Aerodynamic characteristics including effects of wing fixes of a 1/20-scale model of the Convair F-102 airplane at transonic speeds

Description: From Introduction: "Results from the tests in the Langley 4- by 4-foot supersonic pressure tunnel at Mach numbers of 1.61 and 2.01 are presented in reference 1. Reported herein are results obtained from the tests in the Langley 8-foot transonic tunnel of the model with no control deflections at Mach numbers 0.6 to 1.12 for angles of attack up to 34^o

Analytical determination of the mechanism of an airplane spin recovery with different applied yawing moments by use of rotary-balance data

Description: From Introduction: "These aerodynamic data were used previously in an analytical investigation of a spin recovery by rudder reversal, the results of which have been published in reference 2. Because of certain discrepancies in the rotary-balance data similar to those discussed in reference 3, some modifications were made to the aerodynamic data used in calculating the results in reference 2 and also the results in this paper; these discrepancies and modifications are discussed in detail herein." more

Analysis of operational airline data to show the effects of airborne weather radar on the gust loads and operating practices of twin-engine short-haul transport airplanes

Description: From Introduction: "The data for operations both with and without radar installed have been analyzed and the results are presented in this paper. Although these results are of limited extent, they provide a basis for early examination of any trends in the gust loads and associated operating practices which might be attributed to the use of radar."

Aerodynamic forces, moments, and stability derivatives for slender bodies of general cross section

Description: From Introduction: "The present paper employs an approach believed to be novel in slender-body theory and is concerned with developing formulas for the forces and moments as well as the stability derivatives for slender wing-body combinations."

An analysis of the errors in curve-fitting problems with an application to the calculation of stability parameters from flight data

Description: From Introduction: "It is shown in the body of this report that the solution to the error problem depends upon a more or less arbitrary definition, the only criterion as to the choice of the definition being the usefulness of the solution to which it leads. In this respect, it may be said of the method derived herein that it is not difficult to apply and appears to lead reasonable values of the errors."

An Analysis of the Effect of Structural Feedback on the Flutter of a Control Surface Having a Power-Boost System

Description: From Summary: "Such devices as leading- and trailing-edge flaps which are now in use on operational aircraft permit the attainment of maximum airplane lift coefficients, power-off, of the order of 2.8 (reference 1). Airfoil-section maximum lift coefficients as high as 5.5 have been obtained in wind-tunnel tests (see, for example, reference 2), and in a limited flight investigation airplane lift coefficients of 4.2 were obtained (reference 3)."

Analysis of plane-plastic stress problems with axial symmetry in strain-hardening range

Description: From Introduction: "A simple method of solving plane-plastic-stress problems with axial symmetry in the strain-hardening range for finite strains were developed at the NACA Lewis laboratory during 1949-1950. This method is based on the deformation theory of Hencky and Nadai (references 7 to 9), which is derived for the condition of constant directions and ratios of the principal stresses during loading."

Aerodynamic heating of aircraft components

Description: From Introduction: "The purpose of this paper is to review new and significant data which will be of interest to designers in determining the heating of these components. A comparison with existing theory to indicate its adequacy in each case is also presented."
