Effects of Wing-Tip Fin and Nose Geometry on the Stability Characteristics of a Tow Target Configuration at Mach Numbers from 0.5 to 0.9.

摘要

Aerodynamic stability and drag coefficients were obtained for five configurations of a 0.166-scale tow target at Mach numbers from 0.5 to 0.90. The primary configuration variables were tip fin size and fin cant angle. Effects of a blunted ogive nose as compared to an inlet shape nose were also investigated. (Author)
