  Viscous-Inviscid Interaction
Development of a coupling algorithm is a very difficult task, that is somewhat dissociated from the domain of validity of the equations that describe the viscous flow.
This scheme, that is probably the most robust viscous-inviscid formulation for airfoil flows, presents difficulties in three dimensions, due to the enormous size of the jacobian matrix that has to be inverted.
This was the first attempt to solve time-consistent flows, with both viscous and inviscid solvers implicit in time, and the coupling algorithm performed by a relaxation at each time-step.

The standard equations of inviscid flow are the Euler equations.
Another often used model, especially in computational fluid dynamics, is to use the Euler equations far from the body and the boundary layer equations close to the body.
If a problem is incompressible, irrotational, inviscid, and steady, it can be solved using potential flow, governed by Laplace's equation.

 Recent Papers
It is shown that the flow in a small vicinity of the separation point is governed, as usual, by strong interaction between the boundary layer and inviscid part of the flow.
Outside the interaction region the Karman-Guderley equation describing transonic inviscid flow admits a self-similar solution with the pressure on the body surface being proportional to the cubic root of the distance from the separation point.
Interaction between the boundary layer on a smooth body surface and the outer inviscid compressible flow in the vicinity of a sonic point is considered.

 Verification Cases
This verification case involves the computation of the inviscid, supersonic (Mach 2.5) flowfield past a wedge with a half-angle of 15 degrees.
The results are compared with analytic, perfect gas results, which indicates a Mach number of 1.873, a pressure ratio across the shock of 2.468, a temperature jump of 1.322, and a shock angle of 36.944 degrees.
This verification case involves unsteady, inviscid flow with a standing shock moving in a duct.

The mass equation (Iv3) is, of course, unchanged with the neglect of viscosities.
This latter observation is the true significance of the boundary layer, i.e., its existence permits the fluid mechanist to employ the simplification of the inviscid approximation.
Although the no-slip and heat flux conditions are ignored in the inviscid approximation, both the kinematic and the dynamic boundary conditions must be applied in the usual way.

 IRROTATIONAL FLOW OF AN INVISCID FLUID   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
This lecture is devoted to the study of irrotational plane flows of an inviscid fluid.
In the absence of shear stresses, forces exerted on a body - the wing in this case - by an inviscid fluid are always normal to the surface and due to the pressure.
This apparent paradox can only be solved by dropping the hypothesis of irrotational (and inviscid) flow in a region close to the body (boundary layer) where viscosity plays a fundamental role and the flow is rotational and viscous.

In everyday life, shock waves are commonly experienced as the crash of thunder, the crack of a whip, or the sound of a gunshot or firecracker.
In a Navier-Stokes fluid, shock waves are usually associated with inviscid flows.
Conditions (47)-(48) express conservation of linear momentum through the shock and are the counterparts of (32) or, because the inviscid approximation has been applied here, (Iv4).

 Method of Characteristics
Inviscid Burgers' equation is not of the form of the linear first order PDE (1), as it is nonlinear, so our earlier analysis do not apply directly.
In the applet, observe in the shock problems for inviscid Burgers' equation how the plotted weak solutions appear to be applying this equal area rule to the multivalued solutions produced by the method of characteristics.
For the inviscid Burgers' problem with the sine wave, N-wave, and single hump initial data, the applet uses a numerical method to approximate the exact entropy satisfying weak solution.

Of particular interest is the dependence of the critical deflection angle (when a well attached flow turns into a separated flow) on the Karman-Guderley parameter.
In accordance with the procedure adopted, the analysis of the flow starts with the solution of the K\'arm\'an-Guderley equation describing the inviscid part of the flow near the corner point.
The analysis of the inviscid transonic flow has been performed based on hodograph method and new far field boundary conditions has been obtained corresponding to the present flow topology.

To quantitatively assess the merits of this new approach, a wide range of inviscid and viscous flow problems are simulated spanning the Mach number range from incompressible to supersonic flows with special emphasis on transonic flows.
Leonhard Euler (1707-1783): He developed the concept of the material derivative and in turn was able to derive the governing equations for inviscid fluid motion.
Jean le Rond D'Alembert (1717-1783): Well known for D'Alembert's paradox which states that there is no drag exerted on a body immersed in an inviscid free stream, this led to wide criticism of the invsicd theory and in turn led to the rise of experimental fluid mechanics.

 Lift-Dependent Drag Items
The inviscid (vortex) drag includes a zero-lift term due to twist, and lift-dependent parts that depend on the twist and planform.
The remaining portion of the "induced" drag, the so-called viscous part, is chiefly due to the increase of skin friction and pressure drag with changes in angle of attack.
Apart from this factor, the expression for inviscid inviscid drag of the wing alone shows how planform and twist affect the drag.

Their goal was to determine the condition for which a perturbation resulting from an adverse gradient of angular momentum is unstable.
Here we first consider Rayleigh's inviscid flow theory, and then perform a perturbation analysis for the thin-gap limit of the viscous Couette flow examined by Taylor.
He found that when the two cylinders rotate in the same direction, Rayleigh's criterion for inviscid flow still holds, with a small added region of stability.
