EXPANSION-SIDE FLOW FIELD PRESSURE TESTS OF A 75-DEG DELTA WING AT MACH NUMBER 10

Abstract

Leeward surface pressures, oil flow photographs, and flow field pressure surveys were obtained at a nominal Mach number of 10 for a 75-deg sharp leading-edge delta wing. Tests were conducted at free-stream unit Reynolds numbers of 730,000 and 1,460,000/ft, angles of attack from 0 to 21 deg, and zero sideslip angle. Selected results are presented to illustrate the quality and types of data obtained.
