A method is developed for theoretically predicting the loading on pylon-mounted stores in subsonic compressible flow. Linear theory is used, without two-dimensional or slender body assumptions, to predict the flow field produced by the aircraft wing, nose, inlet, and pylons. The interference loading is integrated over the store length by considering the local crossflow, its axial and radial derivatives, and buoyancy. Store moment calculations under an F-4 aircraft at Mach 8 are compared to wind tunnel data. The method is computerized, and program user information is included. (Author)
