Abstract
Several numerical methods exist for solving two-dimensional transonic full potential equations, appear due to conservative or non-conservative forms of equations, satisfying boundary conditions on the surface of the body13; by extra polation or by using body fitted curvilinear coordinates obtained by different methods. Holst solved the conservative full potential equation fortransonic flow past arbitrary airfoil s and developed the TAD? code. The object of this work is to adapt the code to the existing computers (DZ 1090 and UNIVAC ll00/60HI) and try it out on various conventional and super critical airfoils Modifications are then introduced to improve the prediction of pressure distribution and shock position on13; super critical airfoils having extended regions of supersonic The differences flow , A suitable second order artificial viscosity term has been presented here and introduced in TAIR to get a second order accurate solution throughout the flow field except at the shock wave position , where it reverts to first order. The modified13; version of the code STAIR has been added are in the annexure.
