Wind-Tunnel Investigation at Low Speed of the Effects of Symmetrical Deflection of Half-Delta Tip Controls on the Damping in Roll and Yawing Moment Due to Rolling of a Triangular-Wing Model
Description:
Report presenting a low-speed investigation in the stability tunnel to determine the effects of symmetrical deflection of half-delta tip controls on the damping in roll and yawing moment due to rolling of a model with triangular wings. Triangular wings have numerous aerodynamic advantages, but it is difficult to obtain adequate longitudinal and lateral control with acceptable control forces when using them. Results regarding the lift characteristics and rolling characteristics are provided.
