Abstract

The drag on a hemisphere in a finite-flow field with free surface effects is evaluated by successively studying six flow fields, which allows the study of one new variable at a time. These flow fields are: the semi-infinite uniform and nonuniform flow fields, the finite uniform and nonuniform flow fields without free surface effects, and the finite uniform and nonuniform flow fields with free surface effects. Three regimes of flow are defined for the hemisphere which are: (1) A regime of pronounced free surface effects, (2) a regime of moderate free surface effects, and (3) a regime of negligible free surface effects. The effect of these variables and range of conditions under which they are effective is considered.
