An Investigation of Aileron Oscillations at Transonic Speeds on NACA 23012 and NACA 65-212 Airfoils by the Wing-Flow Method
Description:
An investigation is being conducted to determine the feasibility of studying aileron buzz by means of the wing-flow method. Two semispan models which had an aspect ratio of 6 and a taper ratio of 2 with quarter-chord half-span mass-balanced ailerons have been used. One had an NACA 23012 airfoil section and the second, an NACA 65-212 airfoil section. The ailerons on both models were subject to buzz over a small range of Mach number near 0.9. Data obtained by wing-flow testing agreed reasonably w…
