Empirical formulas for the prediction of the base pressure of missile bodies at subsonic velocities
Abstract
Formulas for predicting base pressure of missile bodies at incidence are provided. The formulas are valid for cylindrical and boattailed afterbodies at free stream subsonic Mach numbers up to 0.9.
