Aerodynamic Design and Analysis System for Supersonic Aircraft. Part 1—General Description and Theoretical Development

W. D. Middleton, J. L. Lundry

Abstract

An integrated system of computer programs has been developed for the design and analysis of supersonic configurations. The system uses linearized theory methods for the calculation of surface pressures and supersonic area rule concepts in combination with linearized theory for calculation of aerodynamic force coefficients. Interactive graphics are optional at the user's request. This part presents a general description of the system and describes the theoretical methods used.
