Thus, the early loss of lift of wing sections near the tip which resulted in the Urge variations in longitudi
3、nal stabil- ity was attributable igh angles of attack. Subsequent to the tests of reference 7 it was reasoned that the lift range for satisfactory stability characteristics might be extended to higher lift coefficients by increasing the range of usable lift of the sectians near the tip through an in
4、crease of the thickness of these seo- tions . Computations showed that the increase of drag at supersdc speeds due to the increased thickness of sections near the tip would be relatively Small. Canssquently, the mcdel used for the research reprted in reference 7 was alteredtoincmczatethicker section

Tests of.the wing were made in one of the Ames 7-by lce fences, of spoilers, of elevens, and of a leading-edge flap nn the low-spe

NOTATION All data are -presented as B f flap No corrections were applied to the data for the effects of model distor- tion or for possible effects of interference between the model and the tunnel floor or of-leakage through the gap between the tunnel floor and the ext
7、ension of the base of the model where it passed through the floor. These effects were discussed in reference 7 and were believed to have been small. An investigation was made to determine the effect on the wing pressure distribution of the leakage through the tunnel-floor gap. The results are discus

MODELDESCRIETION The model used in these tests, hereinafter referred to as the revised wing (figs. 1 and 3), was the model descrtbed in reference 7, hereinafter referred to as the original wing, with the twist and thick- r tested was a
9、semispan model with 630 sweepback of the leading edge, an aspect ratio of 3.5, and a taper ratio of 0.25 (ratio of tfp chord to root chord). The thickness distributfon of the tip section of the revised wing par- allel to the plane of symmetry was that of the NACA 0012 section. !Rm camber line of the
10、 tip section a3 the ci-L passed through the floor to support the model.

The results of tests of a semispan model of &twisted and cambered wing with the leading edge swept back 630 -showed that increasing the thiclmess with a small modification to the twist from midsemispan to the tip resulted in no improvement of t
13、he longitudinal characteristics of the wing at low speeds A reduction in the tip-leadiwdge pressure peaks was obtained with no improvement of tip lift chsxacteristics indi- cating that the ewly loss of lift of the tip, which rCesulted in the large variations in longitudinal stabllity,$as due more to
14、 spanwise - flow of the boundary layer than to local stall of the tip sections. !J%e change of thickness and twist had a negligible effect on the lcm+speeddrag ofthewing. The addition of stall and bouudary-lay&+ontrol devices had a COP siderable effect on the stability of the wipg. Upper-surface fen
15、ces on the inner portion ofthe yiq were nearly a$ effective as those near the , tip for controlling spamise boundary-lapr flow. Fences extending over the after 50 percent of the chord of the w$gprovided about the same improvement of wing stability as full-chord: fences. Addition of a . lead-age flap
16、 over the outer 0.22 se&span of the w+g with fences at 0.6 and 0.8 semispan resulted in a nearly limar variation of wing pitcwment coefficient with Uft coefficientup to a lift coeffi- cient of 0.7. Uppex-surface split flaps on the outer 0.37 semispan were ineffec- tive for longitudinal control at hi

18、dFng are not aplsye- ciably affected by separation. This lift coefficient corresponds apoximate3.y to the low-speed design lift, coefficient (CL = 0.38). . . - Provided by IHSNot for ResaleNo reproduction or networking permitted without license from IHS-,-,-NACA RM A50114 .- 11 The modification of t
