Abstract
An inviscid flow solver used in conjunction with a viscous flow solver through a patching or matching approach [1] has proved to be a powerful technique for computing viscous-inviscid interacting flow, as pointed out in the reviews of Lock [2], Melnik [3], and Le Balleur [4]. This computational technique can be extended to separated flow if an inverse boundary-layer calculation method (where the pressure distribution is obtained as part of the solution) is used in place of a direct boundary-layer calculation method (where the pressure distribution is specified). A review of computational methods capable of handling separated flow is given by Le Balleur [4].
