  • Development of a boundary layer transition model for helicopter rotor CFD 
    Hill, J. L. (Cranfield University, 2005)
    A novel transition model has been developed for use in CFD simulations of helicopter rotor aerodynamics. The model includes significantly improved physical modelling of the transition processes occurring in the steady ...
  • Hypersonic flow control using magneto-hydrodynamics 
    Bennett, J. S. (Cranfield University, 2008-01)
    The focus of the present work is on the use of magneto hydrodynamics as a flow control device for supersonic and hypersonic vehicles. A three dimensional parabolized Navier Stokes solver was developed to take ...
  • Numerical methods for vortical flows 
    Knight, Katherine (Cranfield University, 2007-01)
    An investigation into the current methods employed to conserve vorticity in numerical calculations is undertaken. Osher’s flux for the artificial compressibility equations is derived, implemented and validated in Cranfield ...
  • Reduced-order modelling for high-speed aerial weapon aerodynamics 
    Mifsud, Michael (Cranfield University, 2008-10)
    In this work a high-fidelity low-cost surrogate of a computational fluid dynamics analysis tool was developed. This computational tool is composed of general and physics- based approximation methods by which three ...
