On the numerical simulation of spatial disturbances in blunt-nose flat plate flowThe feasibility of the simulation of the evolution of spatially amplified disturbances in realistic airfoil flows using a standard Navier-Stokes airfoil code is considered for a blunt-nose flat plate flow. A basic stationary flow and its linear-stability-theory characteristics are analyzed. A computational C-grid is generated using an algebraic grid-generation technique. It is concluded that further improvements to the computational grid and to the code are necessary to make the proposed simulations economical.
