Experimental Pressure Distributions Over Two Wing-Body Combinations at Mach Number 1.9 (open access)

Experimental Pressure Distributions Over Two Wing-Body Combinations at Mach Number 1.9

Memorandum presenting pressure distributions on two wing-body combinations obtained at a Mach number of 1.9 to investigate the wing-body interference. A rectangular wing, a triangular wing, and a cylindrical body with an ogive nose were studied alone and in combination. The pressure distributions over the wing-body combination compared favorably with theoretical calculations based primarily on a generalization of the method of Nielsen and Matteson, except at the root section of the wings where the boundary layer of the body modified the flow.

Lift, Drag, and Pitching Moment of Low-Aspect-Ratio Wings at Subsonic and Supersonic Speeds: Triangular Wing of Aspect Ratio 2 with NACA 0005-63 Thickness Distribution, Cambered and Twisted for a Trapezoidal Span Load Distribution (open access)

Lift, Drag, and Pitching Moment of Low-Aspect-Ratio Wings at Subsonic and Supersonic Speeds: Triangular Wing of Aspect Ratio 2 with NACA 0005-63 Thickness Distribution, Cambered and Twisted for a Trapezoidal Span Load Distribution

A wing-body combination having a plane triangular wing of aspect ratio 2 with NACA 0005-63 thickness distribution in streamwise planes, and twisted and cambered for a trapezoidal span load distribution has been investigated at both subsonic and supersonic Mach numbers. The lift, drag, and pitching moment of the model are presented for Mach numbers from 0.60 to 0.90 and 1.30 to 1.70 at a Reynolds number of 3.0 million. The variations of the characteristics with Reynolds number are also shown for several Mach numbers.
