description abstractAfterbody pressure distributions and wave drag were calculated using a second-order theory for a variety of conical boattails at zero angle of attack. Results are presented for Mach numbers from 1.5 to 4.5, area ratios from 0.200 to 0.800, and boattail angle from 3 degrees to 11 degrees. The results indicate that for a given boattail angle, the wave drag decreases with increasing Mach number and area ratio. The wave drag, for a constant area ratio, increases with increasing boattail angle. For a specific Mach number, area ratio, and fineness ratio, a comparison of the wave-drag coefficients for conical, tangent-parabolic, and secant-parabolic boattails showed the conical boattail to have the smallest wave drag.
