Fig. 6. Pressure coefficients (Cp) plotted as a function of
location along various dorso-ventral transects (A-F) on the scrawled cowfish
model positioned at positive (left) and negative (right) pitch angles. The
locations of the pressure ports included in each graph are highlighted in
images to the left of the graphs. The location of each dorso-ventral transect
is expressed as a percentage of ventral keel length (measured from the
anterior leading edge) in the lower left-hand corner of each image. Ports in
red and white are located on the sides and ventrum of the model, respectively.
Denotes ports that were slightly out of alignment with
other ports along the dorso-ventral transect; * represent transects
that were considered in DPIV studies. Blue and red rectangles highlight ports
where local pressure minima were consistently detected at dorsal and ventral
locations, respectively. An ambient pressure line (Cp=0)
was included in the most posteriorly located transect (F).
