Supersonic Flow around a Body of Small Elongation / S.V. Guvernyuk, A.F. Zubkov, K.M. Pichkhadze, V.S. Finchenko and A.I. Shvets // Vestn. Mosk. Univ., Matem. Mekhan. 2009. № 5. P. 69-71 [Moscow Univ. Mech. Bulletin. Vol. 64, No 5, 2009. P. 123-125]
The results of experimental studies conducted in an aerodynamic tube at the Mach number M = 1,78 for a model of a blunt-shaped body of small elongation are given. The effect of the attack angle on the coefficients of drag and lifts, the static stability, and the pressure center position is discussed.
Key words: supersonic flow, body of small elongation, static stability, center of
pressure.
