Extract

In treating the compressible subsonic flow by the Prandtl-Glauert method as extended by Göthert, the velocity increment v in the direction of the main stream is found to be 1/β2 times the corresponding velocity increment va on the analogous body in incompressible flow; the analogous body being obtained by reducing the lateral dimensions of the real body in the ratio β:1.
