8、C LONGITUDINAL AND LATERAL AERODYNAMIC CHARACTERISTICS OF SLENDER SHARP-EDGE 74 SWEPT WINGS By Edwin E. Davenport and Jarrett K. Huffman Langley, Research Center SUMMARY Slender sharp-edge wings having leading-edge sweep angles of 74 have been studied at Mach numbers from 0.2 to 0.8, angles of attac

9、k from about -4O to 30, and angles of sideslip from -8 to 8. The wings had arrow, delta, and diamond planforms. The study consisted of wind-tunnel tests in the Langley high-speed 7- by 10-foot tunnel and predic tions of the longitudinal and lateral aerodynamic characteristics by the theories of NASA

10、 TN D-3767 and TN D-6243. The results of the study indicated that the longitudinal characteristics as affected by planform and Mach number could be reasonably well predicted by the leading-edge suction analogy theories with the exception of the pitching-moment characteristics. With regard to the lat

11、eral characteristics, the present analytical method, although an improve ment over potential-flow theory, still underpredicted the effective-dihedral parameter for all three planforms. INTRODUCTION The advent of supersonic aircraft in recent years has focused attention on thin sharp-edge delta wings

12、 and has prompted many theoretical and experimental studies of the vortex-lift characteristics associated with these wings. A promising concept for the calculation of the vortex lift of sharp-edge highly swept wings has been developed at the Langley Research Center of the National Aeronautics and Sp

13、ace Administration. This concept, which is based on a leading-edge-suction analogy, has been applied to wings of various planforms in both incompressible flow and supersonic flow. (See refs. 1 to 3.) From comparisons which have been made between theoretical and experimental data, it has been found t

14、hat the lift and drag due to lift can be predicted accurately up to the point of vortex breakdown for incompressible flow and supersonic flow. Extension of the leading-edge-suction analogy to include the effects of subsonic compressibility has recently been made in reference 4 for arrow, delta, and

15、diamond wings. Provided by IHSNot for ResaleNo reproduction or networking permitted without license from IHS-,-,-The purpose of the present investigation was to provide a correlation between experimental and theoretical data for slender sharp-edge wings of arrow, delta, and dia mond planforms and to

16、 study the effects of sideslip angle. The experimental data were obtained in the Langley high-speed 7- by 10-foot tunnel over a Mach number range from 0.2 to 0.8.

The three interchangeable wing-balance-housing portions were also machined from solid aluminum and were bolted to the forward portion for a complete model. The wings were thin flat-plate airfoils with sharp tapered edges. TESTS, APPARATUS, AND CORRECTI

25、ONS The investigation was made in the Langley high-speed 7- by 10-foot tunnel which is a rectangular, atmospheric, single-rehrn wind tunnel. Tests were conducted over a Mach number range from 0.2 to 0.8, a nominal angle-of-attack range from about -4 to 30, and an angle-of-sideslip range from -8 to 8

26、O at a = 4 and cr = 12O. The approx imate variation of the test Reynolds number per meter with Mach number is shown in figure 3. Force and moment measurements were made with a six-component internally mounted strain-gage balance. Angles of attack and sideslip were corrected for sting deflection. Axi

RESULTS AND DISCUSSION In the discussion of the results of the investigation, the 90 trailing-edge configura tion, the 37O recessed trailing-edge configuration, and the 37O extended trailing-edge configuration are referred to as the delta wing, the arrow wing, and the diamond

29、wing, respectively. 4 Provided by IHSNot for ResaleNo reproduction or networking permitted without license from IHS-,-,-Longitudinal Aerodynamic Characteristics The basic longitudinal aerodynamic characteristics for the three wings at zero side slip are shown in figure 4. These data show no signific

30、ant differences in the lift and drag characteristics of the three wings although the aspect ratios are not the same. The lift curves show an increase in CLCY for all models f.or all Mach numbers above an angle of attack of about 5O. This nonlinearity is due to the lift contributed by the leading-edg

31、e vortex. The pitching-moment curves show that Cm, becomes less negative as wing area at the trailing edge is removed and more negative as wing area is added. Also, CmCY was seen to become more negative as Mach number increased. All three models exhibited about the same values of L/D for all Mach nu

32、mbers as can be seen in figure 5. The longitudinal aerodynamic characteristics obtained at a sideslip angle of 4 show the same general trends observed at zero sideslip. (See figs. 4 and 6.) Lateral Aerodynamic Characteristics The variation of the lateral stability derivatives CIP CnP, and Cyp with a

