| contents | The present work evaluates the effects of three inflow boundary conditions on large-eddy simulations of supersonic jet flows. The three inlet flow configurations considered are an inviscid profile, a stationary turbulent profile extracted from a RANS calculation, and a time-dependent tripped turbulent profile. The study applies the nodal discontinuous Galerkin spatial discretization to perform the supersonic jet flow simulations. Initially, a mesh and polynomial resolution study is performed to identify the requisites for simulating the supersonic jet flow. The velocity profiles resulting from the three numerical simulations with the different inflow conditions are compared with experimental data. The velocity profiles extracted from the calculation results indicate a major role of the steady turbulent inlet profile on the jet flow behavior, even for the tripped inlet condition. The imposition of a steady turbulent inlet profile could approximate the velocity distributions in the region close to the jet inlet section with the experimental reference. Negligible changes were observed to the velocity profiles far from the inlet section, where a good agreement with the experimental reference was already obtained from the simulations even with the inviscid profile. |
