Abstract

To predict the full-scale aerodynamics of a combat aircraft performing high-alpha maneuvers requires the combined usage of experimental and theoretical tools. The preferred experimental tool is the rotary rig because it provides simulation of one important component of advanced maneuvers, i.e., the velocity vector roll. The present paper analyzes the results obtained in the recently completed investigation by AGARD FDP Working Group 16. Anomalous results are obtained when attempting to simulate high-Reynolds-number rotary characteristics in subscale tests using boundary-layer trips alone or in combination with forebody strakes
