Noniterative cross-flow integration for the pressure-split analysis of subsonic mixing-layer problems

In utilizing pressure-split methodology for the two-dimensional analysis of curved wall jets and the subsonic regions of underexpanded free jets, Dash et al (1984) employed the cross flow procedure of Bradshaw et al (1979, 1984). In assessing this procedure, it was noted that the iterative steps required between the continuity and cross flow momentum equation solutions could be eliminated by combining these equations into a unified equation for the cross flow velocity, yielding a significant reduction in computer time and eliminating possible convergence problems which occur in iterative approaches. Attention is presently given to the application of this noniterative procedure to a two-dimensional curved wall jet problem.
