Towards aerothermoelastic simulations of supersonic flow through nozzles

E©cient numericalmethods are necessary to simulate the interaction of aerodynamic loading, heat transfer, and structural deformation. This paper presents a partitioned approachusing seperate single ¦eld solvers for§uidandthermoelasticproblemscoupledbythethirdsoftwarepackage. The methods implemented in the used modules are described. On the way towards an aerothermoelastic solver, a stepwise validation is required. Here,the successfulvalidationof the thermoelastic andaeroelastic solver is shown.
