Abstract

Certain shapes of high speed aircraft, such as caret wings, make use of twodimensional flow fields and in principle they can be propelled by purely external heat addition without any ducted flow. Suitable under-surfaces can be designed by an exact numerical method [1]. Various examples of the method are given, and comparisons are made of propulsive efficiency, temperature distribution and other variables.
