Drag-reducing aerospike

http://dbpedia.org/resource/Drag-reducing_aerospike an entity of type: Thing

A drag-reducing aerospike is a device (see nose cone design) used to reduce the forebody pressure aerodynamic drag of blunt bodies at supersonic speeds. The aerospike creates a detached shock ahead of the body. Between the shock and the a zone of recirculating flow occurs which acts like a more streamlined forebody profile, reducing the drag. rdf:langString
