Wind Tunnel Investigation of Static Longitudinal and Lateral Characteristics of a Full Scale Mockup of a Light Single Engine High Wing Airplane

摘要

The model was a full-scale mockup of a light single-engine high-wing monoplane. Tests were made over an angle-of-attack range of -4 deg to 24 deg and over a sideslip range of plus or minus 8 deg at thrust coefficients of 0, 0.14, and 0.30. Control effectiveness and hinge moments were taken on the aileron, elevator, and rudder for a full range of deflections. Downwash measurements at the tail were obtained for the range of thrust coefficient and flap deflection. (Author)
