| Description | Milestones in the development of computational aerodynamics are reviewed together with past, present, and future computer performance (speed and memory) trends. Factors influencing computer performance requirements for both steady and unsteady flow simulations are identified. Estimates of computer speed and memory that are required to calculate both inviscid and viscous, steady and unsteady flows about airfoils, wings, and simple wing body configurations are presented and compared to computer performance which is either currently available, or is expected to be available before the end of this decade. Finally, estimates of the amounts of computer time that are required to determine flutter boundaries of airfoils and wings at transonic Mach numbers are presented and discussed. |
