Summary
Numerical results obtained for the hypersonic flow (M∞ = 8.25 and M∞ = 25) over a double ellipse are presented. Results are obtained using a Taylor-Galerkin finite element formulation. Non-structured grids of simple linear triangular 3 node elements are used. An Adaptive grid refinement technique based on a simple error estimator to improve the numerical solution near shocks is used.
