Aerodynamics of Oscillating Control Surfaces at Transonic Speeds
Description:
Memorandum presenting a discussion of oscillating flap-type and all-movable controls with particular emphasis on the aerodynamic forces and moments at transonic speeds. Hinge-moment results from recent wind-tunnel and rocket-powered-model tests are summarized for trailing-edge flap-type controls to illustrate the effects of control hinge-line position and profile shape on one-degree-of-freedom flutter of this type of control.
