    Abstract An approach based on Lighthill's transpiration velocity is explored and proposed for a new design criterion for airfoils in unsteady and viscous flows. This criterion confines its methodologies to the close proximity of the laminar and turbulent boundary layer and it shows good efficiency in predicting and calculating the wake evolution regions in a wide range of operating unsteady parameters. Also, the criterion is capable of predicting low Mach number, attached flow-fields as accurately as the full Navier-Stokes solutions when the massive flow separation is avoided. The agreement of the present results with those empirically More >
