Abstract
The importance of nonlinear effects to the solution of two-dimensional adaptive-wall outer-flow problems is presently evaluated by comparing outer-flow solutions computed on the basis of the transonic small perturbation equations with solutions based on the linear Prandtl-Glauert equation. Both methods are applied to simulated measurements of transonic flow past a two-dimensional airfoil in free air. Nonlinear effects are found to be important in the outer-flow solution only where the outer flow included supersonic flow.
