Summary

The work deals with the numerical solution of the system of Euler equations for the case of 2D steady transonic flows in a channel or through a cascade and 3D steady transonic flows in a channel.

The 2D weak solution of the problem is computed by the conservative finite volume formulation of the explicit MacCormack difference scheme with a nonlinear artificial dissipative term of second order and a linear dissipative term of fourth order. The steady solution is obtained by a time dependent method by integrating t to infinity and using appropriate steady boundary and periodical conditions.

The explicit MacCormack difference scheme in conservation form is used for computing the numerical solution of 3D transonic flows in a channel.

The presented 2D numerical results are compared with numerical results of Ron-Ho-Ni in the case of channel flows for M < 1 and with interferometric measurements of the Institute of Thermomechanics of Czechoslovak Academy of Sciences in the case of transonic flows through 8% DCA cascade for upstream Machnumbers M < 1 as well as M > 1.

The presented 3D numerical results of transonic flows in a channel are compared to numerical results computed by 1D theory and 2D theory.
