    Supersonic inlet flows with mixed external-compressions were computed using a combined implicit-explicit (beam-warming-Steger/MacCormack) method for solving the three-dimensional unsteady, compressible Navier- Stokes equations in conservation form. Numerical calculations were made of various flows related to such inlet operations as the shock-wave intersections, subsonic spillage around the cowl lip, and inlet 'started' versus 'unstarted' conditions. Some of the computed results were compared with wind tunnel data.
