'Leading-Edge Vortex System Details Obtained on F-106B 57-Aircraft Using a Rotating Vapour Screen And Surface Techniques' A flight research program to study the flow structure and separated-flow origins over an F-106B aircraft wing is depicted. The flight parameters presented in this video include Mach numbers from 0.26 to 0.81, angles of attack from 8.5 degrees to 22.5 degrees, Reynolds numbers from 22.6 x 10 super 6 to 57.3 x 10super 6, and load factors from 0.9 to 3.9 times the acceleration due to gravity. Techniques for vapor screens, image enhancement, photogrammetry, and computer graphics are integrated to analyze vortex-flow systems. Emphasis is placed on the development and application of the techniques.
