Experimental investigation of the effects of support interference on the pressure distribution of a body of revolution at a Mach number of 3.12 and Reynolds numbers from 2 x 10(exp 6) to 14 x 10(exp 6) (open access)

Experimental investigation of the effects of support interference on the pressure distribution of a body of revolution at a Mach number of 3.12 and Reynolds numbers from 2 x 10(exp 6) to 14 x 10(exp 6)

Report presenting an experimental investigation performed to determine the effect on base and forebody pressures of using a sting modified with varying length splitter plates and fins instead of a conventional sting to support a cone-cylinder body of revolution.
