What is Pressure Distribution on a Rotating Cylinder about?
The document summarizes an experiment measuring pressure distribution on a cylinder placed in a wind tunnel. Students measured the local pressure coefficient around the cylinder surface at increments of 10 degrees as it rotated. They plotted the pressure coefficient versus angle and found it was symmetric and lowest at the separation point on the cylinder. Integrating the pressure coefficient curve versus the sinus of the angle allowed calculating the pressure drag coefficient according to theoretical equat
