Investigation of downwash and wake characteristics at a Mach number of 1.53 3: swept wings (open access)

Investigation of downwash and wake characteristics at a Mach number of 1.53 3: swept wings

Report presenting the results of an experimental investigation of the downwash and wake characteristics behind two highly swept wings in a supersonic stream. Results regarding the rate of change of downwash with angle of attack at zero lift, variation of downwash angle with angle of attack, and wake are provided.

Tests of a small-scale NACA submerged inlet at transonic Mach numbers (open access)

Tests of a small-scale NACA submerged inlet at transonic Mach numbers

Report presenting the pressure-recovery characteristics at the vertical center line of an NACA submerged inlet of aspect ratio 5 measured in the Mach number range of 0.60 to 1.08 by the wing-flow method. Variation of ram-recovery ratio determined from measurements at the center line of the inlet with test station Mach number is presented for mass-flow ratios of 0.30 to 0.60. Results regarding the pressure-recovery characteristics and application of the data to fuselage installations are provided.
