Abstract
Report presenting the effect of Mach number on the characteristics of the downwash and wake behind an unswept, tapered wing of aspect ratio 2.67 with full-span, 25-percent-chord, leading- and trailing-edge flaps has been determined from wind-tunnel tests. Results regarding downwash characteristics and wake characteristics are provided.
