SUPERSONIC FLOW ROUND POINTED BODIES OF REVOLUTION

J. B. BRODERICK

( Department of Mathematics, The University Manchester )

A method is developed for solving approximately the complete equation for isentropic axisymmetrical flow of a gas past bodies of revolution. The potential is expanded in powers of t and log t (t being the thickness ratio of the body), and the coefficients in this series are then expanded in powers of r and log r near the body, sufficient terms only being found to give the potential correct to order t4 on the body. Arbitrary constants are found by the boundary conditions. From the result the pressure and drag coefficients are found correct to order t4
