Computational aerodynamics has evolved to the point where it has become a practical design tool comparable to wind tunnel testing and has played an important role in actual aircraft design stages. The Navier-Stokes code, however, is still restricted to two-dimensional applications, which have been repeatedly validated. The three-dimensional application, which is a real challenge for the Navier-Stokes code, is discussed. If this three-dimensional application could be perfected, it would be a big step toward the final target of complete aircraft analysis by numerical simulation.
