An Investigation of the Characteristics of an Unswept Wing of Aspect Ratio 4.01 in the Langley 8-Foot High-Speed Tunnel

Report presenting an investigation of the characteristics of a low-aspect-ratio wing at high subsonic Mach numbers in the high-speed tunnel. The wing model had an NACA 65-108 airfoil section, an aspect ratio of 4.01, a taper ratio of 0.498, and no twist or dihedral. Results regarding normal-force characteristics, pitching-moment characteristics, and drag characteristics are provided.
