Abstract
The stream function far from a profile in a two-dimensional sonic free gas jet is constructed. The stream function satisfies the Tricomi equation and is constructed on the θ, η plane by the method of singular integral equations. With unlimited increase of the jet width and by satisfying a certain condition, the stream function transforms to the self-similar solution of Frank [1, 2] and Guderley, which describes an unbounded sonic stream far from the profile. In conclusion, flow of a sonic jet issuing from a duct about a profile is considered.
