AERODYNAMIC STUDY OF A WING-FUSELAGE COMBINATION EMPLOYING A WING SWEPT BACK 63°- SUBSONIC MACH AND REYNOLDS NUMBER EFFECTS ON THE CHAR-ACTERISTICS OF THE WING AND ON THE EFFECTIVENESS OF AN ELEVON

摘要

A wind-tunnel investigation has been made of a semispan model of a wing swept back 630 having an aspect ratio of 3.5 and a taper ratio (tip chord/root chord) of 0.25. These tests were conducted to evaluate the effects of Reynolds number and Mach number on the aerodynamic characteristics of the wing. Included In the investigation were measurements of the effectiveness of an elevonused as a longitudinal control.
