Solution Refinement Effectiveness of Multi-Grid Accelerated, Cartesian Grid Based Navier Stokes Solver on Compressible and Laminar Flows

The developed Cartesian-grid based GeULER-NS code is validated for compressible and laminar flows on subsonic viscous flow over a NACA 0012 airfoil. Solution refinement effectiveness and Roe’s flux calculation versus AUSM are tested. Drag coefficient results, skin friction coefficient distribution and symmetric behavior of the distribution are compared with the results from milestone computational studies found in literature.
