The 3-D Euler and Navier-Stokes calculations for aircraft components

An explicit multistage Runge-Kutta type of time-stepping scheme is used for solving transonic flow past a transport type wing/fuselage configuration. Solutions for both Euler and Navier-Stokes equations are obtained for quantitative assessment of boundary layer interaction effects. The viscous solutions are obtained on both a medium resolution grid of approximately 270,000 points and a find grid of 460,000 points to assess the effects of grid density on the solution. Computed pressure distributions are compared with the experimental data
