Abstract

The small-perturbation theory for steady, inviscid, non-equilibrium flow is extended to include the transonic speed range. The resulting transonic small-perturbation equation for the velocity potential is solved for flow inside a wavy cylinder. It is shown that this solution gives a representation of transition through sonic speed at the narrowest sections of the cylinder. This extension of the theory is applied to non-equilibrium nozzle flow.
