Low-speed vortical flow over a 5-degree cone with tip geometry variations
Abstract
Experimental results on the surface pressures and sectional side forces on a 5-deg cone were obtained for the cases of three different nose tips. The sectional side force data for both the sharp cone and the blunt nose cone configurations showed a dependence on roll orientation. The blunt nose configurations were found to be effective in reducing the sectional side force for angles of attack up to 25 deg.
