Abstract

The waveriders are considered, which are `designed on the basis of the flows behind the planar shocks whose compression surface is described with the aid of power functions and polynomials. The possibilities are analysed for such a specification of the surfaces, and the effect of the contour parameters is studied, which determine the cross section shape, on the lift-to-drag ratio and the integral heat fluxes for a given body temperature. The results of a comparison of the optimal (with respect to the lift-to-drag ratio) configurations of waveriders for different laws of the description of surfaces are presented.
