11、 were made at several spanwise stations.The results of the investigation showed that reducing the flap span or wing aspectratio adversely affected the aerodynamic characteristics of the model which had fourengines located uniformly over the exposed span of the flap. The two-engine configurationwith

12、only the two inboard engines operating had about the same longitudinal aerodynamiccharacteristics as the configuration with all four engines operating. The spanwise liftdistribution of an externally blown jet flap is characterized by high peak loads, mainly onthe flaps behind each engine. There is a

14、STOL model. A previous part of the program (ref. 1)studied the effects of vertical and longitudinal engine positions, jet-exhaust deflectors, andleading-edge and trailing-edge flap geometry on the aerodynamic characteristics of anexternally blown jet-flap (EBF) model.

Dimensional characteristics of the model are given in table I.The aspect-ratio-7, full-span-flap model was the same as that of reference 1, and the ver-tical and chordwise engine positi

27、on was the same as position 1 of reference 1 (see fig. 3).A detailed sketch of the wing leading-edge slat and trailing-edge flap assembly is shown infigure 4. An NACA 4415 airfoil was used on the wing. The airfoil sections for the vaneand flap of the trailing-edge flap assembly were identical, and t

28、heir coordinates are pre-sented in table n. Flap deflections 6f of 35 and 55 were obtained by using separate6fflap brackets for each case. In all tests with flaps deflected, 5V = -.The engines on the model represented high-bypass-ratio fan-jet engines andcompressed-air-driven turbines drove the fans

29、. The basic engine is illustrated infigure 5.In order to determine the chordwise and spanwise pressure distributions on thewing, pressure orifices were located on the upper and lower surfaces on the left wingand flap at eight spanwise stations. (See figs. 6 and 7.) In tests of the model withProvided

30、 by IHSNot for ResaleNo reproduction or networking permitted without license from IHS-,-,-the reduced flap span and/or wing aspect ratio, only six spanwise locations of pressureorifices were used (1 to 6) because stations 7 and 8 were eliminated when the wing tipwas altered to obtain these configura

31、tions.The model was sting mounted on a six-component internal strain-gage balance inthe 9- by 18-m (30- by 60-ft) test section of the Langley full-scale tunnel.TESTS AND PROCEDURESIn preparation for the tests, engine calibrations were made to determine grossthrust as a function of engine rotational

32、speed in the static condition. These calibrationswere made with the engines mounted on the wing, bellmouth inlets installed, and trailing-edge flaps removed. The tests were then run by setting the engine rotational speed togive the desired thrust and holding these speeds constant over the angle-of-a

33、ttack range.Tests were made at zero airspeed to determine flap turning angles 6j and turningefficiencies 17 under static conditions. These tests and the wind-on tests were made at6f = 35 and 55.All wind-on force tests were made over an angle-of-attack range from -4 to 31at gross-thrust coefficients

34、Cn of 0, 2.05, and 4.10 for configurations having a wingaspect ratio of 7 and Cjj. = 0, 2.75, and 5.50 for a wing aspect ratio of 5.25. TheseCpi values correspond to the same thrust of the engines and differ only by being basedon a different wing area. The free-stream dynamic pressure for both the f

35、orce tests andthe pressure-distribution tests was 166 N/m (3.46 lb/ft2) which corresponds to an air-speed of 16.4 m/sec (54 ft/sec). The Reynolds number was 3.47 x 10 based on the wingchord.No wind-tunnel jet-boundary corrections were considered necessary since themodel was very small relative to th

36、e size of the test section.RESULTS AND DISCUSSIONStatic TurningSince the effectiveness of a jet-flap system is dependent to a large degree upon thecapability of the system for turning and spreading the jet exhaust efficiently, static turn-ing tests were made of all configurations included in the pre

37、sent investigation to identifythe relative performance of each. Results of these tests (see fig. 8) show there is very .little change in the jet turning angle due to changes in the aspect ratio of the wing and/orthe flap span. The ratio of the normal force to thrust Ff/T is plotted as a function oft

38、he ratio of net axial force to thrust -FA/T in figure 9. These data indicate that thelosses caused by turning and spreading of the jet were from 8 to 10 percent for 6f = 35Provided by IHSNot for ResaleNo reproduction or networking permitted without license from IHS-,-,-and from 35 to 40 percent for

39、6f = 55. The turning of the jet was better when thetrailing-edge flap was deflected 70 rather than 55 because the flap captured more ofthe jet engine exhaust. However, a trailing-edge-flap deflection of 55 instead of 70 wasused in the present investigation because the data of reference 1 indicate th

40、at undesirablelarge negative angles of attack would be associated with flight at 6f = 70.Wind-On DataFour engines.- The basic aerodynamic data for the model are presented in fig-ures 10 to 12 for 6f = 35 and figures 13 to 15 for 5f = 55. These data show that anincrease in thrust coefficient caused t

41、he usual increase in maximum lift coefficient andnose-down pitching moment.In order to show more clearly the effects of wing aspect ratio and flap span on thelongitudinal aerodynamic characteristics, the data of figures 10 to 15 have been replottedin terms of trim lift coefficient and drag coefficie

42、nt versus thrust coefficient C andpresented as figure 16. Comparison of the plots shows that there was little loss in trimlift coefficient with reduction in aspect ratio from 7 to 5.25 but that there is more thantwice as much loss in lift from reduction in flap span from full span to 0.75-span for t

43、heA = 7 wing. This comparison would suggest that there might be little lift carryover ontothe unflapped tip section of the wing. In order to investigate this point the data for theA = 5.25 wing were recomputed based on the area of the A = 7 wing. Comparison ofthe plots (fig. 16) shows that the unfla

44、pped tips added an increment of CL of 0.2 to 0.4(based on the total area of the A = 7 wing). Therefore, based on the area of the tipsthemselves, they added an increment of CL four times as great. On the basis of thisgross analysis of lift, it is apparent that the unflapped tips were causing an incre

45、ment oflift much greater than would normally be attributed to them.Presented in figure 17 are values of added circulation lift due to power CL r asa function of wing aspect ratio. These data were obtained from reference 2 for theinternal-flow jet-flap concept and from the present investigation for t

46、he EBF concept.The data from reference 2 show the increase in added circulation to be expected from agood internal-flow jet-flap system as the wing aspect ratio is increased. The data fromthe present investigation show, as expected, that the increase in CL r with aspect ratiois somewhat less for the

47、 EBF than for the internal-flow system.In figure 18 are values of CL r *or several different thrust coefficients and val-ues of ACL (incremental lift due to flap deflection) for 0 = 0 as a function of theratio of flap span to wing span. Also presented for comparison purposes are calculatedvalues of

48、AC from the method presented in reference 3. These data show that themeasured values of ACL at C = 0 are considerably lower than the calculated valuesfor a given flap span. The values of CL r fr the power-on tests are shown to varyProvided by IHSNot for ResaleNo reproduction or networking permitted

It should be pointed out that the results presented infigure 18 are not only a function of flap span and wing aspect ratio, but also of engineposition; and the present da
