Abstract
There is a strong need to incorporate LES that can reproduce combustion phenomena with high fidelity into the design process to improve the efficiency of combustor development for aero and rocket engines, but combustion LES is not widely incorporated into the design process in actual development because of its extremely high computational cost. This research aims to reduce the cost of combustion LES to a level where it can be used for combustor design through reduced dimension modeling (ROM) and other means.

Reasons and benefits of using JAXA Supercomputer System
Modeling with methods such as ROM requires high-fidelity combustion LES data, but combustion LES requires solving the governing equations for a large number of species produced by chemical reactions as a three-dimensional unsteady problem. Such an analysis is computationally expensive and cannot be performed without the use of a supercomputer.
Achievements of the Year
A three-dimensional analysis of a supersonic cavity flow at Mach 2 was performed using implicit LES (ILES). Spatial higher-order interpolation (third-order accuracy for scalars and fifth-order accuracy for velocity components) enabled us to capture the three-dimensional structure of supersonic cavity flow with a relatively coarse grid of 1.6 million cells. The calculation was completed in about 7 hours per case using 32 nodes (1536 cores) of JSS3.
