Description

  • Content Description: From Summary: "A wind-tunnel investigation has been made in the Langley high-speed 7- by 10-foot wind tunnel by use of the transonic-bump technique to study the effectiveness of spoiler-type controls on 9 unswept untapered wings. Full-span spoilers, projected to 7.5 percent wing chord along the 40-, 60-, 80-, and 100-percent wing chord lines, were tested on wings of aspect ratio 1 to 6 at Mach numbers from 0.6 to 1.10. Most of the data are presented without analysis."
