The suction analogy concept of Polhamus for predicting vortex lift in conjunction with an appropriate potential-flow solution is called the present method. This method is applied to an aspect ratio 0.25 sharp-edge delta wing from a Mach number of 0.143 to 10.4 in free air and at 0.074 in ground effect, and also to an aspect ratio 0.35 triangular crosssectional body at a Mach number of 6.9. The models had subsonic leading edges at the test Mach numbers. Vortex-flow effects could be neither confirmed nor denied to exist at high speeds because of the lack of flow visualization above a Mach number of 0.143. The data, however, could be better predicted by including a vortex-flow effect, although not always to the extent predicted from the present method because of the presence of actual and hypothesized unmodeled flow situations. The method of Nenni and Tung (NASA CR-1860) tended to confirm the existence of vortex flow at hypersonic speeds. The hypersonic-tangent-cone method predicted best the delta-wing results over the test angle-of-attack range and hypersonic Mach number range and did equally as well as the present method for the triangular body.
Measurement of convective heat transfer rates on conical nosecap and hemispherical afterbody configuration at hypersonic speed
The laminar two-dimensional flow over a stepwise accelerated flat plate moving with hypersonic speed at zero angle of attack is analysed. The governing equations in the self-similar form are linearized and solved numerically for small times. The solutions obtained are the deviations of the velocity and the temperature profiles from those of steady state. The presented results may be used to find the first order boundary layer induced pressure on the plate.
A testing technique for obtaining the static aerodynamic characteristics of twin-fuselage configurations at hypersonic speeds by using a conventional single-balance installation has been evaluated. Data from a triple-fuselage model and a single-fuselage model were summed and then halved to obtain the characteristics for a twin-fuselage model of the same scale. The three related models were evaluated experimentally at Mach 20.3 in helium and Mach 6 in air for an angle-of-attack range from minus 6 deg to 50 deg. The Reynolds numbers, based on model length, were 1.88 million for the Mach 20.3 tests and 2.55 million for the Mach 6 tests.
