Unsteady boundary conditions

I'm modelling a NACA 0020 aerofoil under unsteady flow conditions, using a finite volume flow solver. My question is, if I'm using an unsteady inflow boundary condition upstream of the foil what should the outflow boundary condition be set as. Is a constant pressure outflow boundary condition valid, if placed far enough downstream?

It depends on Mach number. If the problem is subsonic then constatnt pressure at outflow boundary will be Ok. If M> 1 then you should set smooth condition d/dn = 0.

Search for Kevin Thompsons paper called "Unsteady boundary Conditions for Hyperbolic systems" in J. Comp. Physics
