Abstract

The separated transonic-interaction characteristics of an axisymmetric boat- tailed afterbody configuration were investigated using a model consisting of an equivalent body of revolution of a representative combat aircraft configuration and a 0.3 trisonic wind tunnel. Experiments were carried out in the free stream Mach number range of 0.98 to 1.21 at constant free stream Reynolds number of 35 x 10 to the 6th/m, keeping the model at 0-deg incidence. Results show that an increase of free stream Mach number in the transonic range caused the separated flow region to move downstream toward the boat-tail end, while an increase in jet pressure ratio caused the upstream movement of the separated flow locations over the boat-tail.
