Quasi-Simultaneous Viscous-Inviscid Interaction for Transonic Airfoil Flow
نویسنده
چکیده
Following Prandtl, a viscous-inviscid interaction (VII) method is presented, where the flow field is divided into a viscous shear layer and an inviscid outer region. Their coupling is performed with the quasi-simultaneous approach, making use of an appropriately chosen interaction law. Firstly, an engineering example of transonic airfoil flow is presented, in which the interaction law is based on thin-airfoil theory. Thereafter, the VII coupling approach is analyzed by mathematical means, leading to a strongly simplified interaction law, yet allowing calculations beyond maximum lift simply starting from scratch.

Simulation of Pitching and Heaving Airfoil with Oscillation of Flow Boundary Condition
A pressure based implicit procedure to solve the Euler and Navier-Stokes equation is developed to predict transonic viscous and inviscid flows around the pitching and heaving airfoils with a high reslution scheme.

متن کاملA Composite Finite Difference Scheme for Subsonic Transonic Flows (RESEARCH NOTE).
This paper presents a simple and computationally-efficient algorithm for solving steady two-dimensional subsonic and transonic compressible flow over an airfoil. This work uses an interactive viscous-inviscid solution by incorporating the viscous effects in a thin shear-layer. Boundary-layer approximation reduces the Navier-Stokes equations to a parabolic set of coupled, non-linear partial diff...
