Description

  • Content Description: Linear-theory values of the supersonic pressure field and wave drag of nonlifting bumped and indented bodies of revolution are presented and compared with the corresponding properties of a smooth body. The comparisons indicate that relatively small surface irregularities cause large pressure disturbances and changes in wave drag. The interference drag produced by bumps and indentations is discussed and a correction for the curvature of the characteristics is applied.
