✦ Synopsis


In calculations of transonic flows it is necessary to limit the domain of computation to a size that is manageable by computers. At the boundary of the computational domain, boundary conditions are required to ensure a unique solution. Since wave solutions exist in the unsteady transonic flow field, incorrect boundary conditions may result in spurious reflections from the computational boundary. This may introduce errors into the solution. To prevent the spurious reflections, absorbing boundary conditions are often used on the computational boundary. In this paper we describe a method to derive absorbing boundary conditions for transonic calculations. We demonstrate both theoretically and numerically that the use of the absorbing boundary conditions will reduce the spurious reflections in the calculation.

A new calculation method is presented that allows the use of the acoustic characteristics of a given singularity as a boundary condition for a non-linear one-dimensional flow calculation. The method is based, on the one hand, on the non-linear decomposition of the pressure perturbation into forward

This problem appears when the flow phenomena one is interested in are concentrated on part of the flow region and, for reasons of computational economy, are numer
