Reasons and benefits of using JAXA Supercomputer System

A high computational performance was required for high load computation such as 3D RANS/LES Hybrid CFD calculations, so that using JSS was necessary and helpful.

Achievements of the Year

Reacting flow field within a supersonic combustor was simulated using a RANS / LES hybrid method. By applying the hybrid method, both flow field (evaluated via pressure distribution, Fig. 1) and mixing phenomena (evaluated via fuel contour at the exit of the combustor, Fig. 2) were nicely simulated in comparison to the RANS method alone.

A method to mimic disturbance on the incoming flow to a combustor from the upstream inlet section was evaluated with CFD. Both flow fields within an engine model with inlet section and a direct-connect combustor with a shock wave generator were simulated with RANS method (Fig. 3), showing validity of the shock wave generator.
