* CHAPTER 11 SUBSONIC COMPRESSIBLE FLOW OVER AIRFOILS: LINEAR THEORY 11.4 PRANDTL-GLAUERT COMPRESSIBILITY CORRECTION The methods that approximately take into account of the effects of compressibility by correct the incompressible flow results is called compressible corrections. We will derive the most widely known correction of Prandtl-Glauert compressibility correction in this section. Since the Prandtl-Glauert method is based on the linearized perturbation velocity potential equation: So it has restrictions: thin airfoil at small angle of attack; purely subsonic; give inappropriate results at Boundary Condition : In (x,y) space: In transformed space: So This Equation implies that the shape of the airfoil in the transformed space is the same as the physical space. Hence, the above tranforma- tion relates the compressible flow over an airfoil in (x,y) space to the in space over the same airfoil.

What is the definition of Critical Mach Number? The critical Mach number is that free stream Mach number at which sonic flow is first achieved on the airfoil surface.
