On a Source-Sink Method for the Solution of the Prandtl-Busemann Iteration Equations in Two-Dimensional Compressible Flow

Abstract

The recently derived particular integrals of the Prandtl-Busemann iteration equations make possible the extension of the familiar source-sink concept to the solution of the higher-order iteration equations for the subsonic potential flow over thin sharp-nose symmetric two-dimensional profiles. An explicit expression is derived for the second-order velocity potential and velocity components and a method for obtaining the higher-order terms is indicated. The velocity at the surface of the Kaplan bump is evaluated to illustrate the method.
