Supersonic Flow Over Moderate Aspect Ratio Wings

6.10.1 Symmetric Problem

The fundamental solution is a supersonic source and the solution of the linearized small disturbance equation is given by [7]
where в = Jm0 – 1.

The source strength is determined by imposing the surface boundary condition. Hence

q(x, y) = U — (x, y) (6.134)

The domain of integration E is the part of the (x, y)-plane intercepted by the upstream Mach cone from the field point (x, y, z).

The pressure coefficient is, as before

It can be shown that, for an infinite wing, the surface pressure coefficient, accord­ing to the above formula, is

(x – O[5]

q(L n)_________

– в2[(y – n)2 + z2]
