| Description | The longitudinal, lateral, and directional aerodynamic characteristics of two space shuttle concepts have been obtained in helium for operational flight Reynolds numbers at angles of attack from minus 10 to 55 deg. Included are elevon control deflections, roll control due to ailerons, and the effects of a nose modification. Selected results were compared with those derived from tangent-cone and Newtonian theories. Also included are results of a flow-visualization study consisting of electron-beam-illuminated flow and surface oil-flow patterns. |
