Book Description
Oscillating flow about a spiked body in a supersonic stream has been investigated in a wind tunnel at Mach 5 at free-stream unit Reynolds numbers of 2,500,000 to 20,000,000 per foot using fast-response pressure transducers, accelerometers and schlieren movie cameras. A tension-cone-type model with replaceable nosetips of two different lengths and two different surface roughnesses was used.
