Abstract

We investigate the flow past a sphere of a parallel supersonic stream which is nonuniform in magnitude; such a flow can be considered as two co-axial streams of an ideal gas. The problem is solved numerically by the method of establishment [1]. Supersonic flow of nonuniform magnitude and direction past blunt bodies and a plane wall was investigated in [2–5],
