The Calculation of Streamline Data for Boundary Layer Input,

Abstract

The XYZ Potential Flow Program has been modified to provide an improved calculation of streamlines on the body surface. The improved program also computes the geodesic curvatures of both the streamlines and the equipotential lines to provide input for three-dimensional boundary layer programs using the small cross flow approximation.
