DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Results are presented of an experimental investigation to determine the static longitudinal aerodynamic characteristics of a fin with an enlarged tip control and the hinge-moment coefficients of the enlarged tip control. The model was tested at angles of attack from -6 [degree] to 6 [degree] and fin tip control deflections from -20° to 20°. A 1/8-scale model of the Scout first stage, with a tangent ogive nose, was used for these tests. Basic data obtained include the pitching-moment, rolling-moment, and normal-force coefficients of the fin and the hinge-moment coefficient of the enlarged tip control.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →An investigation has been conducted in the Langley 4- by 4-foot supersonic pressure tunnel to determine the effects of wing and horizontal-tail vertical location on the aerodynamic characteristics in sideslip at various angles of attack for a supersonic airplane configuration at Mach numbers of 1.41 and 2.01. The basic model was equipped with a wing and horizontal tail, each having 45 degree sweep and an aspect ratio of 4. The wing had a taper ratio of 0.2 and NACA 65A004 sections; the horizontal tail had a taper ratio of 0.4 and NACA 65A006 sections.
