Abstract

Note presenting pressure measurements on a triangular wing with an aspect ratio of 2 and an NACA 0012 airfoil section parallel to the center line. The wing angle of attack was varied from 4.3 to 48.1 degrees with the airspeed held constant at approximately 100 miles per hour. Results regarding chordwise pressure distribution, section lift characteristics, span load distribution, centers of pressure, and comparison of pressure data with force-test data are provided.
