Hydrodynamics Characteristics of the 500 Pound T16 S. P. Bomb

Abstract

Reported herein are tests of the 500 pound T 16 S. P. Bomb covering the hydrodynamic force coefficients with and without cavitation, incipient cavitation characteristics, and flow lines as revealed in the Polarized Light Flume. It was not possible to cause full cavitation with present water tunnel limitations.
