dc.description.abstract	The supersonic flow over bodies for which the surface boundary condition may be satisfied on a circular cylinder is considered. The method is based on the linearised small-perturbation theory of supersonic flow. The disturbance velocity potential is obtained as a Fourier series, each term of which contains a certain basic function and the first eleven of these functions are evaluated. The pressure distribution and wave drag have been calculated for some bodies consisting of circular cylinders surmounted by canopies. An extension of the method to solve certain wing-body interference problems is also described.	en_US
