Artificially Induced Transition Results from a 7-Deg, 14-7-Deg Biconic, and 5-Deg Cone at Mach 9 in the AEDC-VKF Tunnel F

Abstract

Tests are described which measured the artificially induced transition location on a slightly blunted 7-deg cone. Various distributed roughness and spherical type boundary layer trips were used. The tests were conducted at Mach 9 over a free stream Reynolds number range from 500,000/ft. to 20,000,000/ft. Test results are not included in the report.
