Calculation of flow about posts and powerhead modelA large number of computational fluid mechanics (CFD) problems were investigated. The primary studies include: the analysis of the turnaround duct/hot gas manifold/transfer tubes (fuel side) of the Space Shuttle Main Engine (SSME); the analysis of the LOX-T manifold (oxidizer side) of the SSME; the analysis of hydrogen accumulation in the Vandeburg flame trench; and modification of the Intel/VT241 systems to accommodate the EADS and PLOT 3D. Some of the analyses were exploratory in nature, using the CONTINUSYS code to provide preliminary information to enhance understanding of the problem, while in other the primary thrust was to acquire design information. In all cases the ability to predict information rapidly in these very complex analyses is seen to be an important demonstration of the power and utility of this mature predictive capability.
