Prediction of aerodynamic performance of airfoils in low Reynolds number flows

Presents a viscous/inviscid interaction procedure for the solution of incompressible flowfields with large laminar separated regions. The method extends previous work on prediction of aerofoil performance up to stall conditions. Shows how the existence of laminar separation bubbles is treated, and indicates how transition may be considered. Compares calculated results using this approach (MULTIM code) with experimental data for two common aerofoils at low Reynolds number. (from authors' abstract
