✦ Synopsis


The numerical solutions of inviscid rotational (Euler) flows were obtained using an explicit hexahedral unstructured cell vertex finite volume method. A second-order-accurate, one-step Lax -Wendroff scheme was used to solve the unsteady governing equations discretized in conservative form. The transonic circular bump, in which the location and the strength of the captured shock are well predicted, was used as the first test case. The nozzle guide vanes of the VKI low-speed turbine facility were used to validate the Euler code in highly 3D environment. Despite the high turning and the secondary flows which develop, close agreements have been obtained with experimental and numerical results associated with these test cases.
