    Wind-Tunnel Investigation of the Static Lateral Stability Characteristics of Wing-Fuselage Combinations at High Subsonic Speeds (1953)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-08-28
    Description: A systematic research program is being carried out in the Langley high-speed 7- by 10-foot tunnel to determine the aerodynamic characteristics of various arrangements of the component parts of research-type airplane models, including some complete model configurations. Data are being obtained on characteristics in pitch, sideslip, and during steady roll at Mach numbers from 0.40 to about 0.95. This paper presents results which show the effect of taper ratio on the aerodynamic characteristics in sideslip of wing-fuselage combinations having wings with a sweep of 45 degrees at the quarter-chord line, an aspect ratio of 4, and a NACA 65A006 airfoil section.

    Flight Measurements of Average Skin-Friction Coefficients on a Parabolic Body of Revolution (NACA RM-10) at Mach Numbers from 1.0 to 3.7 (1954)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-08-17
    Description: Measurement of average skin-friction coefficients have been made on six rocket-powered free-flight models by using the boundary-layer rake technique. The model configuration was the NACA RM-10, a 12.2-fineness-ratio parabolic body of revolution with a flat base. Measurements were made over a Mach number range from 1 to 3.7, a Reynolds number range 40 x 10(exp 6) to 170 x 10(exp 6) based on length to the measurement station, and with aerodynamic heating conditions varying from strong skin heating to strong skin cooling. The measurements show the same trends over the test ranges as Van Driest's theory for turbulent boundary layer on a flat plate. The measured values are approximately 7 percent higher than the values of the flat-plate theory. A comparison which takes into account the differences in Reynolds number is made between the present results and skin-friction measurements obtained on NACA RM-10 scale models in the Langley 4- by 4-foot supersonic pressure tunnel, the Lewis 8- by 6-foot supersonic tunnel, and the Langley 9-inch supersonic tunnel. Good agreement is shown at all but the lowest tunnel Reynolds number conditions. A simple empirical equation is developed which represents the measurements over the range of the tests.

    Streamlines in a Steady Flow (1966)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-08-17
    Description: The author states some tentative principles in the absence of an existence theorem of sufficiently general solutions of viscous fluid equations which could be applied by engineers. These principles are used for the characterization of the singular points of flow, which can be determined and identified by experimental engineers to solve a problem of fluid mechanics by a model.

    Summary of NASA Support of the F-111 Development Program (1966)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-08-17
    Description: The F-111 is a biservice, multimission, tactical aircraft being developed for the Air Force and Navy by General Dynamics and Grumman. The general arrangement of the F-111 is shown in figure 1. This aircraft, through the use of the "variable sweep wing" concept, offers the possibility of combining a wide range of mission capabilities into a single aircraft. The F-111 is a direct outgrowth of the Langley Research Center's variable sweep research which began in 1947. The early research culminated in the X-5 variable sweep research airplane which demonstrated the advantage and feasibility of in-flight sweep variation~ The X-5 utilized the translating wing concept to offset the longitudinal stability variation with sweep changes. Later Langley research beginning in 1958 resulted in the "outboard pivot" concept which eliminated the need for wing translation and led .to the TFX (F-111) concept. A chronology of the NACA/NASA variable sweep research effort and direct su~port of the TFX up to the awarding of the contract to General Dynamics/Grumman on November 24, 1962, is presented in refer'ence 1. Since the awarding of the contract, the Langley, Ames, Lewis, and Flight Research Centers have been actively supporting the F-111 development program. Because of the strong NASA interest in this aircraft and the large magnitude of NASA support involved, it was felt desirable to document this support. The purpose of this paper therefore is to present a brief summary of the NASA support, in chronological order, through December 1965, beginning with the awarding of the contract in November 1962.

    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-08-17
    Description: A wing-body combination having a plane triangular wing of aspect ratio 2 with NACA 0005-63 thickness distribution in streamwise planes, and twisted and cambered for a trapezoidal span load distribution has been investigated at both subsonic and supersonic Mach numbers. The lift, drag, and pitching moment of the model are presented for Mach numbers from 0.60 to 0.90 and 1.30 to 1.70 at a Reynolds number of 3.0 million. The variations of the characteristics with Reynolds number are also shown for several Mach numbers.

    A Parametric Study of the Aerodynamic Characteristics of Nose-Cylinder-Flare Bodies at a Mach Number of 6.0 (1965)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-08-16
    Description: Force tests were conducted at a Mach number of 6.0 on nose-cylinder-flare bodies to determine the effect of nose shape, cylinder length, flare angle, and flare length on the longitudinal aerodynamic characteristics. A particular investigation was conducted to determine the effect of flare angle for constant flare length, surface area, and diameter. Results indicated that at a Reynolds number of approximately 0.92 x l0 (exp 6) (based on body diameter), the boundary-layer separation effects were significant only with respect to the slope of the normal-force and pitching-moment curve at low angles of attack. The variations of the aerodynamic characteristics with the various parameters were, in general, similar to those predicted by Newtonian theory below a flare angle of 30 degrees and a ratio of flare base diameter to cylinder diameter of less than approximately 2.2. The limiting diameter ratio is consistent with the extent of the low-constant dynamic-pressure region near the body caused by the bow-shock influences as predicted by axisymmetric characteristic theory. The effects of the various parameters for the flares that exceeded the limiting diameter ratio follow the trends predicted by the computed flow-field properties. The axial force for these flare configurations at zero angle of attack was, in general, computed within 10 percent by using these properties. For a constant flare length and surface area the flare effectiveness increased with increasing flare angle; however, for constant flare diameter only the axial-force coefficient was affected by flare angle.

    The Effect of Nose Shape on the Drag of Bodies of Revolution at Zero Angle of Attack (1951)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-08-16
    Description: The subject of this paper is the drag of the nose section of bodies of revolution at zero angle of attack. The magnitude of the nose drag in relation to the total drag is very distinctly a function of the body design and the Mach number. It can range from a very small fraction of the total drag of the order of 10 percent to a very large fraction as high as 80 percent. The natural objective of nose design is to minimize the drag, but this objective is not always the primary one. Sometimes other factors overshadow the desire for minimum drag. The most conspicuous example of this is the proposal of guidance engineers that large-diameter spheres and other very blunt shapes be used at the nose tip. This paper will attempt to discuss both phases of the problem, noses for minimum drag and noses with very blunt tips. The state of the theory will also be reviewed and recent theoretical developments described, since the theory still remains a very valuable tool for assaying the effects of compromises in design and departure from shapes for which experimental data are available.
