    Abstract

    A new method is presented for the calculation of the wake of a finite flat plate. The method is based upon the recent investigations of the boundary layer near the trailing edge, which led to the triple-deck structure. This multi-layered structure has now been extended to the "classical" wake, which in fact is the continuation of the lowest two layers of the triple-deck. With this new numerical formulation an accuracy of 10-3% can easily be achieved.
