The laminar boundary layer on a circular cone at angle of attack to a supersonic stream is discussed. A perturbation analysis was made to show the influence of a small angle of attack on such boundary layer quantities as skin friction, boundary-layer thickness, viscous lift, drag, and pitching moment.

The results of the calculation of supersonic flow of helium about right circular cones at zero angle of attack are presented in tabular form. The calculations were performed using the Taylor-Maccoll theory. Numerical integrations were performed using a Runge-Kutta method for second-order differential equations. Results were obtained for cone angles from 2.5 to 30 degrees in regular increments of 2.5 degrees. In all calculations the desired free-stream Mach number was obtained to five or more significant figures.
