PRESSURE AND NORMAL-FORCE DISTRIBUTIONS ON TOMAHAWK AND SANDHAWK MODELS AT MACH NUMBERS 6 AND 8

Abstract

Wind tunnel tests were conducted at Mach numbers of 6 and 8 to obtain pressure and normal-force distribution data on the Tomahawk and Sandhawk configurations. Model angle of attack ranged from -4 to +6 deg at free-stream Reynolds numbers, based on model diameter, of 430,000 and 730,000 at Mach number 6 and 430,000 and 580,000 at Mach number 8. Selected results are presented to illustrate the types and quality of data obtained.
