Effect of Propeller Operation on the Pitching Moments of Single-Engine Monoplanes (open access)

Effect of Propeller Operation on the Pitching Moments of Single-Engine Monoplanes

Report presenting an investigation of the effects of propeller operation on pitching moments with particular reference to the effect of propeller forces, the field of flow in the slipstream, and the increments of lift on the wing and the tail. A procedure, directly applicable only to single-engine monoplanes without flaps, has been set up for predicting the effect of propeller operation on pitching moments as well.
