Abstract

This paper reviews recent aerodynamic tests of a family of slanted-base ogive-cylinders using the NASA Langley 13 inch Magnetic Suspension and Balance System. Results include drag, lift, pitching moment, support interference and base pressure measurements. Mach numbers were in the range 0.04 to 0.2. Drag results are shown to be in satisfactory agreement with previous measurements. Significant support interferences were found at all test conditions. Comparison is made between interference free base pressures, obtained using remote telemetry, and sting cavity pressures. Test results and procedures are briefly discussed in the context of the proposed helium flow facility.
