ABSTRACT |
ESDU 70008, which is one of a series of four, presents data for the shock angle of a sharp-nosed right-circular cone at zero incidence in a uniform, inviscid, supersonic airflow. The data, given in carpet form, are for upstream Mach numbers increasing from the shock detachment value to a value of 4 for cones with semi-vertex angles from zero to 50 degrees and were obtained from an exact solution of the conical flow equations. |
