Aerodynamic Characteristics at Supersonic Speeds of a Series of Wing-body Combinations Having Cambered Wings with an Aspect Ratio of 3.5 and a Taper Ratio of 0.2 : Effect at M = 2.01 of Nacelle Shape and Position on the Aerodynamic Characteristics in Pitch of Two Wing-body Combinations with 47 Deg Sweptback Wings

Abstract

Memorandum presenting an investigation at M = 2.01 in the 4- by 4-foot supersonic pressure tunnel to determine the effect of a series of nacelles on the longitudinal stability characteristics of a sweptback wing-body combination. Nacelle shape and position were varied on a configuration with a 6-percent-thick wing with an aspect ratio of 3.5, a taper ratio of 0.2, and 47 degrees of sweep at the quarter chord.
