Shock/boundary-layer interaction model for three-dimensional transonic flow calculations
Abstract
A new computational model for three-dimensional shock-boundary layer interaction has been developed for use in viscous transonic flow calculations. In general, the new model has been found to be an improvement over the old method in which the boundary-layer equations are simply integrated through the shock. The basic empirical content of the method was tested against detailed boundary-layer measurements in two-dimensional transonic airfoil flows, and the new model was found, in general, to give better agreement with experiment. The new model has also been tested in coupled viscous-inviscid interaction calculations for wings and for nacelles.
