Open publisher page 2 citations

Abstract

Report presenting an investigation in the transonic pressure tunnel to determine the aerodynamic loading characteristics of a 60 degree delta wing in the presence of a body with and without body indentation in accordance with the transonic-area-rule concept. Tests covered a range of angles of attack and Mach numbers. Results regarding force and moment coefficients and curves are provided.
