JoshTheEngineer | GMSH: Rocket Nozzle Mesh for SU2 @JoshTheEngineer | Uploaded April 2018 | Updated October 2024, 11 hours ago.
In this video, we will go through all the steps for creating a rocket nozzle mesh for use in the CFD program SU2. Note that the design of the nozzle geometry is handled by my Method of Characteristics (MoC) MATLAB code.
I will be using this exact mesh in some rocket nozzle simulations in my future videos, so stay tuned for those!
If you don't have MATLAB, you can simply download the mesh (.su2 file) from the link below.
===== NOTES =====
The boundary condition marker names for this mesh are the following:
- Inlet
- Nozzle
- Outlet
- Symmetry

What are flap track fairings and what purpose do they serve on an airplane? These canoe-shaped pieces house linkages and mechanisms that connect the flaps to the wing. As an added bonus (if designed correctly), they can help decrease the wave drag by something known as area-ruling.

In order to use Croccos Theorem for the Taylor-Maccoll problem, it is necessary to show why the total enthalpy along a streamline is constant (within the given assumptions). We start with the energy equation couched in terms of the total enthalpy, and reduce the equation with our assumptions from a previous video in this series. The final result will be used in the derivation of Croccos Theorem.")

When youre using a waitbar and your simulation/code is taking too long, it would be nice to have a button that allows you to break out of the iteration loop. The cancel button on the waitbar lets you do just this.
