The results of the investigation s
23、how that the abrupt changes /in aerodynamic parameters in the transonic region are closely related to the devel- /opment of the shock wave pattern. Those parameters most affected were the normal /force coefficient slope and the forebody drag coefficient. The center of pressure, on the other hand, re
24、mained relatively stationary for cones with moderate half- . . Iangles, except at very near sonic Mach number. The effects of bluntness were mini_real at Mach numbers smaller than those required for shock attachment on pointed /cones. At higher Mach numbers, bluntness effects were sizeable for the s
25、maller cone half-angles, but negligible for the larger ones. In every case, increases in bluntness as well as cone angle increased the downstream movement of, the, center of pressure. _)/.c. /y/ _)INTRODUCTIONThe inadequacy of theory in predicting the aerodynamic characteristicsof blunted cones accu
26、rately creates a need for a thorough experimental investi-gation. Such a study has been especially desirable in the transonic Mach numberrange where no practical theory applies.This experimental program was initiated to satisfy this need and to providedesigners of blunted-cone vehicles with data fro
27、m a wide range of parametric varia-tions. The normal force coefficient slopes, center of pressure locations, and fore-body drag coefficients were determined for twelve cones over a Mach number rangefrom 0.5 to 5.0. The models used in the investigation were grouped into fourfamilies of different cone
28、 angles, each having three different nose bluntness ratios.Eight models with two additional bluntness ratios were tested up to M= 2.0 i.From this wide range of geometric parameters, the effects of bluntness and coneangle could be deduced in addition to those of Mach number. The tests were con-ducted
29、 at the NASA, Marshall Space Flight Center, i4 x 14-inch trisonic and the7 x 7-inch supersonic wind tunnels.Provided by IHSNot for ResaleNo reproduction or networking permitted without license from IHS-,-,-MODELSANDAPPARATUSThe investigation was conducted in three series of tests. Transonic and supe
30、r-sonic tests were run in the trisonic wind tunnel over Mach number ranges from 0.47to i. 93 and 2.74 to 4.96, respectively. To establish the continuity and validity of thedata, a supersonic test covering the Mach range from i. 58 to 4. 39 was conducted in the7 x 7-inch supersonic wind tunnel. The c

33、rking permitted without license from IHS-,-,-Twelve cone models representing four families of different cone half-angles of10, i3.32, 25, and 50 degrees were tested at all of the above Maeh number ranges.The three cones within each family had bluntness ratios of 0, 0.4, and 0.8;i. e., onewas pointed
34、, while the other two were trtfmcated and tipped with spherical segments.Eight models, representing two additional bluntness ratios (d/D = 0.2 and 0.6) foreach of the cone families, were tested in only the Mach number range from 0.43 to1.93. 1 The geometric characteristics of the models and nomencla
35、ture are given inFigure i, and the configurations tested are represented in the diagrams of Figure 2.Some representative Schlieren pictures of the test models are shown in Figure 3 forvarious Mach numbers.All models were mounted on a sting which contained a system of interchangeablestrain gauge beam
36、s as parts of a three:component balance. Because of limitationson the model size, the balance system used in the 7 x 7-inch tunnel test was housedwithin a faired portion of the sting aft of the model base. The balance assembly ofthe 14 x 14-inch tunnel, however, could be fitted conventionally to the
37、 forward end ofthe sting projecting into the models. Composition X-ray pictures of both balancesystems are shown in Figures 4 and 5.ACCURACYOFDATAAll force and base pressure measurements were taken over the angle of attackrange from approximately -4 to i0 , which was traversed automatically in both
38、tunnelfacilities. Because of the sting effects on base pressures, the accuracy of the totaldrag is somewhat uncertain. By subtracting the base drag, which was determined froma base pressure measurement, the invalid component is removed. The resulting foredrag, which consists of wave drag and skin fr
39、iction drag, should be accurate at thedesignated Reynolds numbers.Data reduction of the strain gauge and base pressure readings were achievedthrough digitizing the analog signals, punching values into data cards, and finallyprocessing the card data into coefficient form by computer.The accuracy of t
40、he data, estimated by several means, takes into considera-tion the following:a. Data scatterb. Repeatability of a given test pointc. Agreement of data measured by several different strain gaugesd. Level of accuracy of previous testse. Continuity between the data from the two different test facilitie

42、evariation of normal force coefficient slope, center of pressure, and forebody dragcoefficient with Mach number for various cone configurations and also to show theeffects of cone half-angle (_) and bluntness (d/D). The basic data variations withMach number are given in Figures 7 through 15 for vari
43、ous cone half-angles andare grouped according to bluntness. To provide data for the lower end of the Machnumber spectrum, the results of the transonic test published earlier 1 are in-cluded. Results from various other sources 2,3 are also incorporated whenpossible. The interpolated values for variou
44、s intermediate cone half-angles, repre-sented by dashed lines, are also indicated in the above figures. By presenting cross-plots of the aerodynamic characteristics versus cone half-angles at various Machnumbers Figures t6 through 37), the effects of cone angle and bluntness can bestudied directly.
45、Here again the data from other sources, notably from Reference3, provided complementing key points.NormalForceCoefficient SlopeWith a few exceptions, the linearity of normal force coefficient with angle ofattack was maintained to approximately 4 degrees. The normal force coefficientslopes at zero an

For zero bluntness cones, the values of normal force coefficientslope remain relatively constant once the local flow becomes supersonic, and thelevels agree well with hypersonic Newtonan theory, even for Mach numbers l
47、essthan 5.0. For blunted cones, however, the values of normal force coefficientsslope for moderate cone half-angles decline at the beginning of the supersonic Mathnumber range, but tend to remain constant or increase slightly at the end of thetest Mach number range. An increase in C N values with st
48、ill higher Mach numberswould be necessary to obtain agreement withhypersonic Newtonan values.For Mach numbers smaller than M (minimum Mach number for shockattachment for pointed cone) , no significanSt changes in CN_ were observed as thebluntness was increased from 0 to 0.4.
