Abstract

Report presenting an analysis of a series of wing-body combinations in the 8-foot high-speed tunnel. The paper presents the results of an investigation of a wing-fuselage combination with a wing of unswept quarter-chord line, aspect ratio 4, taper ratio 0.6, and an NACA 65A006 airfoil section. Results regarding force and moment characteristics and wake and downwash characteristics are provided.
