The numerical schemes employed by CATAPULT consist of advanced numerical methods developed by the research group at the Lawrence Berkley National Laboratory.
Compressible flow fields are modeled using second-order accurate split Godunov methodology developed by Collela and Glaz, LBNL.
For the numerical simulation of incompressible multiphase flows, CATAPULT utilizes second-order accurate projection method technology developed by Bell et.
Particulate phases for both the compressible and incompressible modules of CATAPULT are modeled as a nonequilibrium continuum.

This fact is particularly tru, :: SUMMARY OF SECTION DATA ON TRAILING-EDGE HIGH-LIFT DEVICES 11 /._ for each of the airfoils for which data are shown.
A com- parison of the data for smooth and rough airfoils in figure 19 shows that the decrease in maximum lift coefficients of air- --____ -- foils with split flaps increases as the Reynolds number is in- f-- creased and that tile effect of roughness on the maximum lift _ coefficients of NACA 230-series sections is greater than that _ _-- _ __--------5 on NACA 6-series sections but not enough to make the actual 1 values of the maximum lift coefficients lower.
DRAG Envelope drag polars for an NACA 23012 airfoil equipped t/c with various sizes of split flaps are shown in figure 20.
The preceding rernarks can be expected to apply only to airfoils with small trail--edge angles such ".
Data of reference 4 show that the li&-ourve slopes for the .
NACA 63-210 airfoil are practically identical with tho99 for the I-IACA 64-210 airfoil.
Unpublished data indicate that camber has very little effect on the liftrcurve slopes of the thin NACA 6-seriee airfoils .
