A comparative study fourth order runge KUTTA-TVD scheme and fluent software case of inlet flow problems

Inlet as part of aircraft engine plays important role in controlling the rate of airflow entering to the engine. The shape of inlet has to be designed in such away to make the rate of airflow does not change too much with angle of attack and also not much pressure losses at the time, the airflow ent...

Aeronautical engineering Inlet as part of aircraft engine plays important role in controlling the rate of airflow entering to the engine.
