User's manual for XTRAN2L (version 1.2): A program for solving the general-frequency unsteady transonic small-disturbance equation

The development, use and operation of the XTRAN2L program that solves the two dimensional unsteady transonic small disturbance potential equation are described. The XTRAN2L program is used to calculate steady and unsteady transonic flow fields about airfoils and is capable of performing self contained transonic flutter calculations. Operation of the XTRAN2L code is described, and tables defining all input variables, including default values, are presented. Sample cases that use various program options are shown to illustrate operation of XTRAN2L. Computer listings containing input and selected output are included as an aid to the user.
