Summary
In this chapter,issues related to the calculation of viscous flows are addressed. The flows of interest in aeronautical science are generally characterized by high Reynolds numbers, of the order of 5–100 million in the case of flows over aircraft wings, and accordingly the emphasis here will be on such a range.
