    Description: An investigation was conducted in a transonic cryogenic tunnel to determine the effect of varying Reynolds number on the boattail drag of several wing-body configurations. This study was made at 0 deg angle of attack at Mach numbers from 0.6 to 0.9 for Reynolds numbers up to 67 x 1 million (based on distance from the nose to the start of the boattail). Results indicate that as the Reynolds number was increased the boattail static pressure coefficients in the expansion region of the boattail became more negative while those in the recompression region became more positive. Results show that there was only a small effect of Reynolds number of boattail pressure drag.

    Description: An investigation was conducted to determine whether large Reynolds number effects occur on isolated boattails, including an analytical study and tests in a 1/3-meter transonic cryogenic tunnel. This investigation was conducted at an angle of attack of 0 deg at Mach numbers from 0.6 to 0.9 for Reynolds numbers up to 130 million. Results indicate that as the Reynolds number was increased, the static pressure coefficients in the expansion region of the boattail became more negative whereas those in the recompression region became more positive. These two trends were compensating and, as a result, there was only a small effect (if any) of Reynolds numbers on boattail pressure drag.

    Description: An investigation has been conducted in the Langley 1/3 meter transonic cryogenic tunnel to validate the use of cryogenic temperatures to achieve high Reynolds numbers in nozzle boattail pressure testing. Tests were conducted at 0 degree angle of attack and at Mach numbers of 0.60, 0.85, and 0.90 on two wing-body configurations with differing boattail geometries. Test data were obtained by using two different techniques, the cryogenic method and the conventional method, to obtain the same Reynolds number. Later, the test data obtained from the two techniques on boattail pressure coefficient distributions and pressure drag coefficients were compared; results from the comparisons show excellent repeatability for all test conditions and indicate no measurable errors when using cryogenic temperatures to achieve high Reynolds numbers for nozzle boattail pressure testing.

    Description: An investigation has been conducted in the Langley 1/3-meter transonic cryogenic tunnel to determine the effects of varying Reynolds number on the boattail drag of wing-body configurations at subsonic speeds. Two boattailed cone-cylinder nacelle models were tested with a 60 deg delta wing at an angle of attack of 0 deg. Reynolds number, based on model length, was varied from about 2.5 million to 67 million. Even though the presence of the wing had large effects on the boattail pressure coefficients, the results of this investigation were similar to those previously found for a series of isolated boattails. Boattail pressure coefficients in the expansion region became more negative with increasing Reynolds number, while those in the recompression region became more positive. These two effects were compensating, and as a result, there was virtually no effect of Reynolds number on boattail pressure drag.

    Description: Drag reduction benefits due to blowing the jet exhausts over the wing for a transport-type wing-body configuration were investigated in the Langley 16-foot transonic tunnel. A combination of a wing-body model and a powered-nacelle test rig was tested at Mach numbers of 0.50 and 0.80 at angles of attack from -2 degrees to 4 degrees and jet total-pressure ratios from jet off to 3 or 4 (depending on Mach number) for a variety of nacelle locations relative to the wing. The experimental results were compared with the predictions obtained from several theoretical techniques. It was concluded that positioning of the nacelles (nonmetric) can have large effects on the wing-body drag. Some positions yielded higher drag than the baseline position, whereas others yielded lower drag than the baseline position. The theoretical method which utilized a quasi-vortex-lattice for the wing and wing-jet interaction in combination with a jet entrainment model gave generally reasonable predictions of the drag increments.

    Description: An investigation has been conducted in the Langley pilot transonic cryogenic tunnel to determine the effects of varying Reynolds number on boattail drag at subsonic speeds. Six boattailed cone-cylinder nacelle models were tested with the jet exhaust simulated by a cylindrical sting. Reynolds number was varied from about 2.6 million to 132 million by changing model length and unit Reynolds number. Boattail pressure coefficient distributions show that increasing Reynolds number tends to make the pressure coefficients in the expansion region more negative and the pressure coefficients in the recompression region more positive. These two effects were compensating and as a result there was little or no effect of Reynolds number on the pressure drag of the isolated boattails.

    Description: An investigation has been conducted in the Langley 16-foot transonic tunnel to verify analytically predicted benefits in climb and cruise performance due to blowing the jet exhaust over the wing for a transport configuration. A wing-body model - powered-nacelle rig combination was tested at Mach numbers of 0.5 and 0.8 at angles of attack from -2 to 4 deg and jet total pressure ratios from jet off to 3 or 4 (depending on Mach number) for a variety of nacelle locations relative to the wing. Results from this investigation show that the induced drag for the wing-body (nacelles were nonmetric) was reduced for virtually all configurations. In addition to the experimental results, comparisons of the data with available prediction methods are included to show their validity and capabilities.

    Description: A variable sweep bomber aircraft model was investigated to identify modifications for drag reduction. Modifications included simulated two dimensional nozzles, staggered and extended nozzles; short, long, and no interfairings between the nozzles; partial and complete wing-glove fairings; glove-fuselage sidefairing; fuselage underfairing; and wing pods. The variable wing sweep and variable exhaust nozzles of the scale model are discussed.

    Description: A wind-tunnel investigation has been made to determine the effects of nozzle interfairing modifications on the longitudinal aerodynamic characteristics of a twin-jet, variable-wing-sweep fighter model. The model was tested in the Langley 16-foot transonic tunnel at Mach numbers of 0.6 to 1.3 and angles of attack from about minus 2 deg to 6 deg and in the Langley 4-foot supersonic presure tunnel at a Mach number of 2.2 and an angle of attack of 0 deg. Compressed air was used to simulate nozzle exhaust flow at jet total-pressure ratios from 1 (jet off) to about 21. The results of this investigation show that the aircraft drag can be significantly reduced by replacing the basic interfairing with a modified interfairing.

    Description: An investigation at an angle of attack of 0 deg was conducted in a 16 foot transonic tunnel at Mach numbers from 0.4 to 1.05 to determine the limits in Mach number at which valid boattail pressure drag data may be obtained with very low blockage ratio bodies. Extreme care was exercised when examining any data taken at subsonic Mach numbers very near 1.0 and lower than the supersonic Mach number at which shock reflections miss the model. Boattail pressure coefficient distributions did not indicate any error, but when integrated boattail pressure drag data was plotted as a function of Mach number, data which were in error were identified.
