The Flow about and behind Three Dimensional Lifting Surfaces and the Aerodynamic Noise Produced in Compressible Subsonic Flows

Abstract

The work is proceeding along two separate paths which it is hoped eventually to amalgamate. One investigation consists of numerical work on the rolling up of the wing trailing vortex system when it is represented by discrete vortices according to a series of models of increasing complexity. The other is a detailed investigation of the flow field near wing tips and wake edges, including thickness effects. It is felt that the precise flow field near wing tips and the wake edges must be understood if the rolling up and structure of the trailing-vortex cores is to be properly studied.
