The Crossflow Separation of a Submarine Configuration in a Turning Maneuver

Abstract

The crossflow separation on a submarine configuration was studied. Forces and moments were taken for the submarine body alone, the body plus the sail, the body plus tail appendages, and the body with both a sail and tail appendages. Forces and moments were taken at sideslip angles from 0 deg to 15 deg. Oil flows were done for the body alone for sideslip angles of up to 20 deg.
