Title: Method of Characteristics for Two-Dimensional Supersonic Flow—Graphical and Numerical Procedures
Abstract: Abstract The method of characteristics for two-dimensional supersonic flow is reviewed and summarized. A characteristics chart is presented for use with the graphical procedure of Prandtl and Busemann. A new numerical procedure is described which eliminates graphical operations and which allows of more accurate solutions. To facilitate the numerical method, a table of useful functions is included.
