Three-dimensional viscous-flow computations using a directionally hybrid implicit-explicit procedureA new, directionally dependent, hybrid numerical algorithm for solving the unsteady, three-dimensional Navier-Stokes equations has been developed and used to compute the viscous supersonic flow over complex configurations, which may generate local regions of embedded subsonic or streamwise separated flows or both. The new hybrid implicit-explicit algorithm is derived from the more general implicit Beam-Warming algorithm and is particularly suitable for viscous computations in which the grid spacing in the direction outward from the body is considerably smaller than the spacing in the other two directions. Numerical results obtained from both the hybrid and implicit schemes are presented and compared on the basis of numerical stability, convergence history, and computer and core memory requirements.
