- Summary:
- A generalization of the Tsien method of contraction cone design is described. The design velocity distribution is expressed in such a form that the required high order derivatives can be obtained by recursion rather than by numerical or analytic differentiation. The method is applicable to the design of diffusers and converging-diverging ducts as well as contraction cones. The computer program is described and a FORTRAN listing of the program is provided.
