The newly developed three-dimensional design technique for turbomachinery blading based on the circulation method has been successfully extended into the transonic flow regime. The main task involves replacing the classical Fourier series expansion technique by a finite-volume method. Calculations were carried out for the design of infinitely thin cascaded blades in transonic flows, including shocked and shock-free cascaded blades.
