Computation of Three-Dimensional Boundary Layers Including Separation

Abstract

The Special Course presented a comprehensive review of experimental aspects of three-dimensional boundary layers with emphasis on the use of fundamental experiments to improve models for turbulence and transition. A review of various calculation methods was given, including the calculation of transition and calculations which aid in aerodynamic design. Numerical differential methods were discussed and viscous-inviscid interactive schemes and procedures were reviewed. Calculations of corner and tip region flows was covered in detail. Keywords: Aerodynamic characteristics; Boundary layer flow; Boundary layer separation; Boundary layer transition; Turbulent flow; Mathematical models.
