Abstract
Report presenting an investigation in the two-dimensional low-turbulence pressure tunnel to determine the aerodynamic characteristics of the NACA 8-H-12 airfoil section at four Reynolds numbers. The section lift, drag, and pitching-moment characteristics are presented for smooth and rough surface conditions. Generally, no unusual scale effects are present for either condition.
