For the 60 sweptback wing with aspect ratio of 5.16, the value of % at zero lift, which was the maxhmm value obtained, amounted to about half the due that would be axpected for a cmventiod ai“ (reference 1). . It may be noted that, according to the theory of refere

The pitching-mmnt results for the sweptforwclrd wing, homver, were different from those for the ewaptback wing. (See fig.

This difference in X/C, aa can be seen fram its application in the equation, may account for at least a part of the difference in the experinmental values of C, for the P . meptback and sweptforward xings having the same geometric properties

Such a comgarison (f igs. 11 and 12) shows, however, that at zero lift, the experimental and calculated values of are in qualitative agreement, and that because of the low magnitude of the values, the theory probably is suffic

15、wing conclusions: 1. In general, the trends of the effects of varying aspect ratio and sweep as given by available theory were substantiated in the present investigation. Both experfmsntd and theoretical r03ults indicate that the effects of aspect ratio and sweep on the pitching derivativas are Prov

Theoretical valuee of the damping in pitch, although samswhat hLgher in magnitude, were nearly proportional to the experimental values. 2. With the moment reference

As the sweep angle increased, however, 871 increase in aspect ratio caused an increase in the damping in pitch. With canstant aspect ratio, increa
