The exact solutions to the equations of gas dynamics are given with respect to the axis of slender lifting bodies in a stratified atmosphere. The boundary condition is satisfied by using slender-body theory. The solution predicts the magnitude of the pressure rise of the sonic boom and estimates the nonlinear effects in the vicinity of the cutoff point.
For a lifting body of revolution, the exact solutions to the gas dynamical equation are given for the flow field in a stratified atmosphere. The boundary condition is satisfied by using the (linearized) slender-body theory. The solution allows one to make a prediction of the magnitude and the location of the sonic boom in a stratified atmosphere as well as to handle cutoff effects.
