... Further, the body itself loosely resembles a submarine hull, which has obvious relevance for a solution algorithm with a hydrodynamic focus. Experimental data is available from Meter t351 for 3D boundary layers developing on the prolate spheroid; this data is in the form of surface pressure distributions for steady Hows at angle Figure 3: Pressure distribution on body surface and at C/L = 0.83 of attack and for unsteady pitch/plunge/turn body motions.
