DRAG COEFFICIENTS OF SEVERAL BODIES OF REVOLUTION AT TRANSONIC AND SUPERSONIC VELOCITY,

Abstract

The drag coefficients of several bodies of revolution which are significant for the purpose of aerodynamic deceleration were measured in the transonic flow regime and at supersonic speeds of Mach numbers 4 and 5. (Author)
