The time-dependent flows around wings and slender bodies of revolution undergoing large-amplitude harmonic motions were investigated using unique flow visualization techniques. The lifting surfaces were towed in an 18-meter water channel at Reynolds numbers up to 750,000. The effects of planform, leading edge contour, reduced frequency and Reynolds number were investigated. The unsteady separation phenomenon was found to be significantly different from the separation on a lifting surface in steady flight. The role of the separation vortices was elaborated and a model of the flow field is proposed. Keywords: Pitch motion, Delta wings, Maneuverability, Unsteady separated flows, Lifting surfaces, Three-dimensional wings, Body of revolution, Supermaneuverability. (EDC)
