Abstract

This report gives a collection of several computations13; made on NACA 0012 and NPL 9615 airfoils using a two- dimensional viscous transonic flow analysis based on Bavitz code. The comparisons with experimental results of NPL and NAL indicate that the computer program can be used as a reliable method to compute two-dimensional viscous transonic flows, except in those cases involving strong shock/extensive flow separation.
