โฆ Synopsis
Transonic flow is an important aerodynamic phenomenon that occurs in the high subsonic Mach number flight regime. This paper presents the development of a numerical simulation for three-dimensional transonic aerodynamic flows around an isolated wing. The mathematical formulation is based on a transonic small-disturbance equation, which is a nonlinear and mixed elliptic-hyperbolic partial-differential equation. A Newton-like iterative scheme is developed for solving the transonic equation, and it is used in conjunction with a preconditioned minimal-residual algorithm. The numerical technique is proven to be efficient and reliable. Computational results for transonic flows around the ONERA M6 wing are presented.

In this paper, numerical methods for solving the transonic full potential equation are developed. The governing equation is discretized by a flux-biasing finite volume method. The resulting non-linear algebraic system is solved by using a continuation method with full Newton iteration. The continuat
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,
