Analysis of unsteady supersonic cavity flow employing an adaptive meshing algorithm (Q2564658)

We present numerical analysis of a supersonic cavity flow, including the effects of length scale, computational grid and time scale. A turbulent flow over a two-dimensional cavity has been analyzed through solutions of the Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equations. The effects of turbulence were modelled through a coupled solution of a \(k\)-\(\omega\) turbulence model using compressibility corrections. A Riemann solver was employed, and an adaptive mesh refinement technique has been used to capture the features of the transient fluid flow.
