A solution-adaptive marching algorithm is developed and applied to a three-dimensional parabolized Navier-Stokes equation solver. The resulting algorithm obtains accurate solutions by using a spatial-marching/adaptive grid procedure. The adaptation step redistributes grid points line by line in both crossflow directions, with grid point motion controlled by forces analogous to tensional and torsional spring forces with the tensional force proportional to the error measure or weighting functions. The solution-adaptive marching procedure is applied to the hypersonic flow about two generic aircraft configurations. The first of these is an all-body-type geometry with elliptical cross sections and is studied at angles of attack of 0.5, and 15 deg. The second geometry is a generic blended-wing-body design. Results are presented that demonstrate the improvements in flowfield resolution obtainable with the solution-adaptive marching procedure over conventional fixed grid techniques. Computed pitot pressure profiles obtained using the solution-adaptive algorithm show improved agreement with experimental data compared to predictions obtained using a fixed grid.
