Computational aerodynamics of ordered vortex flows

The physical aspects, the mathematical modeling, the development and application of computational methods for the simulation of vertical flows are described. The high-Reynolds number vortex flows considered are assumed to be steady, sub-critical and such that the structure of the flow is well-ordered and consists of thin shear layers and slender...

CAR 88: A method to calculate subsonic and supersonic, steady and unsteady, potential flow about complex configurations

A description is given of the method CAR88 for the calculation of steady and time-linearized unsteady subsonic and supersonic flow about complex 2-D and 3-D configurations. The method belongs to the category of the socalled panel methods. Results of applications in supersonic flow are shown which have been made to a 2-D oscillating flat plate, a...

3D Euler flow simulations on a cyber 205 vector computer

A computational method for solving the 3D Euler equations is studied. The method is based upon an upwind flux-difference splitting scheme by Osher, exhibiting an implicit mechanism for numerical viscosity, in connection with an explicit time-marching finite-volume technique. The computer program is developed to run efficiently on both a scalar...

Comparison of boundary layer calculations for the root section of a wing

At the workshop nine participants presented the results of their calculations for a practical test case. The test case deals with the 3D turbulent boundary layer development, including separation, on the root section of a swept wing. The employed calculation methods comprise 3D integral methods as well as field methods. A short description of...
