Theorems concerning the reduction of drag for supersonic aircraft
In this report the problem of drag reduction or minimization for aircraft in supersonic flight is investigated within the framework of linearized theory of inviscid flow for fixed flight Mach number. General theorems applicable to complete aircraft configurations are developed. These theorems state...
