Problem Definition:
- Transition prediction for improving design of wind turbine airfoils.- Demand a method not expensive in terms of computing time.- Database approach easy to integrate in any numerical code.
Velocity profiles with rotational effects ---> Stability analysis
Implementation on EllipSys3D code <--- Amplification Factor

Boundary layer Velocity profiles Database:
Roc/rm
- The velocity profiles have been mapped and stored.
- Unique relation exist if the dimensionless pressure gradients m and n, withthe Rossby number are specified. (True for a rotating flat plate). In a similar way another
parameters can be selected: dimensionless wall shear stress in both directions and the Rossby number of the shape factors.
- Relations among the parameters have been obtained.

Orr-Sommerfeld equation:
-- Based on parallel flow assumption.-- Linear stability is used in the derivation the equation.
- Disturbance shape equation:
- Spatial vs temporal approach.

What about the cross flow, how to handle the problem ?
Proposed approach to solve for the Cross flow Database:
-- One very important conclusion from the analysis of the velocity profiles is that the tangential flow is not affected by the cross flow velocity profile. Therefore is possible to consider the stability of the two velocity profiles independly.
- Is important to notice that the method used to solve the eigenvalue problem isvery close related to method used to define the transition criteria.
- From Annu. Rev. Fluid. Mech. 1996. 28, H Reed, W.S. Saric and D. Arnal, for the case ofsubsonics flows, recommend to separate or uncouple the problem of the cross flow instability from the TS instability, since the mechanism are different.

The approach requires the following:
- Reformulation of the Orr-Sommerfeld equation and the parameters in the stability diagrams, (Reynolds number) and disturbance shape and boundary conditions.
- Two stability modes are considered: Traveling Cross flow waves and stationary crossflow instability.
- Alternative formulation of the problem for instance the envelope method, to verify the solution. A kind of Orr-Sommerfeld equation including rotational effects have been derived. (Still need to check the boundary conditions for solution)
