Book Synopsis An Investigation at Transonic Speeds of the Effects of Thickness Ratio and of Thickened Root Sections on the Aerodynamic Characteristics of Wings with 47© Sweepback, Aspect Ratio 3.5, and Taper Ratio 0.2 in the Slotted Test Section of the Langley 8-foot High-speed Tunnel by : Ralph P. Bielat
Book excerpt: Four wing-body combinations of the same plan form (47 degree sweep, 3.5 aspect ratio, and 0.2 taper ratio) were compared at transonic speeds in the Langley 8-foot high-speed tunnel. Three wings were 4, 6, and 9 percent thick; the fourth was 6 percent thick but, on the inner 0.4 span, tapered to 12-percent thickness at the roots.
