The results of aerodynamic pressure and wingroot bending-moment testing conducted on a 0.015-scale Configuration 140A/B space shuttle vehicle orbiter reaction control system plume-impingement model are documented. The model was investigated at nominal Mach numbers of 5.3, 7.3, and 10.3, at unit Reynolds numbers of 4,200,000 ft, 7,300,000 ft, and 1,700,000 ft. Model attitude was varied in angle of attack from 18 deg to 38 deg at angles of sideslip from -2 deg to +2 deg. The test program was conducted to establish and reaffirm incremental orbiter pressure-profile and structural-loads data due to operation of the aftbody reaction control system pitch-down engines.
