AbstractThe solution for the flow of an incompressible fluid past an infinitely long wedge with a finite sloping edge (a finite wedge) is generalized by the hodograph method. In the flow thus obtained the axis of symmetry and a sloping edge of the wedge are again part of one streamline. It becomes possible to describe the flow of an ideal gas past a finite wedge if the hypothesis is made that the first singularity on this streamline, along the sloping edge, corresponds to the shoulder of the wedge. For a given wedge, with gradually increasing velocity at infinity upstream, the singularity appears at first at subsonic velocity. Beyond a certain critical velocity at infinity the singularity is always associated with the speed of sound. The hypothesis thus implies that put forward by Maccoll(9) and supported by Busemann(l). A qualitative examination shows that the solution reproduces experimentally known features of the flow of compressible fluid past a finite wedge.

Mathematical Problems

AbstractWe present an outline of the problem of irrotational compressible flow past an airfoil at speeds that lie somewhere between those of the supersonic flight of the Concorde and the subsonic flight of commercial airlines. The problem is simplified and the important role of modifying the equations with physics terms is examined.

AbstractTransonic flow past a Whitcomb airfoil and two modifications of it at Reynolds numbers of the order of ten millions is studied. The numerical modeling is based on the system of Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equations. The flow simulations show that variations of the lift coefficient versus the angle of attack become more abrupt with decreasing curvature of the airfoil in the midchord region. This is caused by an instability of closely spaced local supersonic regions on the upper surface of the airfoil.
