Wind-Tunnel Investigation of a Plain and Slot-Lip Aileron on a Wing With a Full-Span Slotted Flap (open access)

Wind-Tunnel Investigation of a Plain and Slot-Lip Aileron on a Wing With a Full-Span Slotted Flap

Report presenting an investigation of a slot-lip aileron and a plain aileron singly and in combination with an NACA 23012 wing with a full-span slotted flap. Static rolling, yawing, and hinge moments were determined and are presented for several angles of attack and flap deflection.

Wind-tunnel investigation of the effect of vertical position of the wing on the side flow in the region of the vertical tail (open access)

Wind-tunnel investigation of the effect of vertical position of the wing on the side flow in the region of the vertical tail

Report presenting an investigation of the air flow at the tail of a monoplane model in the 7- by 10-foot wind tunnel to determine the cause of the change in vertical-tail effectiveness with a change in the vertical position of the wing and with flap deflection. Results regarding precision, force-test data, dynamic pressure in the region of the tail, sidewash angle at the tail, and effect of component parts on sidewash angles at the tail are provided.
