Abstract : A numerical study for a two-dimensional mixed compression supersonic air intake with different cowl deflections has been made with and without back pressure. Numerical simulations have been made with RANS solver using a k-w turbulence model. Overall flow field existing inside intake has been captured which indicates the change in flow field with cowl deflection angle. Overall performance has been obtained. Computations have been also made with bleed. The computed data are compared with available experimental and numerical results and indicated a good comparison. Results obtained through the present series of computation indicate an improvement in performance with small cowl deflection which is comparable to performance with 2.8 per cent bleed. |
