Summary
Improvements have been made to a streamwise upwind algorithm so that it can be used for calculating flows with vortices. A calculation is shown of flow over a delta wing at an angle of attack. The laminar, thin-layer, Navier-Stokes equations are used for the calculation. The results are compared with another upwind method, a central-differencing method, and experimental data. The present method shows improvements in accuracy and convergence properties.
