Overview

The effect that artificial dissipation has on numerical solutions of the transonic Full Potential Equation (FPE) are investigated by comparing the artificially dissipative FPE to a Physically Dissipative Potential (PDP) equation. Analytic expressions were derived from the variables C and M sub c that are used in the artificial density formulation. It was shown that these new values generate artificial dissipation which is equivalent to the physical dissipation existing in the PDP equation. The new expression for the variables C and M sub c can easily be incorporated into the existing full potential codes which are based either on the artificial density or on the artificial viscosity formulation. A comparison of Physically Dissipative Potential (PDP), Artificial Density or Viscosity (ADV), Artificial Mass Flux (AMF), and ADV with variable C and M sub c formulation (MCC) is also presented.
