This webinar focuses on conducting a computational fluid dynamic simulation to understand the complex flow physics in the intake of a supersonic aircraft engine. The main objective of this webinar is to demonstrate how computational methods can be used to understand flow patterns within problems that are difficult to simulate experimentally.

Supersonic inlet aerodynamics involves complex flow phenomena such as flow compression, flow deceleration, shock waves, turbulent boundary layers, shock / boundary layer interactions, separated flow, flow control, etc. Developing an experimental set up to accurately visualize these process is a challenging task. With computational tools, it is relatively easy to simulate the same flow phenomena on a computer. Once a computational setup is created to replicate established data, the same setup can be used to understand the flow field on a different geometry. This set-up can be further used to conduct parametric studies to compare the efficiency of various designs in maximizing total pressure recovery, limiting total pressure distortion, and limit inlet drag of an intake

In the webinar, we will generate a geometry in Ansys SpaceClaim and generate a structured mesh using blocking technology. The mesh will be solved in Ansys Fluent to capture relevant flow phenomena.

Key takeaways from this webinar:
Usefulness of simulation in solving problems difficult to reproduce experimentally.
Visualization of complex flow patterns in a supersonic intake duct.
Usefulness of Ansys CFD workflow to simulate complex fluid dynamic flow fields.
