Results are presented of a comparison between the pressure distributions predicted by the perfect-gas computational fluid dynamics and the Shuttle Orbiter wind-tunnel data for high angles of attack, using the LAURA (for Langley Aerothermodynamic Upwind Relaxation Algorithm) as applied to the wind-tunnel condition to predict the flow over the vehicle. It is shown that the calculated pressures compare well with the wind tunnel data for both the windward and the leeward sides, indicating that the salient inviscid flow features were properly modeled.
