What is it about?

An approximate method for the account of compressibility, which was successfully applied earlier for airfoil with subsonic-type edge, was used for airfoil with supersonic-type edge in the present paper.

Why is it important?

It has been shown that the value of critical Mach number decreases with increasing the relative thickness of the circular-arc airfoil.

Perspectives

Perspective of this method lies in the possibility calculating the critical Mach number for other forms of airfoils.
