Investigation of the Longitudinal Aerodynamic Characteristics of a Trapezoidal-wing Airplane Model with Various Vertical Positions of Wing and Horizontal Tail at Mach Numbers of 1.41 and 2.01

Gerald V. Foster

Abstract

Report presenting an investigation in the supersonic pressure tunnel to determine the effects of various vertical positions of a wing and horizontal tail on the static longitudinal aerodynamic characteristics of a trapezoidal wing model. Results regarding effect of wing vertical position and tail-on characteristics are provided.
