ABSTRACT
Incompressible potential flow problems are governed by Laplace¡¦s equation. In solving linear, inviscid, irrotational flow about a body moving at subsonic or supersonic speeds, panel methods can be used. Panel methods are numerical schemes for the solution of the problem. The tools at the panel-method user's disposal are the representation of nearly arbitrary geometry using surface panels of source-doublet-vorticity distributions, and extremely versatile boundary condition capabilities that can frequently be used for creative modeling. Panel-method capabilities and limitations, basic concepts common to all panel-method codes and different choices that were made in the......
