Abstract: An algorithm for generating curvilinear block-structured grids in axisymmetric three-dimensional domains of any connectivity is developed. The organization of the connection between the blocks is automated. The grids constructed are used to compute ideal gas steady flows past axisymmetric bodies at a nonzero angle of attack.

Key words: block-structured grid, axisymmetric body, multiply connected domain, cut, duality line, basic blocks, central singular blocks, blocks with a vertex singularity.
