AFT BODY AND FIN LOADS (IN THE PRESENCE OF A SPOILER BAND) ON A HIGH- FINENESS-RATION BODY AND BODY-FIN COMBINATION THROUGH THE MACH RANGE FROM 0.3 TO 1.2 AT ANGLES OF ATTACK FROM 0 TO 40 DEGREES

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:4265028

A wind-tunnel pressure test was run on a highfineness-ratio body and body-fin combination with a spoiler band where pressures were measured on the body and horizontal fins at angles of attack from 0 to 40 degrees over the Mach range from 0.3 to 1.2. Body and fin load distributions were calculated from the measured pressures. These distributions were then integrated to obtain body and fin normal-force loads and fin centers of pressure. (auth)
