Rapid Prediction of Unsteady Three-Dimensional Viscous Flows in Turbopump Geometries

A program is underway to improve the efficiency of a three-dimensional Navier-Stokes code and generalize it for nozzle and turbopump geometries. Code modifications will include the implementation of parallel processing software, incorporating new physical models and generalizing the multi-block capability to allow the simultaneous simulation of nozzle and turbopump configurations. The current report contains details of code modifications, numerical results of several flow simulations and the status of the parallelization effort.
