The Hypersonic Source Flow Past Wedges and Cones
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 07 June 2016
Summary
To study the effects of flow non-uniformities on the hypersonic flow past test bodies, perturbation analysis is applied to the hypersonic source flow past wedges and cones. In both cases it is shown that the effects of the source flow on the shock shape and velocity are small, while effects on the pressure and density are large. Curves are presented for various values of the Mach number from which these effects can be estimated.
