STABILITY AND DRAG OF A MODIFIED SATURN/APOLLO SECOND-STAGE CONFIGURATION IN THE NOL PRESSURIZED BALLISTICS RANGE.

Abstract

Thirty launchings of models of a modified Saturn/Apollo second-stage configuration were performed. The purpose of the launchings was to obtain stability and drag coefficients in a realm of Mach numbers from 4 to 8 and ambient air pressures from 6.3 to 928 mm Hg. (Author)
