A finite difference method for the calculation of transonic flow about a wing, based on a small perturbation theory

A calculation method, based upon transonic small perturbation theory, is presented for the transonic flow about a semi-wing. The influence of a body can be simulated by prescribing appropriate transverse velocities in a vertical plane through the wing root. Due to the small perturbation assumption the wing should be thin and have little dihedral...
