The results showed that when the cross section of a fuselage was changed from a circular to an essentially square shape, the location of the aerodynamic center for the wing-body combina- tion was moved forward.

19、h-speed 7- by 10-foot tunnel is shown in figure 4. The chord plane of the wing was located on the fuselage 2.00 inches from the plane of the fuselage center line (fig. 2). The fuselage nose and center sections could be rotated 180 about the fuselage longitudinal axis to place the wing in a low or hi

20、gh position. The complete model, consisting of wing and fuselage with or without tail surfaces, was attached to the supporting sting (fig. 4) by a six-component internal strain-gage balance. The model forces and moments were measured by the balance and recorded automatically. TESTS The sting-support

21、ed model was tested in the Langley high-speed 7- by 10-foot tunnel over a Mach nuniber range from 0.80 to 0.92. The Reynolds rimer (based on wing mean aerodynamic chord) varied from about 2.5 x 10 to 3 .O X 10 . The angle of attack varied from -3 to a maximum of 24O; but as the Mach nuniber was incr

22、eased, the mexhum angle of attack was limited by balance loads or available tunnel power. With the wing in the low position, tests were made with the circular, half- circular-half-square, and square fuselage shapes. Tests were made on the circular and square fuselage shapes with the wing in the high

23、 position. Static longitudinal characteristics were obtained through the angle-of- attack range at f3 = 0. During the longitudinal tests of the circular fuselage, only the horizontal tail was removed. In the rest of the tail- off tests, including the lateral parameter tests, the horizontal tail as w

The static lateral stability parameters were computed at each angle of attack by taking the algebraic differences between Cn, Cy, and C2 at the two a

The drag of the square-fuselage configurations near zero lift was, in gener

33、al, slightly higher than the drag of the circular-fuselage configuration, probably because of the larger volume of the square fuselage. The slopes of the pitching-moment curves against CL for circular- and square-fuselage models have been measured at zero lift and are pre- sented in figure 9. In gen

34、eral, the aerodynamic center moved rearward with increasing Mach nurriber for all configurations. The aerodynamic- center location of the circular-fuselage configuration (tail off) was from 1.0 to 2.5 percent of the mean aerodynamic chord more rearward than that of the square-fuselage configuration

35、except at the highest Mach number. The aerodynamic-center location of the circular-fuselage con- figuration with the tail on was about 2.0 to 3.0 percent of the mean aerodynamic chord more rearward than that of the square-fuselage con- figuration at all Mach nmibers. In reference 8, it is shown that

36、 the shape of the static pitching- moment curve is a primary factor affecting the dynamic pitch-up motions of an airplane. Examination of the pitching-moment curves of figures 5 to 8 indicates that at moderate lift coefficients, regions of decreased stability were present for all configurations inve

37、stigated. The pitching- moment curves of the circular-fuselage configurations (high and low wing positions) had less severe breaks than those of comparable square-fuselage configurations (fig. 10). The addition of the horizontal tail compensated a large part of the unstable breaks for both fuselage

38、shapes with the wing in the high position; the stabilizing effect of the horizontal tail was not as strong on the low-wing configurations. In general, the complete model with the high wing and circular fuselage had the most favorable variation of pitching moment with lift over the Mach number range

40、angles of attack above about 4. Comparison curves showing the variation of CyP, Cnp, and C with angle of attack at M = 0.80 are presented in figure 16. A decrease in the directional stability of the square-fuselage configuration resulted from the decrease in the increment of Cy due to the tail. From

41、 figure 16 it is seen that the square-fuselage configuration (tail on) became directionally unstable at a = 12. The value of Cn and the increment in due to the tail at M = 0.80 (figs. 16 and 17) were larger for the half-circular- half-square-fuselage than for either the circular- or the square-fusel

In general, for the three low-wing configurations tested, variation in Mach number from 0.80 to 0.92 produced slight improvements in directional stability characteristics. 2P P P CnP In the low-angle-of-attack range, fuselage cross-section shape had little effect on C .
