Transonic aerodynamic investigation of tension shell and blunted 100 deg conical shapes for unmanned entry vehicles

An experimental investigation of a spherically blunted 100° cone and two tension shell configurations with varying nose-bluntness ratios for use in unmanned entry into low -density planetary atmospheres has been conducted by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration at Mach numbers from 0.30 to 1.20 and at angles of attack from approximately O° to 40°. The results show that the models were longitudinally stable, with centers of pressure located rearward of the base at all test conditions. The tension shell configurations exhibited substantially higher axial-force coefficients than the 100° cone although the variation of axial-force coefficient with Mach number at zero angle of attack was similar for all configurations. An increase in tension shell body length resulted in a reduction of the axial-force coefficients and a more forward center-of-pressure location. Variation in nose bluntness had no significant effect on the longitudinal aerodynamic characteristics of the tension shell configurations.
