More Book Details

Description of the Book:

This AGARDograph surveys some of the capabilities of the CFD community for griding complex three-dimensional configurations. The intent is to provide some insight as to the present state of grid generation for aircraft configurations in order to help assess whether this task presents a long term stumbling block to routine use of CFD in aerodynamic applications. This AGARDograph begins with a brief review of some of the techniques that are available for generating body-conforming curvilinear grids. In order to assess capabilities in grid generation, colleagues at selected institutions were solicited to describe their experiences and difficulties in grid generation of complex configurations. The intent here was not to describe the very latest in grid generation procedures, but to solicit honest comments about what are the difficulties in generating practical grids and what steps are taken to meet these difficulties. These experiences, which comprise the heart of this AGARDograph, are presented as case histories.
