Experimental Investigation of a Body Flare for Obtaining Pitch Stability and a Body Flap for Obtaining Pitch Control in Hypersonic Flight

Description: Memorandum presenting the effectiveness of a body flare as a pitch-stabilizing device and a body flap as a pitch-control device investigated experimentally at Mach numbers from 3.00 to 6.25. The basic test body was rotationally symmetric and consisted of a fineness ratio 3 nose followed by a fineness ratio 9 afterbody. Results regarding the stability of the flared body, effect of body flap on lift and drag, trim conditions, flow visualization studies, and comparison of theory and experiment are… more

Effects of Some Leading-Edge Modifications, Section and Plan-Form Variations, and Vertical Position on Low-Lift Wing Drag at Transonic and Supersonic Speeds

Description: Report presents information about free-flight rocket-propelled model testing to determine the effect of some wing geometry variables on low lift drag at a range of Mach numbers. Results regarding the effect of airfoil section, wing nose droop and nose flaps, plan form, and wing vertical position are provided.

Flow and Force Characteristics of 2-Percent-Thick Airfoils at Transonic Speeds

Description: "A two-dimensional investigation utilizing pressure-distribution measurements and schileren photographs has been made of the flow and force characteristics of slab-sided airfoils of 2-percent thickness at transonic Mach numbers. The airfoils had various combinations of elliptically shaped leading and trailing edges from a fineness ratio of 0 to 10. The aerodynamic characteristics and an analysis of the flow past the models are presented" (p. 1).

Pressure distributions on triangular and rectangular wings to high angles of attack Mach numbers 2.46 and 3.36

Description: Pressure distributions were measured over rectangular wings of aspect ratio 2 and triangular wings of aspect ratios 2 and 4 at Mach numbers of 2.46 and 3.36. The investigation includes some comparison of the effects of Mach number, Reynolds number, and thickening the wing root sections on the loading.

Experimental investigation of a body flare for obtaining pitch stability and a body flap for obtaining pitch control in hypersonic flight

Description: An investigation of the effectiveness of a body flare as a pitch-stabilizing device and a body flap as a pitch-control device over a range of Mach numbers. Experimentally defined increments in lift and drag due to flap deflection are compared at Mach number 5 with the predictions of generalized shock-expansion theory and Newtonian impact theory. Results regarding the stability of the flared body, effect of body flap on lift and drag, trim conditions, flow visualization studies, and a comparison… more
