Abstract

A second-order scheme designed to compute 3-D viscous flows is presented : it is based on a Lax-Wendroff solver modified by a characteristic time-step technique. The scheme is driven to steady-state by various implicit treatments, the pros and cons of which are discussed in terms of cost and memory requirement. The efficiency and accuracy of the proposed methods are assessed by computing transonic flows over wings.

This work has been partially supported by DGA (French Ministry of Defense) under Contract DRET 95112. The mesh for the ONERA-M6 wing was provided by ONERA.
