Abstract

The effect of reducing the extent of the computational domain for transonic lifting flow over an aerofoil in an unbounded domain is examined. A correction to the far field boundary conditions is developed based on a far field expansion of the linearized small-disturbance equation. Improved accuracy is demonstrated on smaller computational domains.
