Front Fairing Extension Wind Tunnel Test for UIUC Photon Torpedo. In an attempt to delay or eliminate stagnation behind the rear fairings, an additional fiberglass mockup of a fairing extension was added to the vehicle and tested for both flow pattern and overall drag reduction. Tests were qualitatively successful, with this photo exhibiting turbulent attached flow.
