Summary
Extension of the panel method formulation are reviewed for modeling the effects of viscous, separated and vortex flows. Such extensions are necessary for the practical treatment of the flow about general configurations. Further developments based on an unsteady approach and also a local zonal treatment of nonlinear effects are briefly discussed. These developments should make the panel method even more attractive in the future.
