7、it submitted for publication to the ATationa.l Advisory Committeefor Aeronautics. A summary of conclusions is givert at the end of the text.DESCRIPTION OF MODELSThe four elliptic cylinders, the smallest of which is shown in Figure 1, and profles of whichare shown in Figure 10, were each 62 inches lo

8、ng and 2 inches thick; their widths were .5, 6, 7,and 8 inches. The specified offsets are given in TabIe 1 and for each case can be derived from theequation of an eIIipse. All of the cylinders were of laminated pine, varnished, and then rerifiedby apphcation of their construction templates. After th

9、e tests, howeer, a few measurements ofoffsets taken on the plane table indicated that the modek were slightly unsymmetrical. The2 by 8 inch cyIinder had detachable end segments to fill up the space between the floor and ceilingof the tunnel during the pressure distribution test.In a second test seri

10、es adjoining end plates, Figure 1, w-ere used to detertie the end effecton two of the cy!inders. They were made from fairly plane galvanized-iron plate and measured24 by 24 inches.In Figure 2 the pressure colIector is shown inserted as a center segment in the 2 by 8 inchmodel. It w-as made of bronze

11、 accurate to 0.001 inch in the offsets. Its dimensions and the loca-tion of its 16 holes are given in Figure 3. The pressure leads, one running from a hole in the noseand the other successively from each surface hole, were each connected with -inch tubingwhich ran lengthwise through the strut to a m

The angle of yaw was varied from 6 to 20 by 2 inter-vals, the wind speed was held at 30 miles an hour, and the cross-wind force, drag, and yawingmoment were simultaneously meas

17、cylinder, which wasmounted vertically in the tunnel with extension end segments accurately in line and with thepressure collector inserted in the middle of its span. The difference of pressure between thenose and each of the holes aft of the nose wasdetermined successively. To do this all thesurface

18、 holes were plugged except one whichwas joined to one pressure lead, while thenose hole was joined to the other lead. Thewind speed was then varied from 20 to 70miles an hour, by 10 mile intervals, andthe cliffere.ntial pressure was measured onan alcohol .rnanometer having a 1 to 10slope. These meas

19、urements could be read inaH cases to within O.OO5 inch vertical ofalcohol, Thus the point pressure could bedetermined to about one-haIf of 1 per centfor speeds above 40 miles a-n hour; to withinless than 2 percent for the lower speeds. Theair speed was held constant to within one-haIf of 1 per cent.

The cross-wiadforce coefficient is increased positively at negative yaw and negatively at positive yaw

The drag coefficient for the infinite cylinder is less than forthe finite. aWith the cyhnders at 0 pitch and yawl the resistance and corresponding coefficients forvarious speeds are given in Table VIII and plotted in Figure 11.

28、linder was taken to be substantially the same as for a 62-inch segment of an infinitecylinder, as the increment due to end effect was small arndcould not be measured. On comparingthe four struts, it is seen that at high speeds the drag coefficient is not lowered by increase offineness ratio; at-spee

29、ds of 50 and 60 miles an hour, the models with fineness ratios of 3.0 and.3.5 have a lower cefficient than the 2 by 8 inch model.RESULTS OF PRESSURE DISTRIBUTION MEASUREMENTSThe differential pressure measurements made on the 2 by 8 inch cylinder are presented inTable IX, and their conversion from in

30、ches of alcohol on a 1 to 10 slope to vertical inches ofwater is ako given. Table X gives the point pressure at the se-eral holes found by subtractingthe differential pressure from the nose pressure. These data are plotted in Iigures 12 and 13.Table XI gives the point pressure in terms of the nose p

32、d is equal to about .6 the nose pressure. For speeds of 40 to 70 niles an hourthere is another point of zero pressure near the trailing edge and a positive pressure aft of that;for the lower speeds, a slight suction is still evident at the trailing edge. Figure 13 shows thatthe pressure at each hole

33、 varies nearly as the square of the velocity.The graphs of the faired values of the point pressure, multiplied by (70/ V)z to make themconlparable are shown in Figure 14= The integrals of each pressure graph, giving the elementsof the pressure drag and the summation of these or the resultant pressur

35、f Figure 17.It is seen that-the downstream push and the upstream suction vary as P. The upstreampush is zero at low speeds since the pressure did not become positive near the trailing edge of themodel at these speeds. The difference between the total downstream and upstream pressureforces, which is

36、the pressure drag, is seen to increase up to a speed of 35 miIes an hour and thendecrease.
