Proceedings ArticleDOI
Development of a Common Research Model for Applied CFD Validation Studies
TL;DR: In this paper, a transonic supercritical wing design is developed with aerodynamic characteristics that are well behaved and of high performance for configurations with and without the nacelle/pylon group.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Summary of the Fourth AIAA CFD Drag Prediction Workshop
John C. Vassberg,Edward N. Tinoco,Mori Mani,Ben Rider,Tom Zickuhr,David W. Levy,Olaf Brodersen,Bernhard Eisfeld,Simone Crippa,Richard A. Wahls,Joseph H. Morrison,Dimitri J. Mavriplis,Mitcuhiro Murayama +12 more
TL;DR: The workshop is focused on the prediction of both absolute and differential drag levels for wing-body and wing-alone configuarations that are representative of transonic transport aircraft.
