Abstract

Report presenting an investigation in the 300 mph 7- by 10-foot tunnel to determine the chordwise and spanwise load distribution on a thin 60 degree delta wing-fuselage model with double slotted flaps and spoilers mounted on the flap. The results are presented in the form of lateral aerodynamic characteristics of the plain-wing and double-slotted-flap configurations and as normal-force coefficients and pitching-moment coefficients of the wing, vane, flap, and spoiler, sample pressure plots, sample span-load distributions, tabulated pressure coefficients, and tabulated section normal-force coefficients and section pitching-moment coefficients.
