文摘A trigonometric series expansion method and two similar modified methods for the Orr-Sommerfeld equation are presented. These methods use the trigonometric series expansion with an auxiliary function added to the highest order derivative of the unknown function and generate the lower order derivatives through successive integra- tions. The proposed methods are easy to implement because of the simplicity of the chosen basis functions. By solving the plane Poiseuille flow (PPF), plane Couette flow (PCF), and Blasius boundary layer flow with several homogeneous boundary conditions, it is shown that these methods yield results with the same accuracy as that given by the conventional Chebyshev collocation method but with better robustness, and that ob- tained by the finite difference method but with fewer modal number.
