Abstract

SUMMARY Analysis/design calculations of transonic flow are discussed and several improvements are made. The nonisentropic potential method is used to calculate the inviscid transonic flow analysis problem instead of the traditional potential method. An inverse integral 3D boundary layer method is used to calculate the boundary layer in the viscous transonic flow analysis problem. The viscous/inviscid interaction calculations are carried out by a semi-inverse coupling scheme. In design problem calculations, an improved residual-correction method is used. Three individual methods are combined in a global algorithm and computing code. The improvements speed up the convergence, increase applicability and computational efficiency. Some numerical results are given to illustrate that the present method provides an effective engineering tool of high accuracy and efficiency in three dimensional transonic analysis and design situations.
