Aerodynamic characteristics extended to high angles of attack at transonic speeds of a small-scale 0 degree sweep wing, 45 degree sweptback wing, and 60 degree delta wing
Description:
Report presenting an investigation of a series of wings of various plan forms in the high-velocity field of the side-wall reflection plate of the 7- by 10-foot tunnel at a range of angles of attack and Mach numbers. The results indicated that the maximum lift coefficients obtainable increased with increase in sweep angle and decreased with Mach number at the lower subsonic Mach numbers.
