Generic Wing, Pylon, and Moving Finned Store

Abstract

A Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) Program of the U. S. Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL), formerly (AFATL), funded and supported this wind tunnel test. The data support the ongoing validation efforts for CFD codes. A review at AEDC, completed June 12. 1996, determined the data were unrestricted. The test met the objectives of providing pressure data from geometrically simple wing and store shapes under mutual interference conditions with the store both at its carriage position and at selected points along a realistic store separation trajectory. AFRL chose AEDC's 4-Foot Transonic Aerodynamic Wind Tunnel (4T) for the test AEDC's Captive Trajectory Support (CTS) system, a moving store-support mechanism, simulated the motion of the store. Dr. L. Liejewski, AFRL, Eglin AFB, FL 32542, designed and executed the test. F. Rolland Helm, Sverdrup Technology MS 6001, Arnold AFB TN, 37388, an AEDC project engineer, conducted the experiment
