A simplified model is used to describe the interaction between a propeller slipstream and a wing in the transonic regime. The undisturbed slipstream boundary is assumed to coincide with an infinite circular cylinder. The undisturbed slipstream velocity is rotational and is a function of the radius only. In general, the velocity perturbation caused by introducing a wing into the slipstream is also rotational. By making small disturbance assumptions, however, the perturbation velocity becomes nearly potential, and an approximation for the flow is obtained by solving a potential equation.
