Some Lift and Drag Measurements of Two Configurations of a Nacelle and Oil-cooler Scoop for the Hughes-kaiser Cargo Airplane

John H Quinn

Abstract

Report presenting tests in the two-dimensional low-turbulence tunnel to determine the drag characteristics of two configurations of a 0.0476-scale nacelle and oil-cooler scoop for the Hughes-Kaiser cargo airplane. The nacelles were found to have a slightly favorable effect on the maximum lift coefficient.
