ANTONIOU, JLOUKAKIS, TTZABIRAS, GThe present work is concerned with the numerical and the experimental investigation of the surface pressure distribution around a body of revolution at incidence. Numerical results have been obtained by both potential and viscous flow calculations. The latter were carried out using the partially parabolic method with the k-epsilon turbulence model. To evaluate the numerical methods, experiments were performed in the NTUA towing tank on a body of revolution having a length to diameter ratio of 10 at Re = 1.87 x 10(6). The measured values of the pressure coefficients are compared with numerical predictions for various circumferential angles and angles of incidence.http://hdl.handle.net/123456789/23096ISI:A1990FL79600005140342-068X5315326engSPRINGER VERLAGZEITSCHRIFT FUR FLUGWISSENSCHAFTEN UND WELTRAUMFORSCHUNGFLOWNUMERICAL AND EXPERIMENTAL INVESTIGATION OF THE PRESSURE FIELD AROUND A BODY OF REVOLUTION AT INCIDENCEjournalArticle1990Δημοσίευση σε περιοδικόPublication in journalΑεροδιαστημική μηχανικήAerospace Engineeringisi - Engineering, Aerospace includes resources concerned with astronautics, aeronautics, aerospace, and aviation.
