Entropy and vorticity corrections for transonic flows

Different models for inviscid transonic flows are examined. The common assumptions that the flow is isentropic and irrotational are critically evaluated. Entropy and vorticity correction procedures for potential and stream function formlations are presented together with the details of the treatment of shocks and wakes, and drag and lift calculations. The nonuniqueness problem is studied using different artificial viscosity forms. Numerical results are compared to Euler solutions.
