The effect of high solidity on propeller characteristics at high forward speeds from wind-tunnel tests of the NACA 4-(3)(06.3)-06 and NACA 4-(3)(06.4)-09 two-blade propellers (open access)

The effect of high solidity on propeller characteristics at high forward speeds from wind-tunnel tests of the NACA 4-(3)(06.3)-06 and NACA 4-(3)(06.4)-09 two-blade propellers

From Summary: "Tests of two-blade propellers having the NACA 4-(3)(06.3)-06 and NACA 4-(3)(06.4)-09 blade designs (blade activity factors of 179 and 263, respectively) have been made in the Langley 8-foot high-speed tunnel through a range of blade angle from 20 degrees to 70 degrees for free-stream Mach numbers from 0.165 to 0.725 to determine the effects of high solidity and compressibility on propeller characteristics. The tests are part of a general investigation of propellers at high forward speeds. Results previously reported for similar tests of two-blade propellers having the NACA 4-308-03 and NACA 4-308-045 blade designs (blade activity factors of 87 and 133, respectively) are included for comparison. The results showed that the 0.06- and 0.09-solidity blades, although producing efficiencies of the order of 90 percent, were less efficient than blades of conventional solidity."

Lateral Stability Characteristics of a 1/8.33-Scale Powered Model of the Republic XF-12 Airplane (open access)

Lateral Stability Characteristics of a 1/8.33-Scale Powered Model of the Republic XF-12 Airplane

"The XF-12 airplane is a high-performance photo-reconnaissance aircraft designed for the Army Air Forces by the Republic Aviation Corporation. An investigation of a 1/8.33 - scale powered model was made in the Langley l9-foot pressure tunnel to obtain information relative to the aerodynamic design of the airplane. The model was tested with and without the original vertical tail. and with two revised tails. For the revised tail no. 1, the span of the original vertical .tail was increased about 15 percent and the portion of the vertical tail between the stabilizer and fuselage behind the rudder hinge line was allowed to deflect simultaneously with the main rudder" (p. 1).
