Abstract

Report presenting an investigation in the transonic blowdown tunnel at Mach numbers from 0.63 to 1.41 to determine increments in lift, drag, and pitching moment of a sweptback semicircular air inlet installed in the root of a 45 degree sweptback wing. Results regarding internal pressures and inlet performances are provided.
