Investigation at high subsonic speeds of finned and unfinned bodies mounted at various locations from the wings of unswept- and swept-wing--fuselage models, including measurements of body loads

Description: Report presenting an investigation to determine the effects of location of bodies (finned and unfinned) on the aerodynamic characteristics of unswept- and swept-wing--fuselage models and to determine the aerodynamic loads on the bodies in the presence of the wings. Results for the complete model characteristics and for the body are provided.

The Use of Area Suction to Increase the Effectiveness of a Trailing-Edge Flap on a Triangular Wing of Aspect Ratio 2

Description: "A wind-tunnel investigation was conducted to determine the effect of applying area-suction boundary-layer control to a constant-chord plain flap on a triangular wing of aspect ratio 2. The results showed that with small amounts of suction applied near the leading edge of the flap, high lift at relatively low attitudes can be obtained" (p. 1). The typical lift, drag, pitching-moment data, effects of the porous area, effects of suction, and comparison of theoretical and experimental flap lift ar… more
