flow_optimization_1996_isu


flow_optimization_1996_isu, the Latex source for a report on flow sensititivies with respect to the Reynolds number, which were used in a sort of Taylor series expansion, so that flows with larger Reynolds numbers could be represented by their first six coefficients in the Taylor expansion. This work was done at Iowa State University under the guidance of Janet Peterson.

These notes describe the theory behind the approximation, and the methods used to determine the sensitivities, and to solve the system that determines the appropriate Taylor series coefficients at a new Reynolds number.
