Investigation at high and low subsonic Mach numbers of two symmetrical 6-percent-thick airfoil sections designed to have high maximum lift coefficients at low speeds

Description: Report presenting an investigation at high and low subsonic Mach numbers of two symmetrical 6-percent-thick airfoil sections derived to have high maximum lift at low speeds. The high-speed portion of the investigation included lift, drag, and pitching moment measurements.

Force Tests of Three Thin Wings of Moderately Low Aspect Ratio at High Subsonic Mach Numbers

Description: Report presenting an investigation in the high-speed tunnel to determine the effect of leading-edge shape and section profile on the aerodynamic characteristics of two thin wings of aspect ratio 4. Lift, drag, and pitching-moment data are presented for a range of angles of attack and Mach numbers. Information about a third wing with an aspect ratio of 3, a taper ratio of 0.4, and a 4.5-percent-thick modified-hexagonal section are also provided.

A Meter for Timing the Flow of Very Small Volumes of a Gas

Description: "A flowmeter has been developed which combines a volume-time measurement of the flow, regulation of the rate, and a determination or presetting of the pressure head producing the flow. This meter is capable of accurately metering and controlling very small rates of gas flow within a closed system such as those required in a small capillary tube gas viscosimeter" (p. 1).

As Investigation at Mach Numbers of 1.41 and 2.01 of the Aerodynamic Characteristics of an 0.025-scale Model of the MX-1712

Description: "An investigation of the aerodynamic characteristics of an 0.025-scale model of the MX-1712 configuration has been conducted in the Langley 4- by 4-foot supersonic pressure tunnel. The tests were performed at Mach numbers of 1.41 and 2.01 at a Reynolds number of approximately 2.6 x 10(exp 6) based on the wing mean aerodynamic chord. The MX-1712 is a proposed swept-wing, jet-powered supersonic bomber aircraft. The wing is of aspect ratio 3.5, taper ratio 0.2, and thickness ratio 5.5 percent (str… more
