Description:
The symmetric and asymmetric leeward-side flow fields on an inclined ogive-cylinder have been investigated using a number of experimental techniques. Naturally occurring and perturbed flow fields were studied at a moderate Reynolds number and at many incidence angles. By close examination of the steady side force behavior at different roll orientations of the tip, it has been established that micro-variations in the tip geometry of the model have a large influence on the downstream development of the flow field. Under certain conditions, a bistable flow field was observed.
