An Approximation of Aerodynamic Coefficients of Thin Bodies of Revolution Moving at Very Great Supersonic Speeds

摘要

Topics include: pressure coefficient on a thin cone at very high Mach numbers; approximation of magnitude of pressure coefficient on the surface of a solid of revolution with arbitrary generatrix; approximation of magnitude of wave-drag coefficient; approximate evaluation of magnitude of lift coefficient; approximation of magnitude of moment coefficient and coefficient of center of pressure.
