Abstract

A method for calculating transonic potential flow past a multi-element aerofoil configuration is presented. The method is a hybrid method that is based upon a compressible-flow panel method, valid for subcritical flow, and a finite-difference method that is suitable for supercritical flow calculations. The effectiveness of the proposed method is demonstrated, first by application to a single aerofoil and then to a three-element aerofoil.
