Tools

Web-based tools I've developed, usually pertaining to topics I've taught or research I've done.

Compressible Aerodynamics Calculator

A straightforward calculator for several compressible aerodynamics topics. Three separate calculators are included on the page: Isentropic Flow Relations, Normal Shock Relations, and Oblique Shock Relations.

Colebrook Equation Solver

This tool will iterate to find the appropriate friction factor given fluid properties, pipe diameter, pipe roughness, and volume flow rate.

First Cell Height Estimator

Estimate the first cell height from a wall based on a desired y+ value. This is predominantly used for developing meshes to be used for CFD runs involving turbulence models.

US Standard Atmosphere Calculator

Estimate the properties of air at altitudes up to 86 km (282,152 ft) based on the 1976 US Standard Atmosphere Model.
