Numerical Investigation of Oleo-Pneumatic Shock Absorber: Setup and Validation

== Abstract ==

The simulation of an oleo-pneumatic shock absorber is discussed focusing on the solver validation and high fidelity case setup. The multi-physics nature of the problem is tackled by conducting a range of validation cases in the base areas expected to be of relevance. A dynamic system model of the shock absorber is used to generate physically consistent boundary conditions. In addition, steady RANS simulations provide a preliminary insight into the internal flow development and to assist in the design of higher resolution grids.
