This paper is concerned with developing a method of predicting the unsteady pressure distribution on missiles at transonic and supersonic speeds. The concepts developed in this work are extensions of an earlier analysis for steady flow. The approach is to make as much use of the existing technology as possible. The final goal is to develop a computer code capable of predicting the unsteady transonic flow about missiles for use in aeroelastic calculations or during maneuver. The present paper is an account of the second phase of the work, namely the preliminary development of an unsteady flow variant of the method. Keywords: Mathematical prediction; Reprints. (edc)
