessary to take into account the specific aerodynamic and thermophysical features of the processes occurring on the surface of the aircraft and in the shock layer. In this paper, the features of the processes at high speeds are considered on the example of solving the external and internal problems of the gas dynamics of an aircraft. Based on the specifics of these processes, we built a mathematical model that allows us to study the aerodynamics of a high-speed flow around a body in dense layers of the atmosphere and the processes that occur in the combustion chamber.
