US Air Force: Hypersonic Turbulence Models Research

The United States Air Force Academy is soliciting white papers/proposals or projects in the general topic area of hypersonic boundary layer transition modeling.

Prospective offerors may respond to one of the following HVSI desired research areas or may propose
other research studies in these general topic areas:
1. Critical evaluation of historical experimental data

2. Design and execution of experiments that include accurate knowledge of the mean flow and detailed measurements

3. Development or improvement of transition models consistent with RANS CFD simulations

4. Development of transition models that also include the impact of other important issues

5. Creation of a taxonomy

6. Creation of a methodology to develop models for hypersonic boundary layer transition

7. Development of other transition prediction methodologies

 

 

Funding: $2,000,000 total 

Duration: 3 years
