Transonic Wind-Tunnel Investigation of Effects of Windshield Shape and Canopy Location on the Aerodynamic Characteristics of Canopy-Body Combinations

Description: "Aerodynamic data have been obtained for a fuselage forebody alone and for canopy-body configurations consisting of four different canopies mounted on a fuselage forebody. Two of the canopies had the same shape and size rearward of the windshield but one had a "flat" and the other a "vee" windshield. The remaining two canopies were located at different body stations and were geometrically similar. The data indicated that the drag of the flat-windshield model was consistently lower than that of … more

Comparison Between Analytical and Wind-Tunnel Results on Flutter of Several Low-Aspect-Ratio, High-Density, Unswept Wings at High Subsonic Speeds and Zero Angle of Attack

Description: Memorandum presenting experimental flutter Mach numbers for several solid, thin, rectangular cantilever wings with uniform section properties, low aspect ratio, and high relative density estimated from the results of previous tests at zero angle of attack. The experimental values are considered estimates, rather than determinations, in the high subsonic speed range because in that range the amplitude criterion was necessarily arbitrary. Results regarding conservatism of standard analysis relati… more

Aerodynamic characteristics and pressure distributions of a 6-percent-thick 49 degree sweptback wing with blowing over half-span and full-span flaps

Description: From Introduction: "The investigation reported herein was initiated to define further the effects on the aerodynamic characteristics and load distribution of a thin, sweptback wing of a low-pressure blowing system and also to provide information on which to base a more thorough study of a complete airplane configuration."

Free-Flight Tests to Determine the Power-on and Power-Off Pressure Distribution and Drag of the NACA RM-10 Research Vehicle at Large Reynolds Numbers Between Mach Numbers 0.8 and 3.0

Description: Memorandum presenting an investigation of the effect of a propulsive jet on the drag and pressure distribution of the NACA RM-10 missile configuration at large Reynolds numbers that utilized rocket models between Mach numbers 0.8 and 3.0. Pressures were measured along the body, near the fin root, and at the base. Results regarding basic data, body pressures, fin pressures, and drag are provided.
