INTRODUCTION This issue of Aeronautical Engineering -- A Continuing Bibliography (NASA SP-7037) lists 637 reports, journal articles and other documents originally announced in May 1990 in Scientific and Technical Aerospace Reports (STAR) or in International Aerospace Abstracts (IAA). The coverage includes documents on the engineering and theoretical aspects of design, construction, evaluation, testing, operation, and performance of aircraft (including aircraft engines) and associated components, equipment, and systems. It also includes research and development in aerodynamics, aeronautics, and ground support equipment for aeronautical vehicles. Each entry in the bibliography consists of a standard bibliographic citation accompanied in most cases by an abstract. The listing of the entries is arranged by the first nine STAR specific categories and the remaining STAR major categories. This arrangement offers the user the most advantageous breakdown for individual objectives. The citations include the original accession numbers from the respective announcement journals. The IAA items will precede the STAR items within each category. Seven indexes -- subject, personal author, corporate source, foreign technology, contract number, report number, and accession number -- are included. An annual cumulative index will be published. Information on the availability of cited publications including addresses of organizations and NTIS price schedules is located at the back of this bibliography.

TITLE ----._.-_AN EXPERIMENTAL INVESTIGATION OF THE AERODYNAMIC CHARACTERISTICS OF SLANTED BASE OGIVE CYLINDERS USING MAGNETIC SUSPENSION TECHNOLOGY AUTHORS _CHARLES W. ALCORN and COLIN BRITCHER Nov. 1988_ PUBLICATION DATE 9O p CONTRACT NUMBER _ (Contract NAG1-716) AVAILABILITY SOURCE REPORT NUMBERS _(NASA-CR-181708; NAS 1.26:181708) Avail: NTIS'_C A05/MF A01 _ PRICE CODE COSATI CODE _CSCL 01/1 An experimental investigation is reported on slanted base ogive cylinders at zero incidence. The Mach number range is 0.05 to 0.3. All flow disturbances associated with wind tunnel supports are eliminated in this investigation by magnetically suspending the wind tunnel models. The sudden and drastic changes in the lift, pitching moment, and drag for a slight change in base slant angle are reported. Flow visualization with liquid crystals and oil is used to observe base flow patterns, which are responsible for the sudden changes in aerodynamic characteristics. Hysteretic effects in base flow pattern changes are present in this investigation and are reported. The effect of a wire support attachment on the 0 deg slanted base model is studied. Computational drag and transition location results using VSAERO and SANDRAG are presented and compared with experimental results. Base pressure measurements over the slanted bases are made with an onboard pressure transducer using remote data telemetry.
