Experimental Study of Forces and Moments on Circular Bodies at High Angle of Attack.
Abstract
Twelve different slender bodies were tested at Mach 2 and 3 in the angle of attack range of 20 and 58 degrees. Normal and yaw forces and moments were monitored. On select models vortex paths were traced using schlieren pictures. Normal forces and moments were studied using the cross flow analogy. The accuracy of this analog appears to be best when the crossflow is supersonic.
