contents In this paper, we first investigate the mathematical aspects of supersonic flow of a Chaplygin gas past a conical wing with diamond-shaped cross sections in the case of a shock wave detached from the leading edges. The flow under consideration is governed by the three-dimensional steady compressible Euler equations. For the Chaplygin gas, all characteristics are linearly degenerate, and shocks are reversible and characteristic. Using these properties, we can determine the location of the shock in advance and reformulate our problem as an oblique derivative problem for a nonlinear degenerate elliptic equation in conical coordinates. By establishing a Lipschitz estimate, we show that the equation is uniformly elliptic in any subdomain strictly away from the degenerate boundary, and then further prove the existence of a solution to the problem via the continuity method and vanishing viscosity method.
