Waveriders are being considered more and more as potential aerospace vehicles. However there are several questions regarding these configurations that must be answered before they can be considered viable designs. The most significant problems are related to aerothermal heating, propulsion integration, and off-design performance. Off-design performance predictions for two generic waveriders are presented. The results are from a numerical method based upon the nonlinear, inviscid Euler equations. Comparisons to experimental data are also shown.
