Lift and drag coefficients for the Bell X-1 airplane (8-percent-thick wing) in power-off transonic flight

Description: Report presenting drag coefficients determined by the accelerometer method for the Bell X-1 airplane with 8-percent-thick wing and 6-percent-thick tail in power-off flight over a range of Mach numbers and lift coefficients. Results regarding the variation of computed lift and drag coefficients, variation of lift coefficient with Mach number, and effect of Mach number on lift-drag ratio are provided.

Flight Investigation of the Longitudinal Stability and Control Characteristics of the Douglas D-558-I Airplane (BuAero No. 37972) at Mach Numbers Up to 0.89

Description: Report presenting results and analysis of the longitudinal stability and control characteristics of the Douglas D-558-I airplane at a range of altitudes and Mach numbers. It was found that large and rapid changes in elevator deflection and force were required for balance at Mach numbers above 0.84 due to a sharp decrease in elevator-stabilizer effectiveness.

Pressure-distribution measurements over a 45 degree sweptback wing at transonic speeds by the NACA wing-flow method

Description: Report presenting measurements of pressure made over the chord of a swept-wing model at four stations along the span by the NACA wing-flow method. The model was an untapered 45 degree sweptback wing of aspect ratio 3.5 with 2-inch-chord NACA 65-210 airfoil sections normal to the leading edge. Results regarding the chordwise pressure distributions and spanwise distributions of section lift, drag, and pitching moment.

Investigation in the Ames 12-Foot Pressure Wind Tunnel of a Model Horizontal Tail of Aspect Ratio 3 and Taper Ratio 0.5 Having the Quarter-Chord Line Swept Back 45 Degrees

Description: Memorandum presenting an investigation to evaluate the effect of Reynolds number and Mach number on the aerodynamic characteristics of a horizontal tail of aspect ratio 3 equipped with a plain, sealed, full-span elevator. The line joining the quarter-chord points of the airfoil sections was swept back 45 degrees and the sections perpendicular to this line were the NACA 64A010. Results regarding the effect of Reynolds number and effects of leading-edge roughness and elevator-nose seal are provid… more

Characteristics of Four Nose Inlets as Measured at Mach Numbers Between 1.4 and 2.0

Description: Memorandum presenting the pressure recovery, mass flow, and axial force of four bodies with nose inlets measured at Mach numbers between 1.4 and 2.0 and angles of attack of 0, 3, 6, and 9 degrees. The drag coefficients of axially symmetric diffusers operating at the maximum mass-flow rates were calculated from schileren photographs of the head shock waves and frictional drag considerations. Results regarding open-nose diffusers and conical-shock diffusers are provided.

Comparison of Zero-Lift Drag Determined by Flight Tests at Transonic Speeds of Pylon, Underslung, and Symmetrically Mounted Nacelles at 40 Percent Semispan of a 45 Degrees Sweptback Wing and Body Combination

Description: Report presenting the effect on drag of varying the vertical position of a nacelle at 40 percent semispan of a 45 degree sweptback wing and body combination as determined by transonic flight tests at zero lift. Three nacelle positions were investigated: a pylon mounted nacelle, an underslung nacelle, and a symmetrically mounted nacelle. Results regarding total drag coefficient and maximum wing-tip helix angle are provided.
