Summary

The velocity potential near the boundary of the disturbance is determined for steady supersonic flow past a simple body-and-wing model. It is found that the disturbance decays exponentially as it spreads round the body; the alteration caused by changing the radius of curvature is discussed. A universal formula for the potential away from the fuselage is also derived.
