Two Algorithms For Hypersonic Computations

Two new algorithms developed containing several desirable features for computation of viscous, hypersonic flows about three-dimensional geometries. Employ upwind-differencing methods, having unsurpassed abiltiy to capture flow-field discontinuities without need for any user-specified smoothing terms. Particularly important in hypersonic computations where many complicated wave structures exist. Both algorithms based on finite-volume formulation to ensure schemes, including boundary conditions, fully conservative.