33、ngle of attack is shown in figure 7 for a sideslip angle increment of 4. The effective-dihedral parameter was positive (-Clp) for all models at all Mach numbers and was essentially linear with increase in a. This parameter was relatively unaffected by Mach number. The effects of trailing-edge modifi

34、cation on the side-force derivative CyB were minor except at the lowest test Mach number (M = 0.2). Values of CyP generally remained within *0.002 over most of the angle-of-attack range for all Mach numbers. The lateral aerodynamic coefficients Cz, Cn, and Cy as a function of sideslip angle were det

35、er mined for a Mach number of 0.4 and are shown in figure 8 to be essentially linear with sideslip angle for both a! = 4O and 12. Comparison of Theoretical and Experimental Data The method used to obtain theoretical lift and drag-due-to-lift coefficients was developed in references 1 to 4. The expre

36、ssion used to obtain total theoretical lift coef ficient (CL)t is (cL)= K sin a cos2cr + K, cos CY sinan Values of Kp and Kv were obtained by the method of reference 4. Comparison of the experimental data with data obtained by using this theory is made in figures 9(a), (b), (c), and (d) for M = 0.2,

37、 0.4, 0.6, and 0.8, respectively. Both the potential-flow-theory lift coefficient (CL)P and the total lift coefficient (CL)t which includes the theoretical vortex-lift effect, are shown. The theoretical results are in excellent agreement with the experimental results for the delta wing and in reason

38、ably good agreement for the diamond 5 Provided by IHSNot for ResaleNo reproduction or networking permitted without license from IHS-,-,- and arrow wings. Although the effects of Mach number are rather small for these slender wings, the experimental results indicate that the large vortex-lift effect

39、predicted by the theory are maintained up to the highest Mach number of the tests. The reduction of lift for the arrow wing and the increase in lift for the diamond wing at the higher angles of attack relative to the theory is discussed in reference 3. Comparison of theoretically and experimentally

COSQ!,)whereas

41、 the solid curves represent -(vortex plus potential). Some of the dis (CLf crepancy between theoretical and experimental values of lift are reflected in the drag due-to-lift curves at M = 0.2 and 0.4 where theory underpredicts drag for the arrow wing and overpredicts drag for the diamond wing. At M

42、= 0.6 and 0.8 the agreement has become better and there is less effect of planform. This same trend was noted for the lift curves (fig. 9). The long-dash lines of constant value represent drag for poten tial flow with full leading-edge suction (a. The increment between the -TA curves and the curves

43、for drag with total lift (CL)p + (CL),) gives some indication of the drag pen alty associated with leading-edge separation. It should be noted, however, that the pen alty is substantially less than that indicated by zero suction theory with vortex lift ignored. A similar comparison of these paramete

44、rs is made in reference 3. An attempt was made to predict the variation of Cm with . The results are presented in figure 11. The expression used to obtain the total theoretical pitching-moment coefficient is where (CN)= Kp sin ct cos Q! (CN), = Kv sin the method of reference 8 was used. Fairly good

45、agreement between theoretical and experimental values of Cm was obtained at M = 0.6 and M = 0.8 for the delta wing over the complete angle-of-attack range (figs. ll(c) and ll(d). A possible explanation for the poor agreement for the arrow wing is that there is insufficient area in the tip region on

46、which the suction near the tip can be converted to vortex lift. (See ref. 3 .) It is likewise possible that additional vor tex lift is produced on the aft extension of the diamond wing. Corresponding agreement for the arrow and diamond wings appears to show about the same trends shown for the variat

47、ion of CL with a! (fig. 9). Comparison of predicted and experimental values of effective-dihedral parameter IP is made in figure 12. The predicted CzP was obtained by calculating the rolling-moment coefficient at p = 5 for both the potential flow and the vortex flow and then combining the results; t

Values of CL) C, Kp, and Ay were obtained from a Wagner program (ref. 8).b/2 Although the theory consistently underpredicted the experimental results, the inclusion of the vortex-flow term does provide an improvement over the potential-flow theory. Whether this

49、 underprediction of the effective-dihedral parameter is associated primarily with inadequacies in the method of predicting the leading-edge-suction distribution or with the fact that such effects as redistribution of the potential-flow lift or vortex breakdown are not accounted for is not known, and further study is needed. 7 C Provided by IHSNot for ResaleN
