Reasons and benefits of using JAXA Supercomputer System
A huge amount of computational resources is needed to simulate the aircraft buffet phenomenon which is high-Reynolds number and complex flow including flow separation.
Achievements of the Year
We have simulated low-speed and high-speed buffet toward CFD prediction of full flight envelope. We employed a lattice Boltzmann method(LBM) for the low-speed buffet. Combinig the LBM with a building cube method(BCM) enable large-scale computation. Figure 1 is a result of low-speed buffet simulation on NASA-CRM, where 400M cells are employed in the simulation. The small vortices at the separated shear layer are well resolved. Figure 2 is a result of gloabal stability analysis of high-speed buffet. The unstable modes related with the shock oscillation is obtained. The frequency of the unstable mode increases with the swept angle, which agrees with previous reports qualitatively.
