Extract

A slender ducted body of arbitrary cross section is studied. This possesses an annular, side or “scoop” type of intake at some streamwise station. The parts of the body forward of and behind the intake are both permitted to have discontinuities of longitudinal profile slope at streamwise stations widely separated both from each other and from the intake. The external flow is taken to be entirely supersonic and it is assumed that the intake lip is sharp and that there is no “spill over” due to choking of the internal flow, which must be supersonic for a short distance inside the duct.
