Jet effects on longitudinal trim of an airplane configuration measured at Mach numbers between 1.2 and 1.8
Flight Measurements of Base Pressure on Bodies of Revolution with and Without Simulated Rocket Chambers
Base pressures were measured on fin-stabilized bodies of revolution with and without rocket chambers and with and without a converging afterbody. At Mach numbers between 0.7 and 1.2, the results show that the presence of a "cold" rocket chamber increased the pressure (less suction) over the center portion of the bases. The effects of rocket chambers on pressures near the edge of the bases were not as consistent throughout the Mach number range nor as appreciable at most speeds as were the effects of pressures measured on the center line
Results of Rocket Model Test of an Airplane Configuration Having an Arrow Wing and Slender Flat-sided Fuselage : Lift, Drag, Longitudinal Stability, Lateral Force, and Jet Effects at Mach Numbers Between 1.0 and 2.3
Results of the Flight Test of a Dummy of the MX-656 Rocket-Propelled Models
The data obtained from the flight of a simplified (dummy) rocket-propelled model of the MX-656 have been analyzed to determine the booster-model characteristics and the model-alone characteristics up to a Mach number of 1.3. The data indicate that the model-booster combination is satisfactory. The model alone is longitudinally stable i n the Mach number range covered by the test (0.9 to 1.3) with the center of gravity at -15 percent of the mean aerodynamic chord. With the stabilizer setting at 0 deg. the variation of normal-force coefficient with Mach number is not large. The total-drag-coefficient variation with Mach number is not unusual. About 12 percent of the total drag at a Mach number of 1.3 can be attributed to body base drag
