Several reports have obtained numerical solutions for supersonic flow past blunt nosed body, and in every case the method adopted can be described as an inverse marching process. This method was applied to a wedge shaped body, thus requiring an elliptical type equation to be solved. To facilitate the solution process, the pressure and density terms are eliminated from the equation so that it is composed solely of velocity terms. An initial application is discussed which constructs the solution staring from shock waves, the Taylar maccoll solution, with satisfactory results being obtained.
