Flow past a Bent Flat Plate with an Unsymmetric Dead Air at Mach Number 1

Abstract

The ideal case of the flow past a bent flat plate with an unsymmoetric dead air region at Mach number 1, in which a streamline comes tangentially to the plate at its leading edge, is discussed by means of the simple procedure of Imai’s WKB method. Numerical results are given for several values of the form parameter.
