Abstract: Considering complexity of coupled fluid-solid calculation of low supersonic aircraft under unsteady flight condition, real time aerodynamic heat by outer fluid field is converted into floated third type boundary conditions for decoupled calculation. Take three-dimensional head cone experiencing accelerating diving as example, floated temperature and radiation equilibrium methods are adopted to extract surface heat transfer coefficients for decoupling calculation. Results are compared with coupled results to validate reliability of decoupling methods. It shows that with dispersed state points representing unsteady process, temperature distributions of cone surface at different state points by decoupling methods agree well with coupling ones. Calculating efficiency of decoupling methods is superior to coupling ones. Maximum relative errors of decoupling methods are both within 2%, even as external aerodynamic environment changes dramatically.

Key words: transient, coupled heat transfer of fluid-solid, decoupling calculating method, floated temperature method, radiation equilibrium method
