Fluid Mechanics 1986: Annual Report of Fluid Mechanics Division

Abstract

This report, presents an overview of the research and development activities of the Fluid Mechanics division during 1986. The division is mainly concerned with Investigations of complex flow fields associated with aerospace vehicles. The repamp; highlights progress in several areas of computational and experimental' fluid mechanics, including vortex dominated flows, flow visualisation, airfoil design codes, and Laser based flow measurements. Some of the work was sponsored by external agencies like ARDB and NSTL.
