The effect of air-jet and strip modifications on the hydrodynamic characteristics of the streamline fuselage of a transonic airplane

Description: Report presenting 1/12-size model of a streamline fuselage modified by patterns of air jets or strips on the fuselage bottom. The effects of spacing of jets, length of jet rows, and direction of jets were determined for a simulated chine configuration. Data are presented on resistance, trim, effective hydrodynamic lift, and spray.
