Abstract

Experimental investigations were carried out in 0.3m13; trisonic wind tunnel at NAL to study separated transonic13; interaction characteristics of an axisymmetric afterbody13; configuration. The model chosen for these studies was an13; equivalent body of revolution of a representative combat aircraft configuration. Experiments were conducted in the the free stream Mach number range of 0.98 to 1.21 at constant Reynolds number of 35xlo6/m keeping model at zero degree of incidence. Jet pressure ratio was varied from 1 to about 6. The jet at nozzle exit was sonic throughout these tests.With the availability of the experimental data in the transonic Mach number range, an attempt has been made to predjct the location of the separated flow region over the afterbody without and with the presence of a propulsive jet. Available experimental results for the jet-off, simulated sting and separation locations predicted from modified Page's and Reshotko-Tucker's separation criterion compared well with the present results for the jet-off condition.
