The wing had a ratio of chord to propeller diameter of 0.6, a single slotted flap, an aspect ratio of 4.05 (2.025 for the semispan), a taper ratio of 1.0, and an NACA 4415 airfoil section. The data have not been analyzed in detail

7、but have been examined to observe general trends. A few such trends predominate. The basic leading-edge configu- ration had practically no stall on that portion of the wing immersed in the propeller slipstream at angles well above those corresponding to the peak of the lift curve for the high thrust

11、RODUCTION Most of the aerodynamic research that has been done on the tilt-wing propeller-driven V/STOL configuration in the past has been of an exploratory character and has been obtained with small-scale models. The interest in this type of airplane has now become so substantial, however, that ther

25、The tests were made over a range of thrust coefficient from 0 to 1.0, and for any given test the thrust coefficient was held constant over the angle-of- attack range by adjusting the propeller speed to give the required thrust at each angle of attack. from the angle required for zero lift to that re

The test Reynolds number, based on the wing chord length and the velocity of the propeller slipstream, was about 2.8 X 106 for thrust coefficients from 1.00 to 0.30. For the condition

27、where the thrust was held at zero, the Reynolds number was about 2.3 x 10 6 . The angle-of-attack range for the tests was approximately (the static thrust case) where the angle-of-attack range was Oo to CT, = 0 No tunnel-wall corrections have been applied to the data since surveys and analysis had i

For the basic leading edge, the wing-flow photographs show that there is practically no stall on

31、 that portion of the wing immersed in the propeller slip- stream at angles of attack well above that corresponding to the ped of the lift curve for the high thrust conditions corresponding to operation in the STOL range of flight (CT, = 0.060 to 1.00) and that, in general, the stall on the wing cent

32、er section coincides with the angle of attack for maximum lift for the low thrust coefficients (CT, = 0 and 0.30). Similar stall characteristics were also noted in the results of reference 1 in which the same model was tested with an extended Fowler type of trailing-edge flap with the same mode of p

33、ropeller rotation. The result of tests reported in reference 2 where only the propeller rotation was different (down at the tip) from the present tests the tufts showed stall starting at the wing root and progressing smoothly outboard onto the pos- tion of the wing in the propeller slipstream inboar

Evidently, the direction of propeller rotation which has the effect of increasing the angle of attack of the portion of the wing behind “upgoing“ blade causes this change in stall characteristics. That portion of the center section which is not in the slipstream does not appear to

35、be affected by the direction of propeller rotation. The use of the leading-edge slat on the portion of the wing outboard of the nacelle had virtually no effect on either the lift and drag or wing-flow charac- teristics - evidently because there was no significant wing stalling on the out- board sect

36、ion of the wing which might be affected by the slat. The inboard slat, however, delayed the stall of the center section (inboard of the slipstream) for all conditions tested; and it caused significant increases in the angle of attack for maximum lift and the drag at maximum lift at low thrust coeffi

37、cients (CT, = 0 to 0.60) where the center-section lift was an appreciable part of the total lift. The inboard slat did not, however, significantly increase the value of the maximum lift coefficient. The sharp break in the lift curve at stall for the basic leading edge at low thrust coefficients was

38、reduced to a gradual decline by the inboard slat. The full-span slat gave almost exactly %he same results as the inboard slat alone, as would be expected, since the outboard slat was not effective. None of the Krueger flap configurations gave any appreciable improvement in the flow on that portion o

39、f the wing in the propeller slipstream or in the force data over that of the basic leading-edge configuration. The inboard portion of the Krueger flap did, however, improve the flow on the portion of the wing inboard of the slipstream for thrust coefficients from 0.95 to 0.60, but for the low thrust

40、 conditions from 0.30 to 0, the Krueger flap did not have this effect since no stall occurred in this area for angles of attack up to maximum lift. CONCLUSIONS An investigation to obtain large-scale aerodynamic data and flow studies on a semispan wing for an angle-of-attack range from -20 to 900 for

41、 thrust coeffi- cients from 0 to 1.0 indicates the following conclusions: 6 Provided by IHSNot for ResaleNo reproduction or networking permitted without license from IHS-,-,-1.

43、 A leading-edge slat on the outboard wing section had virtually no effect on the aerodynamic characteristics. The slat on the inboard wing section had almost the same characteristics as the full-span slat. A full-span slat reduced stall on the inboard section of the wing and increased both the angle
