Streamwise Computation of a Circular-to-Rectangular Transition Duct PotentialFlow Field

摘要

Computations of potential flow through a circular-to-rectangular transition ductare presented. Computations are based on a new approach that uses two stream functions to compute three-dimensional flows. This approach leads to a simple and fast algorithm to compute three-dimensional flows through complex geometries. The results of the computations are compared with the available experimental data.
