Collaborative Center for Aeronautical Sciences
AFRL/RQAC has a mandate to support a wide range of computational requirements for future Air Force systems.
However, the initial focus for this Collaborative Center will be on developing and integrating all of the computational tools required to perform reliable, high-fidelity, multi-disciplinary analysis of high speed flows, fine-scale unsteady flows, and computational methods.
As such, the CCAS will need to perform research in the following technical areas:i.
High Speed Aero-Physics (for example, thermal/chemical non-equilibrium, rarefied/continuum flow, MHD, hypersonic configurations, shock-shock and shock boundary layer interactions, scramjet flow path analysis, supersonic combustion, steady and unsteady heat transfer, conjugate heat transfer, thermal loads, flow control, etc.)ii.
Fine-Scale Unsteadiness (for example, boundary layers, transition prediction, turbulence excitation/suppression, turbulence models, LES/DNS, separated flow, flow control, plasma/fluidic/mechanical actuation, secondary flow, shear layers, wake flow, acoustic/EM wave propagation, etc.)iii.
Enabling CFD technologies (for example, nonlinear/nonlinear fluid-structure coupling, grid motion/adaptation, generalized overset techniques, high-order and robust algorithms, uncertainty quantification, grid/geometry sensitivities, error assessment, software V&V, computational model experimental validation, interoperable/framework computing, etc.) Technical point of contact is Charles Tyler, AFRL/RQVC, Program Engineer, (937) 904-4045, charles.tyler@wpafb.af.mil.
