20、nw 3.)Change in span load distribution is beIieved to be animportant factor in wing-fuseIage interference. Boththe unqymmetricaI flow resulting when the fuseIage isyawed rind the flow over and under the fuselage con-tribute to a change in the Ioad distribution aong thespan of the wing.A region of in

21、creased pressure exists on the side ofthe fuselage toward the wind and a region of decreasedpressure exists on the down-wind side. The flow aboutthe wing wdl be modified depending on the position ofthe wing on the fuseIage. With the wing in the highposition, there wiII be an addition of lift on the

22、sidetoward the wind and a corresponding reduction in lifton the down-wind side. Thus a rolling moment shouldw.aultthat tenda to raise the leading wing tip. It isX seen that, with the wing in the Iow position, thehangein Ioading would be such as to produce a roIIingmoment in the direction opposite to

23、 that obtained withthe wing in the high position. With the wing in themidposition, this effect should be a minimum.An additional change in span Ioading is brought aboutby Iocal changes in wing rmgIeof attack caused by theRow over and under the yawed fuselage. With thewing in the high position, the a

24、ngle of attack of aportion of the wing near the fuseIage is increased on theside toard the wind and is decreased on the down-wind side. h opposite change in angle of attackprevaik with the wing in the Iovrposition; with the wingm the midposition, the change should be smaII.Thus, when the model is ya

25、wed, the two interferencefactors considered should give an increment of rollingmoment tending to raise the leading wing tip of a high-wing monopIane and to lower the Ieading wing tip of alow-wing monoplane. kmgitudinal position of thewing on the fuseIage should be an important factor inthe change in

26、 span loading just discussed because of thefuselage load distribution.The presence of the -wing exerts an appreciableinfluence on the flow about the fuselage. With eitherthe high-wing or the low-wing monoplane in yaw thewing acts as a motied end pIate, which should causean increase in lateral force.

27、 The presence of the wingshould also change the fuselage load distribution- Thusthe longitudinal position of the AU on the fuselageshould affect both the magnitude and the center ofpressure of the lateraI force and, consequently, themagnitude of the unstable yawing moment of the fuse-lage. The vorte

28、x field is apparently affected by inter-ference, which results in an induced lateraI flow at thetail. When the fuselage alone is yawed, vortices areshed at the top and the bottom of the fuselage aonwwhat like the tip vortices of a wing, the strength ofthese voitic= increasing with increase in Iatera

29、l force.U a wing is placed on the fuseIage in the high or the -Llow position, the lateral force should be incrertsedbecause of the end-plate effect and the vortices shouldincrease in strength. With the wing in the low position,however, the vortices shed from the bottom of thefuseIage are so affected

30、 by the wing that the iriducedIateral flow near the bottom of the fuseIage is greatIy,-reduced. SimilarIy, with the wing in the high position,the induced latemd flow is decreased at the top of thefuselage. These characteristics have been noted intiual observations of the flow by means of tufts-.L -.
