An analysis is made of the effect, of a longitudinal gravity field on two-dimensional supercavitating flow past wedges. Under the assump¬tion that the flow is "both irrotational and incompressible, a nonlinear theory is developed for steady flow. A closed, finite cavity model is used.nBy utilizing the methods of cohformal mapping in combination with the Schwarz reflection principle, the mathematical problem is reduced to a three-parameter, nonlinear, integral equation with one constraint.
