Written to teach students the nature of transonic flow and its
mathematical foundation, this book offers a much-needed
introduction to transonic aerodynamics. The authors present a
quantitative and qualitative assessment of subsonic, supersonic and
transonic flow around bodies in two and three dimensions. The book
reviews the governing equations and explores their applications and
limitations as employed in modeling and computational fluid
dynamics. Some concepts, such as shock and expansion theory, are
examined from a numerical perspective. Others, including
shock-boundary-layer interaction, are discussed from a qualitative
point of view. The book includes 60 examples and more than 200
practice problems. The authors also offer analytical methods such
as Method of Characteristics (MOC) that allow readers to practice
with the subject matter. The result is a wealth of insight into
transonic flow phenomena and their impact on aircraft design,
including compressibility effects, shock and expansion waves,
shock-boundary-layer interaction and aeroelasticity.
