Linearized Supersonic Axially Symmetric Flow about Open-nosed Bodies Obtained by Use of Stream Function


Book Description

First-order relations were obtained for attenuation of shock and flow deflection outward along the shock. These relations probably conform closely to physical fact, provided the entrance slope is small. These relations contain an error, but become exact as the radial coordinate approaches inifinity. The error is thus probably of the second order over the entire shock front.
