Book excerpt: Transonic wind tunnel tests were conducted on a sting-mounted model to determine thrust effects on longitudinal stability characteristics of several body-fin combinations. The plume was simulated by cold air ejected from a series of sonic jets normal to the missile axis. One fin configuration was tested at several longitudinal positions. Adverse plume effects on stability were reduced by location of fins a distance forward of the base. The test was conducted at the Calspan Corporations' 8 foot Transonic Wind Tunnel at Mach numbers ranging from 0.4 to 1.25. Angles of attack ranged from -4 degrees to 12 degrees. Data were also obtained at roll angles of 22.5 degrees and 45 degrees for one configuration.

Book excerpt: Transonic wind tunnel tests were conducted on a body of revolution with various fin configurations to investigate jet plume effects on missile longitudinal stability. A series of cold air normal jets located downstream of the base were utilized to simulate the jet plume. Fins of various planform geometry were tested at a forward longitudinal location only. The angle of attack range was -4 to 11 degrees at Mach numbers of from 0.2 to 2.3. The test was run at the Arnold Engineering Development Center Transonic (16T) and Supersonic (16S) wind tunnels and was designated AEDC SF172/TF360. (Author).

Book excerpt: A transonic wind tunnel test was performed in the Calspan Corporation 8-Foot Transonic Wind Tunnel on a missile model with tail fins in the presence of a simulated jet plume. The test was conducted during February, 1974. The purpose of the test was to establish a correlation between the thrust level and missile longitudinal stability, and to assess the effectiveness of locating stabilizing fins forward of the model base as a means of alleviating adverse plume effects. This was the second series of tests performed with this model at Calspan. The results of the earlier test, which also included a canard effectiveness study, were previously reported. The test was conducted over a Mach number range from 0.40 to 1.25 at a condition corresponding to a wind-off static pressure of 0.5 atmospheres. Model angle of attack was varied from -4 to 12 degrees.

Book excerpt: This report summarizes the studies made to date by the Army Missile Command on the effects of the rocket jet plume on the Stability characteristics of a body of revolution with various fin configurations and at various fin positions on the body. The Mach numbers ranged from 0.2 to 2.3. A normal jet plume simulator was used to obtain the desired plume effects. This report concerns itself with those tests conducted on a 5-in. diameter, 52-in. long model, with a 3 caliber tangent ogive nose.
