This appendix volume contains the program listing and flowchart for the program described in Volume I and Volume II. The program is a numerical method that predicts the detailed pressure distribution on wing-body combinations at transonic Mach numbers less than one and integrates the pressures to obtain aircraft force and moment data. The code has been developed with the intent of providing the user with an easy to use and reliable tool. The basic inviscid prediction method is the modified transonic small disturbance theory program. In order to provide accurate surface pressure predictions on the wing, several additional features of the typical transonic flowfield have been incorporated. These consist of the viscous displacement effect, local strong viscous interaction at the shock wave foot and at the trailing edge (including an approximate treatment of local shallow separations), and finally, the interaction effect of the fuselage.

This computational aerodynamics textbook is written at the undergraduate level, based on years of teaching focused on developing the engineering skills required to become an intelligent user of aerodynamic codes. This is done by taking advantage of CA codes that are now available and doing projects to learn the basic numerical and aerodynamic concepts required. This book includes a number of unique features to make studying computational aerodynamics more enjoyable. These include: • The computer programs used in the book's projects are all open source and accessible to students and practicing engineers alike on the book's website, www.cambridge.org/aerodynamics. The site includes access to images, movies, programs, and more • The computational aerodynamics concepts are given relevance by CA Concept Boxes integrated into the chapters to provide realistic asides to the concepts • Readers can see fluids in motion with the Flow Visualization Boxes carefully integrated into the text.
