Accurate simulation of the fuel-air mixing environment is crucial for high-fidelity scramjet calculations. We compute the velocity fields of jet into supersonic freestream flow and cavity flow typical of scramjet flame-holding applications at different scale resolutions using the partially-averaged Navier–Stokes (PANS) method. We present a sequence of variable resolution computations to demonstrate the potential of PANS method for high-speed mixing environment calculations.
