Wing-nacelle-propeller interference for wings of various spans force and pressure-distribution tests (open access)

Wing-nacelle-propeller interference for wings of various spans force and pressure-distribution tests

Report presents the results of an experimental investigation made in the NACA full-scale wind tunnel to determine the effect of wing span on nacelle-propeller characteristics and, reciprocally, the lateral extent of nacelle and propeller influence on a monoplane wing. The results provide a check on the validity of the previous research on nacelles and propellers with 15-foot-span wings tested in the 20-foot wind tunnel and reported in technical reports 415, 462, 505, 506, and 507.
