POTENTIAL FLOW ABOUT SERIES 58 BODIES IN GENERAL TRANSLATIONAL AND ROTATIONAL MOTION.

Abstract

The potential-flow pressure and velocity distributions for a family of bodies of revolution, Series 58, were computed for various modes of motion. The results of these computations are presented, and their application of the determination of the flow field and minimum-pressure coefficients for arbitrary motion of bodies are discussed. The calculations were performed with the original UNIVAC installation at the David Taylor Model Basin and were checked with IBM 650 and 7070 installations at the State University of Iowa. (Author)
