Abstract: A method for constructing orthogonal curvilinear computational grids based on an adapted system of cylindrical coordinates is proposed. The paper is devoted to constructing such grids for subsonic and supersonic parts of a Laval nozzle. Curvilinear computational grids constructed by the proposed method for various shapes of a Laval nozzle are presented.

Keywords: orthogonal curvilinear coordinate system, adapted cylindrical coordinates, computational grids, Laval nozzle.
