AEROD3D (BACK)

AEROD3D is a fortran code that solves the 3D compressible Euler or Navier-Stokes equations on unstructured tetraedral meshes using a mixed Finite Element/Finite Volume method. Features of the code includes turbulence modelling (by the k-ε model), mesh deformation, explicit and implicit timestepping. The code is second-order accurate and is fully parrallelizd using the MPI message passing library. Its range of applicability is from subsonic flows to hypersonic ones. This code is mainly used for aerodynamical computations for complex geometries in internal or external flows.
