| Description | Experimental values of shock shapes (angles of attack of 0 deg and 10 deg) and static aerodynamic coefficients (angles of attack of -4 deg to 12 deg for sharp and spherically blunted cones having cone half angles of 30 deg, 45 deg, 60 deg, and 70 deg, and nose bluntness ratios of 0, 0.25, and 0.50 are presented. Shock shapes were measured at 0 deg angle of attack by using a flat faced cylinder (90 deg cone) and a hemispherically blunted cylinder (sphere). All tests were conducted in air at a free stream Mach number of 5.9 and a unit free stream Reynolds number of 2,800,000 per meter. Comparisons between measured values and predicted values were made by using several numerical and simple engineering methods. |
