Abstract:
Some minor developments ill the technique of Thwaites' Numerical Method of Aerofoil Design I are described. In particular, the process of obtaining the camber-line ordinates from the Goldstein Approximation I velocity distribution is discussed in detail; the relevant tables of constants are given. An opportunity is taken to include a complete set of 20-point tables of Conjugation Factors needed in any actual application of the Numerical Methods. The theory underlying these tables is given by Watson in R. & M. 2716.
