Abstract

An in-house-developed, three dimensional structured Navier-Stokes solver (xFLOWg) is used in the transonic wing computations. Wing alone geometries are taken from Drag Prediction Workshop III (DPW3) [1], which was held on June 3-4, 2006, in San Francisco, CA. Although experimental results are not available for the test cases of DPW3, drag and lift comparison with the well-known CFD codes appears to be a satisfactory validation study.
