CFD Analysis for Industrial Applications using xGrid Environment
Journal Title: INCAS BULLETIN - Year 2011, Vol 3, Issue 4
Abstract
Relevant CFD computations are performed in a GRID environment in order to evaluate this technology as a reliable infrastructure for HPSC for complex industrial applications. Several aspects of this environment are presented, including the CFD solver platform based on DxUNSp code developed in INCAS, dedicated pre/postprocessing tools for partitioning and domain decomposition and use of automatic differentiation of source code for optimization problems. Access for users is provided, together with information on our mobile GRID client for access in xGRID, application network for HPSC in fluid mechanics and aerospace research.

Flap Gap Oscillatory Blowing on 2D and 2.5D Wing
Here we present preliminary results obtained in developing an active flow control system for high lift systems at advanced TRL level. The work is based on theoretical and experimental work performed in AVERT EU FP6 proje...
The oxidation behavior of classical thermal barrier coatings exposed to extreme temperature
Thermal barrier coatings (TBC) are designed to protect metal surfaces from extreme temperatures and improve their resistance to oxidation during service. Currently, the most commonly used systems are those that have the...
Theoretical and numerical method in aeroacoustics
The paper deals with the mathematical and numerical modeling of the aerodynamic noise generated by the fluid flow interaction with the solid structure of a rotor blade. Our analysis use Lighthill’s acoustic analogy. Lig...
New Methodology for Optimal Flight Control Using Differential Evolution Algorithms Applied on the Cessna Citation X Business Aircraft – Part 1. Design and Optimization
Setting the appropriate controllers for aircraft stability and control augmentation systems are complicated and time consuming tasks. As in the Linear Quadratic Regulator method gains are found by selecting the appropria...
Performance evaluation of propulsion systems as LEO deorbiting devices
This paper evaluates the possibility of deorbiting a launch vehicle upper-stage at end-of-mission from low Earth orbit, by using an additional propulsion system as a means of achieving deorbiting and complying with the “...
