Effects of leading-edge radius and maximum thickness-chord ratio on the variation with Mach number of the aerodynamic characteristics of several thin NACA airfoil sections (open access)

Effects of leading-edge radius and maximum thickness-chord ratio on the variation with Mach number of the aerodynamic characteristics of several thin NACA airfoil sections

Report presenting a wind-tunnel investigation to determine the effects of leading-edge radius and maximum thickness-chord ratio on the variation with Mach number of the aerodynamic characteristics of several thin symmetrical NACA 4-digit-series airfoil sections. The variations with Mach number of the lift, drag, and pitching moment for a 4-percent-chord-thick airfoil section are not significantly affected by a change of leading-edge radius from 0.18 to 0.53 percent of the chord.
