N2 - A recently-developed unstructured Cartesian-grid code, SPLITFLOW, was used to compute the flow over the NASA-LaRC Modular Transonic Vortex Interaction model. The code features rapid automatic grid generation and grid adaption. Predicted forces and surface pressures were compared to experimental data provided by NASA-Langley at a range of angles of attack, using several geometric variations of the model. SPLITFLOW produced reasonable force and pressure predictions at angles of attack up to 40 degrees. The aerodynamic effects of variations in significant geometric features such as chined forebody cross-sectional shapes and vertical tail placements were computationally investigated.
