Low-speed aerodynamic characteristics of three Busemann type silent supersonic biplanes were studied by expermental and numerical approaches. CL, Cd and Cm were measured by a compact force balance in both cases of pitching motion and static condition with an angle of attack and the relation to the flowfield was investigated.
