Quick Graphical Methods in Compressible Flow Problems: A Chart for the Solution of a Number of Common High‐Speed Flow Problems

Abstract

RECENT developments in the design of supersonic aeroplanes and particularly the ducting problems connected with the installation of turbo‐jet and rocket engines have brought about a considerable increase in the complexity of calculations required for prediction of performance. This is especially true when several alternative solutions are considered and the final choice depends on the relative performance. Any graphical methods which can reduce this calculations work are therefore of considerable practical value.
