Experimental Aerodynamic Investigations of Configuration Shape for Ring Tail Missiles at Mach Numbers from 0.5 to 1.3
Abstract
Experimental aerodynamic investigations were conducted during January, 1972 at the AEDC PWT 4T wind tunnel on approximately 20 different configurations of ring tail missiles. The more important geometric parameters considered were ring tail support strut length, strut start position, and ring tail to centerbody diameter ratio. Six component aerodynamic force and moment data were recorded over an angle of attack range from -6 deg to 6 deg at Mach numbers ranging from 0.5 to 1.3.
