Book Spin tunnel Investigation of a 1 30 Scale Model of the Fighter and Reconnaissance Versions of the McDonnell F 4B Airplane

Download or read book Spin tunnel Investigation of a 1 30 Scale Model of the Fighter and Reconnaissance Versions of the McDonnell F 4B Airplane written by James Scarboro Bowman and published by . This book was released on 1969 with total page 29 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An investigation has been made on a model to determine the spin and spin-recovery characteristics of the fighter and reconnaissance versions of the McDonnell F-4B airplane. Tests were made for the combat loading for a range of center-of-gravity positions. Tests were also made to determine the effect of externally mounted wing stores and to determine the length of towline needed to place the canopy of the spin-recovery parachute sufficiently out of the wake of the airplane for satisfactory parachute operating characteristics.--P. 1.

Book Free Spinning Tunnel Tests of a 1 24 Scale Model of the North American Xp 86 Airplane

This book was released on 2013-07 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A spin investigation has been conducted in the Langley 20-foot free-spinning tunnel on a 1/24-scale model of the North American XP-86 airplane. The effects of control settings and movements upon the erect and inverted spin and recovery characteristics of the model were determined for the design gross weight loading. The long-range loading was also investigated and the effects of extending slats and dive flaps were determined. In addition, the investigation included the determination of the size of spin-recovery parachute required for emergency recovery from demonstration spins, the rudder force required to move the rudder for recovery, and the best method for the pilot to escape if it should become necessary to do so during a spin. The results of the investigation indicated that the XP-86 airplane will probably recover satisfactorily from erect and inverted spins for all possible loadings. It was found that fully extending both slats would be beneficial but that extending the dive brakes would cause unsatisfactory recoveries. It was determined that a 10.0-foot-diameter tail parachute with a drag coefficient of 0.7 and with a towline 30.0 feet long attached below the jet exit or a 6.0-foot-diameter wingtip parachute opened on the outer wing tip with a towline 6.0 feet long would insure recoveries from any spins obtainable. The rudder-pedal force necessary to move the rudder for satisfactory recovery was found to be within the physical capabilities of the pilot.

Book Supplementary Investigation in the Free Spinning Tunnel of a 1 24 Scale Model of the Grumman F9F 6 Airplane Incorporating Only Flaperons for Lateral C

Download or read book Supplementary Investigation in the Free Spinning Tunnel of a 1 24 Scale Model of the Grumman F9F 6 Airplane Incorporating Only Flaperons for Lateral C written by Walter J. Klinar and published by BiblioGov. This book was released on 2013-07 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A supplementary investigation was conducted in the Langley 20-foot free-spinning tunnel on a 1/24-scale model of the Grumman F9F-6 airplane. The primary purpose of the investigation was to reevaluate the spin-recovery characteristics of the airplane in view of the fact that the ailerons had been eliminated from the flaperon-aileron lateral control system of the airplane. A spin-tunnel investigation on a model of the earlier version of the F9F-6 airplane had indicated that use of ailerons with the spin (stick right in a right spin) was essential to insure recovery. The results indicate that with.ailerons eliminated, it may be difficult to obtain an erect developed spin but if a fully developed spin is obtained on the airplane, recovery therefrom may be difficult or impossible. Flaperon deflection should have little effect on spins or recoveries.

Book Spin Investigation of a 1 29 Scale Model of the Republic Xf 91 Airplane with a Conventional Tail Installed

Download or read book Spin Investigation of a 1 29 Scale Model of the Republic Xf 91 Airplane with a Conventional Tail Installed written by Walter J. Klinar and published by BiblioGov. This book was released on 2013-06 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An investigation has been conducted in the Langley 20-foot free-spinning tunnel of a 1/29-scale model of the Republic XF-91 airplane with a.conventional-tail arrangement installed. Previously, tests were made on the model with a vee tail installed. The erect spin and recovery characteristics of the model were determined for the normal loading with the wing installed at various amounts of incidence. The spin investigation also included inverted-spin tests, spin-recovery-parachute tests, tests with the center of gravity moved rearward, and tests with external fuel tanks added to the model. In addition, several tail.modifications were tested, on the model in an attempt, to improve the model's spin-recovery characteristics. The results indicate that any fully developed spin obtained on the airplane with the conventional tail installed will be satisfactorily terminated if rudder reversal is accompanied by moving the ailerons with the spin (stick right in a right spin).Decreasing the wing incidence from 6deg to -2deg should have a beneficial effect on the recovery characteristics of the airplane. Recovery characteristics by normal use of controls (full rudder reversal followed by moving the elevators down) will be satisfactory if the wing incidence, of the airplane is -2deg. Installation of external fuel tanks (with or without fuel) will have a somewhat adverse effect on the recovery characteristics of the airplane, but if the recovery technique includes movement of the ailerons to full with the spin, the spin rotation will be terminated rapidly. Varying the position of the center of gravity within the limits indicated to be possible on the airplane should not affect the recovery characteristic

Book Free Spinning Tunnel Investigation of a 1 24 Scale Model of the Grumman Af 2s  2w Airplane

Download or read book Free Spinning Tunnel Investigation of a 1 24 Scale Model of the Grumman Af 2s 2w Airplane written by Walter J. Klinar and published by BiblioGov. This book was released on 2013-07 with total page 44 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An investigation of the spin and recovery characteristics of a 1/24-scale model of the Grumman AF-2S, -2W airplane was conducted in the Langley 20-foot free-spinning tunnel. The effects of controls on the erect and inverted spin and recovery characteristics for a range of possible loadings of the.airplane were determined. The effect of a revised-tail installation (small dual fins added to the stabilizer of the original tail and the vertical-tail height of the original tail increased) and the effect of various ventral-fin and antispin-fillet installations were determined. The investigation also included spin-recovery parachute tests.
