Three-Dimensional Laminar Boundary Layer over Body of Revolution at Incidence. Part IX. Difference Method and Documentation of Program 'BLIND3'.

摘要

The report documents the program 'BLIND3' and its associated difference methods. BLIND3 stands for Boundary Layer in 3 Dimensions. This program is for calculating genuine three-dimensional, incompressible, laminar boundary layer over a blunt-body at incidence. The whole calculation consists of the following five parts: inviscid calculations from known inviscid solution, stagnation-point boundary layer, symmetry-plane boundary layer, nose region boundary layer, and main body boundary layer. This program has been written in FORTRAN 5 language, and used for a UNIVAC 1108 computer in batch mode and under Exec. 8 system. It has been employed to obtain complete boundary layer solutions for a prolate spheroid at low and high incidences.
