Abstract
Prof. Antony Jameson (N_U) and Prof. Dave Caughey (Cornell) have developed this computer program for analFzing inviscid, isentropic, transonic flow past 3-D sweptwing configurations. This work was done at the Courant Institute of Mathematical Sciences, New York University, under NASA Grants NGR-33-016-167 and NGR-q3-016-201. Some basic aspects of the program are: The free-stream Mach number is restricted only by the isentropic assumption. Weak shock waves are automatically located where ever they occur in the flow. The finite-difference form of the full equation for the velocity potential is solved by the method of relaxation, after the flow exterior to the airfoil is mapped to the upper half plane. The mapping procedure allows exact satisfaction of the boundary conditions and use of supersonic free stream velocities. The finite difference operator is "locally rotated" in supersonic flow regions so as

to properly account for the domain of dependence. The relaxation algorithm has been stabilized using criteria from a time-like analogy. The brief description contained in this document should enable one to use the program until a formal user's manual is available.

SUMMARY
Prof. Antony Jameson (NYU) and Prof. Dave Caughey (Cornell) have developed this computer program for analyzing inviscid, isertropic, transonic flow past 3-D swept-wing configurations. This work was done at the Courant Institute of Mathematical Sciences, New York University, under NASA Grants NGR-33-016-167 and NGR-33-016-201. Some basic aspects of the progrmn are: The free-stream Mach number is restricted only by the isentropic assumption. Weak shock waves are automatically located where ever they occur in the flow. The finite-difference form o_ the full equation for the velocity potential is solved by the method of relaxation, after the flow exterior to the airfoil is mapped to the upper half plane. The mapping procedure allows exact satisfaction o_ the boundary conditions and use of supersonic free stream velocities. The finite _ifference operator is "locally rotated" in supersonic flow regions so as to properly account for the domain of dependence. The relaxation algorithm has been stabilized using criteria from a time-like analogy. The brief description contained in this document should enable one to use the program until a formal user's manual is available.
