Demonstration of a Supersonic Box Method for Unsteady Aerodynamics of Nonplanar Wings. Part I. General Applications.

Abstract

The report presents and interprets the calculations of the unsteady aerodynamic prediction method known as the 'Nonplanar Mach Box' method. It contains examples of data input and output for the associated computer program and explains the program's interpretation of the user's modal data. Also included are summaries of convergence properties, comparison with exact linearized theory, and a brief outline of the calculations for the Advisory Group for Aeronautical Research and Development (AGARD) planforms.
