Book Description
Many aerodynamic configurations are too complex to be represented by a single computational mesh. A multiple-mesh domain decomposition method called chimera has been developed to allow complex aerodynamic configurations to be modeled by a system of individually generated meshes, each representing a component of the overall configuration. The chimera approach requires the use of two computer codes, PEGSUS and a flow solver. PEGSUS calculates the interactions among the meshes and produces a file consisting of interpolation information that is used by the flow solver to obtain a global flow-field solution for the entire mesh system. This report documents the design and use of the latest version (4.0) of PEGSUS, and describes techniques for proper modeling of complex aerodynamic configurations.

Book Description
The overall objective of this study was to develop a 3-D numerical analysis for compressor casing treatment flowfields. The current version of the computer code resulting from this study is referred to as ADPAC (Advanced Ducted Propfan Analysis Codes-Version 7). This report is intended to serve as a computer program user's manual for the ADPAC code developed under Tasks 6 and 7 of the NASA Contract. The ADPAC program is based on a flexible multiple- block grid discretization scheme permitting coupled 2-D/3-D mesh block solutions with application to a wide variety of geometries. Aerodynamic calculations are based on a four-stage Runge-Kutta time-marching finite volume solution technique with added numerical dissipation. Steady flow predictions are accelerated by a multigrid procedure. An iterative implicit algorithm is available for rapid time-dependent flow calculations, and an advanced two equation turbulence model is incorporated to predict complex turbulent flows. The consolidated code generated during this study is capable of executing in either a serial or parallel computing mode from a single source code. Numerous examples are given in the form of test cases to demonstrate the utility of this approach for predicting the aerodynamics of modem turbomachinery configurations.
An Introductory Guide to Scientific Visualization
Author: Rae EarnshawPublisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 3642581013
Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 170
Book Description
Scientific visualization is concerned with exploring data and information insuch a way as to gain understanding and insight into the data. This is a fundamental objective of much scientific investigation. To achieve this goal, scientific visualization utilises aspects in the areas of computergraphics, user-interface methodology, image processing, system design, and signal processing. This volume is intended for readers new to the field and who require a quick and easy-to-read summary of what scientific visualization is and what it can do. Written in a popular andjournalistic style with many illustrations it will enable readers to appreciate the benefits of scientific visualization and how current tools can be exploited in many application areas. This volume is indispensible for scientists and research workers who have never used computer graphics or other visual tools before, and who wish to find out the benefitsand advantages of the new approaches.
