Comparison between prediction and experiment for all-movable wing and body combinations at supersonic speeds - drag due to lift and lift-drag ratio

Elliott D Katzen, William C. Pitts

Abstract

Report presenting a method for predicting the drag due to lift and lift-drag ratio of all-movable wing and body combinations and all-movable wings in the presence of bodies at supersonic speeds. The method is used to calculate the factors for configurations at which experimental data are available.
