Three-dimensional boundary layer calculations on wings, starting from the fuselage

A computational method is presented for threedimensional turbulent boundary layers. The turbulence model is a simple eddy-viscosity formulation. An hybrid difference scheme is used, which has the robustness of first order schemes and accuracy of second order schemes. The boundary layer is computed in the region of determinacy of the initial data...

A method for the calculation of 3D boundary layers on practical wing configurations

This paper gives a description of a calculation method for 3D turbulent and laminar boundary layers on non-developable surfaces. A simple eddy viscosity model is incorporated in the method. Special attention is given to the organization of the computations to circumvent as much as possible stepsize limitations. The method is also able to proceed...

Calculation of the flow around a swept wing, taking into account the effect of the three-dimensional boundary layer. Part II: Wing with laminar boundary layer on the lower surface

The attached flow around a swept wing has been calcTilated with allowance for the effects of boundary layer and wake. In part I a swept wing was considered with a turbulent boundary layer on both the upper and lower wing surface. The present part of the study deals with the calculation of the flow around the same swept wing with a laminar...
