The problem of supersonic flow over an inclined flat-plate delta wing with supersonic edges is solved to second order in incidence. This solution for surface pressure is uniform and fully analytic. The approach utilizes a reverse-flow integral method previously developed for second-order problems. This method is augmented by a number of techniques appropriate to its framework. The simplification over standard techniques achieved by using these reverse-flow methods is quite substan¬tial and makes the problem tractible.nReverse-flow procedures give a volume-surface integral relation that connects the second-order forward flow over the body of interest with the linearized reverse-flow over a related body. A singular integral equation is generated from the inte¬gral relation by introducing the edge sweep of the reverses-flow wing as a free parameter. An inversion is available which gives the second-order solution on the surface of the wing. The solution is then made uniformly valid using techniques previous¬ly developed.
