Abstract

SummaryIn recent papers Squire has presented results for the shock shape and pressure distribution on the lower surface of unyawed, lifing, conical bodies with sharp leading edges. The work, a development of Messiter’s first-order correction to Newtonian theory, was successfully applied to wings of diamond and caret section. This paper shows how the method may be used to include the effects of yaw. Results are presented here for the flat wing and some biconvex sections. Comparisons are made with experiment for both the flat and biconvex wings and agreement is shown to be good.
