Abstract
The purpose of this project is to simulate the evolution of spatially amplified disturbances in realistical airfoil flows using a standard Navier-Stokes airfoil code as in contrast to a special transition simulation method. As a first step a blunt-nose flat plate flow is considered. In this paper we investigate the feasibility of such simulations using a low-order CFD algorithm. Only a basic stationary flow and its linear-stability theory characteristics have been computed during the workshop.
