Pressure Measurements at Transonic and Low Supersonic Speeds on a Thin Conical Cambered Low-Aspect-Ratio Delta Wing in Combination With Basic and Indented Bodies (open access)

Pressure Measurements at Transonic and Low Supersonic Speeds on a Thin Conical Cambered Low-Aspect-Ratio Delta Wing in Combination With Basic and Indented Bodies

Report discussing pressure distributions on a thin conical cambered low-aspect-ratio delta wing over a range of Mach numbers. Combinations tested included the wing in combination with a basic Sears-Haack body and a body indented symmetrically for Mach number 1.2. Results regarding wing pressure distributions, effects of body indentation on the wing pressure, body pressure distributions, and effects of body indentation on body pressures are presented.

Compressibility Effects on a Hovering Helicopter Rotor Having an NACA 0018 Root Airfoil Tapering to an NACA 0012 Tip Airfoil (open access)

Compressibility Effects on a Hovering Helicopter Rotor Having an NACA 0018 Root Airfoil Tapering to an NACA 0012 Tip Airfoil

Report presenting an investigation to determine the effects of compressibility on the hovering performance and the blade pitching moments of a helicopter rotor with a tip airfoil, a root airfoil, and twist. Results regarding hovering performance, rotor-blade pitching moments, rotor profile-drag torque, and a comparison with two-dimensional drag-divergence data are provided.

Free-Flight Investigation of the Drag of a Model of a 60 Degree Delta-Wing Bomber With Strut-Mounted Siamese Nacelles and Indented Fuselage at Mach Numbers From 0.80 to 1.35 (open access)

Free-Flight Investigation of the Drag of a Model of a 60 Degree Delta-Wing Bomber With Strut-Mounted Siamese Nacelles and Indented Fuselage at Mach Numbers From 0.80 to 1.35

Memorandum presenting a model of a 60 degree delta-wing bomber with strut-mounted Siamese nacelles, which was designed, with the use of a symmetrical fuselage indentation, to have a smooth average area distribution at a Mach number of 1.20. The results show that the configuration drag rise was significantly higher than that from the equivalent-body tests and area-rule theory throughout the Mach number range. Results regarding total drag and pressure drag are provided.

Transonic Investigation of Effects of Spanwise and Chordwise External Store Location and Body Contouring on Aerodynamic Characteristics of 45 Degree Sweptback Wing-Body Configuration (open access)

Transonic Investigation of Effects of Spanwise and Chordwise External Store Location and Body Contouring on Aerodynamic Characteristics of 45 Degree Sweptback Wing-Body Configuration

Report presenting an investigation to determine the effects of spanwise and chordwise external store location on the aerodynamic characteristics of a cambered 45 degree sweptback wing-body configuration at a range of Mach numbers. Information about the drag characteristics of the various configurations, lift characteristics, and longitudinal stability characteristics is presented.

Comparison of low-lift drag at Mach numbers from 0.74 to 1.37 of rocket-boosted models having externally braced wings and cantilever wings (open access)

Comparison of low-lift drag at Mach numbers from 0.74 to 1.37 of rocket-boosted models having externally braced wings and cantilever wings

Report presenting an investigation to determine whether the low-lift drag of a rocket-model airplane-like configuration could be reduced at transonic and low supersonic Mach numbers by reducing wing thickness while external braces were used to provide the necessary bending strength. The investigation was conducted with two rocket models of aspect ratio 3.04, and unswept braced tapered wings mounted on fuselages with the same fineness ratios and cross-sectional area distributions. Data was compared to a previous study involving a model with a thicker cantilever wing.
