Abstract The general theory of characteristics is reviewed for hyperbolic
partial differential equations of n independent variables. The
application of the theory of characteristics is made to unsteady, two-dimensional, rotational, inviscid flows; unsteady, two-dimensional,
irrotational, inviscid flows; and unsteady, axial symmetric, inviscid
flows. The characteristic surfaces and the compatibility relations
are found. Moreover, calculating schemes are set up for numerical
solutions for the conditions at a general point, a boundary point, and
a constant pressure point. The calculations for the particle paths
are also developed.
