Aerodynamic Study of a Wing-fuselage Combination Employing a Wing Swept Back 63 Degrees : Effect of Reynolds Number at Supersonic Mach Numbers on the Longitudinal Characteristics of a Wing Twisted and Cambered for Uniform Load

John C Heitmeyer

Abstract

Report presenting a wind-tunnel investigation of the longitudinal characteristics of a wing-body combination with a wing with leading edge swept back 63 degrees. Lift, drag, and pitching-moment measurements were made over a range of Mach and Reynolds numbers. Results regarding the general characteristics and effect of Reynolds number are provided.
