Full-Potential Integral Solutions For Steady And Unsteady Transonic Airfoils With And Without Embedded Euler Domains, Hong Hu
Mechanical & Aerospace Engineering Theses & Dissertations
The integral equation solution of the full-potential equation is presented for steady and unsteady transonic airfoil flow problems. The method is also coupled with an embedded Euler domain solution to treat flows with strong shocks for steady flows.
For steady transonic flows, three integral equation schemes are well developed. The first two schemes are based on the integral equation solution of the full-potential equation in terms of the velocity field. The Integral Equation with Shock-Capturing (IE-SC) and the Integral Equation with Shock-Capturing Shock-Fitting (IE-SCSF) schemes have been developed. The IE-SCSF scheme is an extension of the IE-SC scheme, which consists …
