Incorporation of Morphing Theory to Aerodynamic Flows
The research reported herein makes use of finite-volume simulations of morphing continuum theory (MCT) to reproduce critical relations of thin-airfoil theory for the simple configuration of a flat plate for supersonic and subsonic flows. With a small mesh size of elements, simulations confirm that inviscid flows simulated by MCT match analytic relations for lift and pressure coefficients derived from classical fluid mechanics, a result confirmed by the inviscid MCT equations. Initial success of MCTHyperFOAM version 1.0 for the flat plate indicates that the solver can be extended to more complex aerodynamic flows.
