Aerodynamics characteristics of 24 NACA 16-series airfoils at Mach numbers between 0.3 and 0.8

W F Lindsey, David B Stevenson, Bernard N Daley

Abstract

Report presenting an investigation to determine the aerodynamic characteristics of a group of NACA 16-series airfoils related in camber and thickness over a range of Mach numbers. All of the currently available force-test data for NACA 16-series airfoils obtained under the same test conditions in the 24-inch high-speed tunnel are presented.
