A three-dimensional upwind finite element point implicit unstructured grid Euler solverA three-dimensional upwind finite element technique that uses cell-centered quantities and implicit and/or explicit time marching was developed for computing hypersonic inviscid flows using adaptive unstructured grids. This technique was used to predict shock interference on a swept cylinder. An attempt was made to determine the flowfield and, in particular, the pressure augmentation caused by an impinging shock on the swept leading edge of a cowl lip of an engine inlet.
