Handbook of Blunt-body Aerodynamics


Book Description

The report describes methods for quickly estimating the normal force and center of pressure of blunt free-fall shapes of l/d = 0.5 to 10 over a Mach number range of 0.4 to 2.5 and up to alpha = 90 degrees. Charts and equations presented in the report are from cited reference material and original sources. Methods based on slender-body theory tested on blunt shapes and modifying factors were developed where needed.
