Measurements of Aerodynamic Characteristics of a 35 Degree Sweepback NACA 65-009 Airfoil Model With 1/4 Chord Flap Having 31 Percent Flap Chord Overhang Balance by the NACA Wing Flow Method (open access)

Measurements of Aerodynamic Characteristics of a 35 Degree Sweepback NACA 65-009 Airfoil Model With 1/4 Chord Flap Having 31 Percent Flap Chord Overhang Balance by the NACA Wing Flow Method

Report of testing on an untapered 35-degree sweptback airfoil-flap model, representative of a wing or tail surface, with several 1/4-chord full-span flaps differing in aerodynamic balance. A plain flap, a horn-balanced flap, and a beveled-trailing-edge flap were compared to a flap that had a 31-percent-flap-chord overhang balance. Information about lift, pitching-moment, and hinge-moment characteristics is provided.
