Pressure Distributions at Transonic Speeds for Bumpy and Indented Midsections of a Basic Parabolic-Arc Body

摘要

The measured static-pressure distributions at the model surface and in the surrounding flow field are presented for a basic parabolic-arc body having a fineness ratio of 14 and for three additional bodies obtained by modifying the basic parabolic-arc body along the middle portion of the body length by adding a bump, by indenting, or by quadripole shaping. The data were obtained with the various bodies at zero angle of attack. The Mach number varied from 0.80 to 1.20 with a corresponding Reynolds number (based on body length) variation of 27 x 10(exp 6) to 38 x 10(exp 6). The data are subject to tunnel-wall interference and do not represent free-air conditions.
