Report presenting a study of data from wind-tunnel investigations to determine the effects of thin chordwise fences on some of the aerodynamic characteristics of four moderately sweptback wings at a low-lift range. The fences caused no large detrimental effects on lift or pitching moment at transonic or supersonic speeds. Results regarding the increment of drag coefficient due to fences, effect of fences on the lift coefficient and longitudinal stability, and effects on aileron effectiveness are provided.

Experimental investigation of aerodynamic forces acting on body of revolution (NACA RM-10 missile) with and without stabilizing fins was conducted at Mach numbers from 1.49 to 1.98 at angles of attack from 0 to 9 degrees and at Reynolds number of approximately 30,000,000. Comparison of experimental lift, drag, and pitching-moment coefficients and center of pressure location for body alone is made with linearized potential theory and a semiempirical method. Results indicate that aerodynamic characteristics were predicted more accurately by semiempirical method than by potential theory. Breakdown of measured drag coefficients into components of friction, pressure, and base-pressure drag is presented for body alone at zero angle of attack.
