Description:
A fully conservative finite-volume algorithm is used to calculate transonic potential flows past isolated airfoils and through two-dimensional channels. The difference equations are solved by a multigrid technique which uses an alternating direction implicit method as a smoothing algorithm. The finite-volume formulation provides a framework within which to treat flows past complicated geometries, while the multigrid/alternating direction scheme provides rapid convergence of the solution to very small residuals.
