Summary of Results Obtained by Transonic-Bump Method on Effects of Plan Form and Thickness on Lift and Drag Characteristics of Wings at Transonic Speeds

Memorandum presenting a summary of the effects of plan form and thickness on the lift and drag characteristics of wings at transonic speeds. The data was obtained during a transonic research program conducted in the high-speed 7- by 10-foot tunnel by the transonic-bump method. Results regarding lift, drag at zero lift, and drag due to lift are provided.
