Computational aerodynamics is also used as a tool for numerical experiments in gaining physical understanding of the drag mechanism due to the geometry of the aftbody, such as the correlation between wave drag and wave distribution of the aftbody geometry. The method utilizes MFD (modified feasible direction) based optimization program, along with the linear slender body aerodynamics, for its elegance and generic optimization convenience. The efforts are focused on inviscid flow. A practical method of reducing the wave drag of a given body is developed for both bodies with pointed end and with base area, using shock wave generator at a particular location on the aftbody. The results show that the MFD optimization program can be effectively utilized in an aerodynamic optimization problem.展开更多

The mild stenosis approximation is used to solve the present problem. The effect of the volume fraction density of the particles, the maximum height attained by the balloon, the radius of the inner tube, which keeps the balloon in position k, and the axial displacement of the balloon have been studied. Flow parameters such as the resistive impedance, the wall shear stress distribution in the stenotic region and its magnitude at the stenosis throat have been computed for different parameters. It is observed that the resistance to flow decreases with increasing values of the axial displacement of the balloon, while the resistance to flow increases with the volume fraction density of the particles, the radius of the inner tube, which keeps the balloon in position k, and the maximum height attained by the balloon. The wall shear stress distribution in the stenotic region possesses a character similar to the resistance to flow with respect to any parameter.展开更多
