内容記述 | Results are presented of an experimental study aimed at revealing the origin of the asymmetric mean flow that occurs on pointed bodies of revolution at moderate-to-high angles of attack. The placement of a small fixed disturbance (a minute spherical bead) on a very thin wire at various locations in the flow near the tip of the model is shown to provoke the same range of behavior of the asymmetric flow that was produced earlier by use of a controlled retractable wire protuberance, here without touching or altering the tip at all. Results remain consistent with the presence of a convective instability mechanism, and demonstrate the potential for a precise mapping of the body's receptivity to fixed disturbances in the flowfield. |
