The solution for the steady three-dimensional inviscid flow about supersonic blunt cones at angle of attack is obtained by coupling a direct time-dependent solution for the subsonic portion of the shock layer with steady state numerical afterbody solution. An outline is given covering the coupling scheme and the use of the resulting Fortran computer code.

The three-dimensional flow field around blunted bodies traveling at supersonic speed is computed using a time-dependent technique. The problem is mathematically well posed, the technique is stable and its accuracy increases with the fineness of the mesh. Values at points within the shock layer are computed by a method closely related to the Lax-Wendroff technique. Values at shock points and body points are computed by a four-dimensional method of characteristics.

The three-dimensional ideal gas flow in the shock layer of a blunted supersonic cone at an angle of attack is calculated using two asymptotic solutions. The first solution calculates the steady state flow in the subsonic nose region by obtaining a time-dependent solution of the hyperbolic equations using numerical techniques. Internal, nonboundary points are calculated using a Lax-Wendroff numerical type technique. Boundary points, shock and body surface, are computed using a time-dependent method of characteristics. When a steady state solution is reached the flow properties on a surface of constant [theta], (where the Mach number is everywhere> 1) are used for initial data for the afterbody solution. The afterbody solution, using polar coordinates (r, [theta], [phi]) assumes at r0 an arbitrary set of initial conditions provided by the nose region solution and computes the downstream flow as a function of [theta], [phi], and r until an asymptotic state independent of r develops. The interior mesh points are again calculated using a Lax- Wendroff type technique and the boundary points by a method of characteristics. This report covers the coupling of the time-dependent and radius (r) dependent solutions. Instructions are given for the operation of the resulting Fortran code. The type of input data required is detailed and sample output is provided. Output data is given in two sets of coordinates. One is wind orientated; the other set is given in body orientated coordinates; The analytical transformation from one coordinate system to the other is given.

Comparisons are made between the cylindrical and polar coordinate system used in determining the three-dimensional shock layer flow over the nose region of a blunted supersonic vehicle. Jusfification for the development of a polar coordinate system is given and an outline for such development is presented. Results from the polar coordinate system are given as is the limiting useful range.

A system of computer programs was developed to solve supersonic inviscid nonuniform flows over sharp and spherically blunted cones at angles of attack. For blunt cones the flow fields considered were axisymmetric wake flows situated so that flow in the subsonic nose region remained axisymmetric. For sharp cones both axisymmetric wake flows and two-dimensional shear flows were considered. The programs incorporate a modified inverse method for solving subsonic flow regions and modified axisymmetric and three-dimensional method of characteristics procedures for solving supersonic flow regions.

A system of six computer programs which may be arranged into several program packages for the purpose of solving inviscid flow fields over sharp and spherically blunted cones at angle of attack in both uniform and nonuniform supersonic free streams has been developed. These programs are written in standard FORTRAN 4 and are currently being run on the Virginia Polytechnic Inst. and State University IBM 370/155 computer. The six programs include a modified inverse blunt body solution program, a modified axisymmetric method of characteristics program, a modified three-dimensional method of characteristics program, two sharp cone zero and nonzero angle of attack uniform flow solution programs, and a master data input control program which reads input data and passes information to the other programs.
