These relations, togethwwith the
9、 volume condition (eq. (7) and the given lengthcondition, serve to determine yl and x and thus, of course, theshape of the entire body. As the length approaches O, x be-comes infinitely negative; while, as the length becomes in-finitely large, x approaches O. (In the latter case the bodyBhape approa

Intermediate nega-tive values of x correspond to intermediate values of lengthfor a given volume.Given length and surface area,-li this caae a fit integralto the Euler equation is given by equation (18), and theparametric

The latter equationsdetermine uniqu
12、ely, however, the values of y, (y2), equation (29) has two solutionsin yz. One solution yields values of y; greater than a result which violates the Le.gen namely, whenthe length is given (fixed) the bodies assume blunt noses,whereas, when the length is not given (i. e., is free), the bodiesassume s
13、harp noses. The former characteristic may betraced to the fact that with the length restricted, the netdrag is reduced by accepting higher pressures on a relativelysmall area of large slope near the nose, thus achievinglower pressures on a relatively large mea of small slope nearthe base. On the oth
14、er hand, when the length is not re-stricted it is evident that a sharp rather than a blunt nosewill obtain for minimum drag, since the drag of any blunt-nosed body can be reduced by simply reldng the requirement on length, thereby allowing the body to be made sharpnosed and generally more slender.In

Acomparison of the relative theoretical and experimental fore-drag co
18、dicients indicated that the calculated minimum-dragbodies were reasonable approximations to the correct shapes.It was verified, for example, that the minimum-drag bodyfor a given length and base diameter has as much as 20 per-cent less fored-rag thap a cone of the same fineness ratio.The cone is, ho
19、wever, the calculated minimum-drag bodyfor a given base diameter and surface area.The comparison between theory and experiment alsoindicated that the centrifugal forces in the flow about bodiescurved in the stream direction may influence their drag.The relative extent of this influence was found to
20、be pre-dictable, particularly at the higher Mach numbers, with asimple motivation to the impact theory of Newton. Itwas therefore suggested that improved approximations tominimum foredrag shapes at high supemonic airspeeds (forwhich the hypemonic similarity parameter has a valueappreciably greater t

In general,the resulting shapes were found to be somewhat blunter inthe region of the nose, to have more c-h%atu
