4、flongitudinal aerodynamic charac-teristics of an airplane model having a triangular wing. The wing hadan aspect ratio of 3 and the NACA 0003.5-63 section in the stresmwisedirection. Two horizontal tails were tested which had areas of either16.7 or 21.9 percent of the wing area. Each of the horizonta
5、l tails hadsm aspect ratio of 4, a taper ratio of 0.33, the NACA 0004-64 section,and no sweepback of the 50-percent-chordline. Tests were conducted withthe horizontal.tails located -0.10, 0, 0.10, and 0.20 wing semispansabove the chord plane of the wing at longitudinal distances of 1.2 and1.5 mean a
6、erodynamic chord lengths behind the moment center. The wind-tunnel tests were conducted at a Reynolds number of 2.5 miJJion at Machnumbers from 0.25 to 0.95.It was found that the horizontal tail was destabilizing at meratelift coefficientswhen located above the plane of the wing. When placedeither i
7、n or below the plane of the wing, the horizontal tail was stabi-lizing throughout the lift range. For the balanced condition, the dragincrement due to the tail was less when ”thetail was placed 0.10 wingsemispan below the wing chord plane than when placed in the wing chordplane. In general, the drag
