These discrepancies are small, and P overall agreement between theoretical and measured values of the pressure coefficient is considered excellent. Readings from a Preston tube, which was taped to the stern surface at the pressure tap locations, were used in conjunction with the steady pressure readings to obtain the shear stress distribution at the body sur- face.
