Comparison between theory and experiment for interference pressure field between wing and body at supersonic speeds

Description: Report presenting pressure-distribution data for a wing-body combination at several Mach and Reynolds numbers to investigate the effects of wing-body interference. The model was a single-wedge, rectangular wing mounted on a cylindrical body with an ogival nose. Results regarding the general physical principles, effects of angle of attack, effect of wing-incidence angle, effect of Reynolds number, and comparison with theory from other sources are provided.
