5. 3. Prediction of Wing Section Lift and Drag from Numerical Solutions of the Navier-Stokes Equations

   Author : Björn Regnström; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; airfoil; incompresible flow; computational fluid dynamics; transition; numerical analysis; boundary layer stability;

   Abstract : A Navier-Stokes finite difference method is developed and applied to two-dimensional, incompressible, viscous flow around wing sections at medium to high Reynolds numbers. An important feature of such flows is laminar boundary layers with spatially amplified Tollmien-Schlichting waves initiating transition to turbulence. READ MORE
