An Investigation of a Supersonic Aircraft Configuration Having a Tapered Wing With Circular-Arc Sections and 40 Degree Sweepback: A Pressure-Distribution Study of the Aerodynamic Characteristics of the Wing at Mach Number 1.59
Description:
Memorandum presenting a pressure-distribution investigation of a wing of a complete supersonic aircraft configuration as conducted in the 4- by 4-foot supersonic tunnel at Mach number 1.59 based on the mean aerodynamic chord. The experimental life and drag coefficients were less than those predicted by linear theory. Results regarding section pressure characteristics, section characteristics, spanwise characteristics, and overall wing characteristics are provided.
