Unsteady hybrid vortex technique for transonic vortex flows and flutter applications

The well developed surface panel method is extended by adding a volume integral term allowing calculation of the full effect of compressibility. The full effect of compressibility is calculated by using mixed type finite difference scheme consistent with the mixed nature of transonic flow. The solution is obtained through successive iteration cycles for subcritical flows and for critical flows the solution is obtained through satisfying the Rankine-Hugoniot relations across the captured shock in addition to the captured shock. The method is applied to airfoils in subcritical and critical flows and the results are in good agreement with the experimental data and finite-difference solutions of the full-potential and Euler equations.
