Abstract

The different types of envelope flow model are first outlined. The basic theory and assumptions for steady envelope models are then described. Attention is then focused on the explicit method of solution used for the initial stage of design. Brief mention is made of the use of envelope models for more general calculations, using the more common implicit method of solution. Examples are given of the sort of calculations that can be done with such models. The theory of unsteady models and possible applications to design are described. The difficulties associated with envelope flow models are outlined.
