ABSTRACT:
An inlet duct of generally rectangular configuration for supersonic aircraft in which a normal shock is produced in close proximity to the forward lip of the lower duct wall, and in which variable area sideplate openings are provided just upstream of the normal shock to achieve boundary layer control for the normal shock-boundary layer interaction during on-design operation and increasing flow area for spillage as the normal shock is moved forward during off-design operation.
