Abstract
Experimental studies on the wakes behind the self-propelled bodies of revolution have been analysed, and results of stereometric studies on the co-current flows behind autonomous streamlined and bluff bodies of revolution are presented for the times of their development corresponding to the coordinate system of a distant wake of 2400 and 1200 body diameters, correspondingly. Possible modelling of axisymmetric co-currents by the flows generated by a string at its pulse motion along the axis is examined. It is shown that supposed solutions based on the model of interferential development of wakes behind the self-propelled bodies of revolution can approximate both the known results of experimental studies of wakes behind the self-propelled bodies of revolution and the flows generated by corresponding pulse transportation of a string.
