The methods used in the application of the wire-mesh plotting device to find the flow pattern about a cascade of airfoils in incompressible inviscid flow and some mathematical checks that increase the accuracy of this application are described. Results for two typical turbine-blade cascades are shown to compare well with experimental data. A method of utilizing the wire mesh to design turbine blades with a prescried pressure distribution in incompressible flow is presented.
