| Description | Drag characteristics have been obtained for the X-15 airplane during unpowered flight. These data represent a Mach number range from about 0.7 to 3.1 and a Reynolds number range from 13.9 x 10(exp 6) to 28 x 10(exp 8), based on the mean aerodynamic chord. The full-scale data are compared with estimates compiled from several wind-tunnel facilities. The agreement between wind-tunnel and full-scale supersonic drag, uncorrected for Reynolds number effects, is reasonably close except at low supersonic Mach numbers where the flight values are significantly higher. |
