Effects of sweep on the maximum-lift characteristics of four aspect-ratio-4 wings at transonic speeds
Description:
Report presenting an investigation at transonic speeds in the high-speed 7- by 10-foot tunnel to determine the effect of wing sweep on the maximum-lift characteristics of a series of wings with aspect ratio 4, taper ratio 0.6, and NACA 65A006 airfoil sections. Testing occurred over a range of Mach and Reynolds numbers. Maximum lift coefficients were found to increase with increased sweep at lower Mach numbers but decreased with increase sweep at higher Mach numbers.
