摘要: Princeton University, Princeton, NJ This paper desribes a technique for finding the numerical solution of Full Potential equation steady transonic flow about airfoils. The exterior but finite domain is discretized by breaking it up into triangles. Difference equations are formulated using variational principle and formula derivative in an arbitrary polygon. iterative schemes include multigrid-AD1 structured grids modified checkerboard more grids. Results show consistency compare favorably with codes quadrilateral elements.
