A method based on the computational fluid dynamics （CFD） is presented for a flexible waverider＇s design. The generating bodies of this method could be any cones. In addition, either the leading edge or the profile of the scramjet＇s inlet is used as the waverider＇s definition curve, parameterized by the quadric function, the sigmoid function or the B-spline function. Furthermore, several numerical examples are carried out to validate the method and the relevant codes. The CFD results of the configurations show that all the designs are successful. Moreover, primary suggestions are proposed for practical design by comparing the geometrical and aerodynamic performances of the conederived waveriders at Mach 6.
A perturbation finite volume(PFV)method for the convective-diffusion integral equa- tion is developed in this paper.The PFV scheme is an upwind and mixed scheme using any higher-order interpolation and second-order integration approximations,with the least nodes similar to the standard three-point schemes,that is,the number of the nodes needed is equal to unity plus the face-number of the control volume.For instance,in the two-dimensional(2-D)case,only four nodes for the triangle grids and five nodes for the Cartesian grids are utilized,respectively.The PFV scheme is applied on a number of 1-D linear and nonlinear problems,2-D and 3-D flow model equations.Comparing with other standard three-point schemes,the PFV scheme has much smaller numerical diffusion than the first-order upwind scheme(UDS).Its numerical accuracies are also higher than the second-order central scheme(CDS),the power-law scheme(PLS)and QUICK scheme.
