Hypersonic flight involves a variety of complex flow phenomena that directly impact the aerothermodynamic loading of high-speed vehicles. The turbulence encountered during a typical flight trajectory influences and interacts with the shock waves on …
The interaction of turbulence with shock waves significantly modulates the frequency and amplitude of hydrodynamic fluctuations encountered by aerospace vehicles in low-altitude hypersonic flight. In these high-speed flows, intrinsic compressibility …
The Combustion Toolbox (CT) is a newly developed open-source thermochemical code designed to solve problems involving chemical equilibrium for both gas- and condensed-phase species. The kernel of the code is based on the theoretical framework set …
