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...

A simple finite-difference technique for the computation of three-dimensional incompressible laminar boundary layers. Part I: Description of the method

This report consists of two parts. The first part describes a finite-difference scheme for the computation of 3D laminar boundary layers over developable surfaces. The stability of the first variation of the difference scheme is investigated. Some results of actual boundary-layer calculations are presented for flows over swept wings. The second...
