Lifting aerofoils with supercritical shock-free flow

Nieuwland's hodograph theory for Ufting quasi-elliptical aerofoils has been applied to compute a number of profiles with supercritical shockfree flow at the design condition. These profiles appear to have nose camber only. The pressure distribution at the design condition is of the peaky type. The minimum radius of curvature at the nose is of...
