A method for computing the three—dimensional flow about wings with leading—edge vortex separation Part II: Description of computer program VORSEP

In part I of this report a method is described for computing the incompressible flow about slender, thin wings with leading-edge vortex separation. It is assumed that both the wing and the flow field are symmetric with respect to the x—z plane. The method can handle delta—like wings of quite general planform and shape. However, in the...

An approximate method for computing inviscid vortex wake roll-up. Part I: Theory and application

In this report an approximate method is described for computing, through the unsteady analogy, the shape of steady vortex wakes downstream of aircraft configurations in steady flight. In the analogy the steady fully three-dimensional problem is reduced to a two-dimensional timedependent problem, corresponding to the evolution of a two...
