Abstract
The purpose of the iGreen research is to develop and mature a bunch of advanced and innovative technologies on aerodynamics, aeroacoustics, and structures to enable airframe design with higher environmental performances. In addition to verifying practical application of these technologies, we will also work on the development of elemental and system technologies.

Reasons and benefits of using JAXA Supercomputer System
CFD analysis are used for the understanding of aerodynamic characteristics and evaluation of the performance in the aircraft design phase. Huge calculation resources and costs were required for the high fidelity and quick response CFD analysis for the optimum aerodynamic design process on complex aircraft geometry. JSS3 can achieve those requirements, the cost and time are drastically saved on the CFD analysis.
Achievements of the Year
Collaborative research activities with universities have been conducted for aerodynamic technologies to improve the environmental performances of subsonic aircraft such as low fuel consumption and low noise. In this year, in order to control the shock-wave structure and flow separation caused by the shock-boundary layer interaction, flow behaviors and aerodynamic characteristics to suppress of shock-wave strength and flow separation were understood using several shapes of aerodynamic device attached on the wing by numerical analysis. Design guideline for aerodynamic devices to control the shock-wave for improvement of aerodynamic characteristics were obtained.
