Description:
Two approaches for solving the transonic flow in a multi-block grid were explored. The first approach examines a method involving "zonal decomposition" wherein block boundaries are treated as true boundary surfaces separating interfacing grids. The issues investigated involve techniques for matching solutions at a block boundary. A feasibility study was completed and the results are presented. The second approach involves overlapping grids for differencing across a block boundary near an artificially induced coordinate singularity occurring at a fictitious corner. This approach selects a set of neighboring nodes for the fictitious corner such that the resulting physical cells for a node are topologically the same as any other node on the airfoil surface.
