The Low-Speed Lift and Drag Characteristics of a Series of Airplane Models Having Triangular or Modified Triangular Wings (open access)

The Low-Speed Lift and Drag Characteristics of a Series of Airplane Models Having Triangular or Modified Triangular Wings

Memorandum summarizing the lift and drag characteristics of a series of five low-aspect-ratio triangular-wing or modified triangular-wing airplane models. The series consists of three triangular wings of aspect ratios 2, 3, and 4 and two modified triangular wings of aspect ratio 2 with taper ratios of 0.20 and 0.33. The experimental lift and drag characteristics of the five models are compared with existing theory.
