Simulation of the Hypersonic Flow Past a Blunted Cone-cylinder-flare (HB-2) using CFD-FASTRAN

Study of supersonic flows is of high interest for a wide variety of problems including design of high speed planes and other related applications [1]. This user tip presents a validation of numerical methods against experimental data.

Parametric Studies with CFD-FASTRAN

CFD-FASTRAN-GUI has a new "Parametric Set Up" template that allows the user to run parametric cases. Most of the text input fields - including boundary conditions, properties, and solver control parameters - are available for parametric run. This allows the user to submit the parametric cases in one shot and post-process the results later on.
