This book was released on 1967 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The results of experiments conducted to evaluate the longitudinal stability characteristics of a 1/10 scale dynamic model of a four-propeller tilt-wing VTOL transport are presented and discussed. The Princeton Dynamic Model Track was used to measure the static stability and the transient response of the model at wing incidences from 90 degrees to 40 degrees. The results are interpreted in terms of full-scale aircraft characteristics. All data are presented for a C.G. position of 90% MAC (the most forward C.G. position of the aircraft is 15% MAC) and the horizontal tail and flap program differ from those presently used on the aircraft. The transient motions at wing incidences above 70 degrees were similar and dominated by high speed stability and low angular damping resulting in an unstable oscillation of approximately a 9-second period for the full-scale aircraft. The responses at wing incidences below 70 degrees were more complex due to a rapid decrease in the speed stability from a large positive value above 70 degrees to a negative value at 60 degrees. The values of the speed stability for the aircraft determined by a detailed analysis of the data in the neighborhood of 60 degrees wing incidence differ from those obtained from a preliminary analysis of the data by the LTV Aerospace Corporation. Typically, at wing incidences between 60 degrees and 40 degrees the linearized static stability derivatives M sub u and M sub alpha were small, nonlinearities were evident, and the small amplitude linearized motion was dominated by a divergence. At 40 degrees wing incidence, indications were that the dynamic motions were becoming stable. (Author).

This book was released on 1962 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "An investigation of the aerodynamic characteristics of a powered semispan tilting-shrouded-propeller configuration has been conducted in the 17-foot test section of the Langley 300-MPH 7- by 10-foot tunnel. The wing had an aspect ratio of 2.67 (based on wing span of 60 inches), a taper ratio of 0.67, and an NACA 2418 airfoil section with a 15-inch-diameter shrouded propeller mounted on the tip. The test results show that large nose-up pitching moments are obtained at transitional speeds of about 40 knots and duct angle of about 70°. Decelerating flight procedures further increases in the nose-up moment. Ground proximity reduces the nose-up pitching moments. The large nose-up moments can be trimmed by use of duct-exit control vanes. The results show that unloading the duct (shroud) by flying at a wing angle of attack of 15° reduces the power required by about 30 percent at 50 knots. Duct-lip stall produces large increases in power required. The results in general show that full-scale aerodynamic simulation can be made with small-scale wind-tunnel models if duct-lip separation at low Reynolds numbers is avoided."--Summary.

Download or read book Investigation of the Aerodynamic Characteristics of a Model Wing propeller Combination and of the Wing and Propeller Separately at Angles of Attack Up to 90 written by John W. Draper and published by . This book was released on 1954 with total page 82 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report presents the results of an investigation conducted in the Langley 300 mph 7- 10-foot wind tunnel for the purpose of determining the aerodynamic characteristics of a model wing-propeller combination, and of the wing and propeller separately at angles of attack up to 90 degrees. The tests covered thrust coefficients corresponding to free-stream velocities from zero forward speed to the normal range of cruising speeds. The results indicate that increasing the thrust coefficient increases the angle of attack for maximum lift and greatly diminishes the usual reduction in lift above the angle of attack for maximum lift.

Download or read book Low Speed Aerodynamic Characteristics of a Large scale Model with a Thin Highly Swept 2 67 Aspect Ratio Wing Having a Cranked Leading Edge written by Demo J. Giulianetti and published by . This book was released on 1972 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The low speed aerodynamic characteristics of a large-scale model intended to represent advanced fixed-wing fighters have been investigated in the Ames 40 by 80 foot wind tunnel. The model possessed positive static longitudinal stability to nearly 28 deg angle of attack, the maximum tested, both with and without leading-edge flaps deflected. Lateral control with differentially deflected ailerons and a right wing spoiler simultaneously deployed as combined controls was only slightly greater than that with the differentially deflected ailerons deployed as a separate control without the spoiler. Measured lift and drag were in close agreement with that predicted by theory to about 14 deg angle of attack, including the prediction of lift due to 30 deg of trailing edge flap deflection. Estimated takeoff performance of an aircraft 4/3 the scale of the test model showed takeoff distances of less than 2000 ft.

Sleeman and published by . This book was released on 1949 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper presents the results of the investigation of wing-alone and wing-fuselage combination employing a delta wing having 45 degree sweepback of the leading edge, aspect ratio 4, and an NACA 65A006 airfoil section. Lift, drag, pitching moment, and root bending moment were obtained for these configurations. In addition, effective downwash angles and dynamic-pressure characteristics in the region of a probable tail location also were obtained for these configurations, and are presented for a range of tail heights at one tail length. In order to expedite publishing of these data, only a brief analysis is included.
