OSTI ID:6606150
An element based finite control volume procedure is applied to the solution of ablation problems for 2-D axisymmetric geometries. A mesh consisting of four node quadrilateral elements was used. The nodes are allowed to move in response to the surface recession rate. The computational domain is divided into a region with a structured mesh with moving nodes and a region with an unstructured mesh with stationary nodes. The mesh is costrained to move along spines associated with the original mesh. Example problems are presented for the ablation of a realistic nose tip geometry exposed to aerodynamic heating from a uniform free stream environment.
