The problem of hypersonic stagnation line merged-layer flow of variously shaped blunt asisymmetric bodies is here formulated in such a way as to allow analytical calculations for bodies generated by a conic section. The governing equations encompass, apart from the usual parameters, the eccentricity of the conic section that generates the body-of-revolution for the effect of body shape on the solution obtained. The stagnation-point surface pressure increases as the favorable pressure gradient decreases, in the course of a change of body shape from spherical to hyperboloid.
