7、The present investigation was conducted to deter- mine the static longitudinal and lateral stability and control characteristics of a mockup of a light single-engine high-wing airplane. The present tests were made with various power and flap settings over a range of angles of attack from -4O to 24 a

8、nd over a range of sideslip angles of *8O. The tests at thrust coefficients of 0 and 0.14 were made at a tunnel speed of about 27.4 m/sec (90 ft/sec) giving a Reynolds number of about 2.8 X lo6. The tests at a thrust coefficient of 0.30 were made at 22.8 m/sec (75 ft/sec) giving a Reynolds number of

The tests were made at thrust coefficients of 0, 0.14, and 0.30 qhich represent a flight con- dition of low power or high speed (where the thrust coefficient approaches zero), best climb, and full power as in take-off or wave-off, respectively.

The lateral data have not been corrected for the lateral variation of the stream angle. It should be pointed out, however, that at least a part of the positive roll- i

21、ng moment noted at the lower angles of attack for most model conditions can be attrib- uted to lateral variation of the tunnel airstream angle as shown in figure 4. Calculations of section rolling moments using the spanwise variations of stream angle of figure 4 indicated that the total measured out

Summary plots have been prepared from some of these data to illustrate the general static stability and control characteristics of the model. Only the summary plots are discussed. Longitudinal Characteristics The longitudinal chara

33、cteristics of the model with various power conditions are presented in figure 44 for flap deflections of Oo, loo, and 30. As might be expected, increasing power results in an increase in lift-curve slope and maximum lift coefficient because of the increased slipstream velocity over the wing. This ef

34、fect of power on the lift characteristics is summarized in figure 45 where lift-curve slope and maximum lift coefficient are shown as a function of thrust coefficient. The pitching-moment curves shown in figure 44 are fairly linear up to angles of attack near the stall and do not generally exhibit t

35、he nose-down pitching moment at the stall usually associated with a straight-wing airplane. The curves of the pitching moment 7 Provided by IHSNot for ResaleNo reproduction or networking permitted without license from IHS-,-,-against angle of attack indicate that increasing thrust has little effect

36、on the longitudinal characteristics except for a nose-up trim change for the full-flap configuration. These effects of power on the static longitudinal stability are summarized in figures 46 and 47 where variations of the static stability parameter aCm/8CL are plotted against CL and T;, respectively

37、. These figures show that, in general, the level of stability increased with an increase in lift coefficient and that increased thrust coefficient caused a decrease in stability particularly for the flap-deflected configurations. It might be pointed out here that the model shows a high level of stat

38、ic longitudinal stability for the forward center-of- gravity location. The data indicate that the model would become no worse than neutrally stable with the center of gravity as far aft as 0.40E. The stick-free static stability characteristics , determined from the pitching- and hinge-moment curves,

39、 are shown in figure 48. The data show that the model had stick- free stability for the flap and power conditions tested. The effect of thruqt coefficient on the stick-free longitudinal stability at a lift coefficient of 1.0 is presented in figure 49. These data show power has a more destabilizing e

40、ffect with a full-flap deflection (fjf = 30) than with the lower deflections (6f = Oo, loo), and the model would have stick-free stability with the center of gravity as far aft as 0.4OF. The variation of elevator effectiveness with angle of attack is presented in figure 50 for flap deflections of Oo

41、, loo, and 30. These data show that the effectiveness is only slightly reduced at the higher angles of attack, and effectiveness is still maintained up to the stall. Presented in figure 51 is the variation of elevator effectiveness with thrust coefficient. These data show that power increased the el

42、evator effectiveness. Presented in figure 52 is the variation of the average downwash angle and the dynamic pressure ratio at the tail with angle of attack for the flap and power conditions investigated. These data show a large increase in downwash angle with flap deflection. Also, the effects of po

43、wer on the downwash angle are fairly large, particularly at high angles of attack and full flap deflection. Lateral Characteristics The variation of the effective-dihedral parameter C with angle of attack is lP shown in figure 53 for the various flap and power conditions tested. These data show that

44、 the model has positive effective dihedral (-Cd for all conditions to CLYmax. The values of C vary widely depending upon angle of attack, flap, or power condition which means the response of the airplane to gusts or to rudder inputs to raise a wing could vary with the airplane configuration and flig

45、ht conditions. IP The variation of the directional stability parameter C with angle of attack is “P shown in figure 54 for the flap and power conditions investigated. These data show that 8 Provided by IHSNot for ResaleNo reproduction or networking permitted without license from IHS-,-,-although the

46、 directional stability generally decreases with increasing angle of attack up to the stall, the model is directionally stable for all conditions studied. The effect of power on the directional stability characteristics is presented in figure 55 and the data show that, in general, power did not have

47、a major effect on the directional stability. The variation of the aileron effectiveness with angle of attack for sideslip angles of Oo and = 0, 0.14, and 0.30. These data show that, in general, the aileron effectiveness remains at a fairly constant level throughout the angle-of-attack range and is r

48、elatively unaffected by flap deflection, power setting, or angle of sideslip. The variation of rudder effectiveness with angle of attack for sideslip angles from 8O to -8O is presented in figure 57. These data show that rudder effectiveness is main- tained throughout the angle-of-attack range for al

49、l test conditions. The effect of power on the rudder effectiveness is shown in figure 58. The data show that power caused an increase in effectiveness with flaps up but had little effect with flaps fully deflected. The basic lateral characteristics of the model, as shown by the variation of the lateral coefficients Cl and Cn with angle of attack for Oo sideslip, are presented
