Notes:
The bbundary integral formulation and boundary element method are extended to include lifting flow problems. This involves inclusion of a branch cut in the flow field and imposition of a Kutta condition to determine the circulation, Γ Additional boundary integral contributions arise from the cut surface. Techniques for calculating Γ are developed and we treat, in particular, a superposition procedure which permits very efficient computation. Numerical results are presented for an NACA0012 aerofoil at several angles of attack.
