Y. 10014 PREFACE TO DOVER EDITION The new edition of this book originally published in 1949 results from the continuing demand for a concise compilation of 'the sub­ sonic aerodynamic characteristics of modern NACA wing sections together with a description of their geometry and associated theory. These wing sections, or their derivatives, continue to be the most commonly used ones for airplanes designed for both subsonic and supersonic speeds, and for application to helicopter rotor blades, propeller blades, and high performance fans. A number of errors in the original version have been corrected in the present publication. The authors are pleased to acknowledge their debt to the many readers who called attention to these errors. Since original publication many new contributions have been made to the understanding of the boundary layer, the methods of boundary-layer control, and the effects of compressibility at super­ critical speeds. Proper treatment of each of these subjects would require a book in itself. Inasmuch as these subjects are only peripherally involved with the main material of this book, and could not, in any ease, be treated adequately in this volume, it was considered best to expedite republication by foregoing extensive revision. CHEVY CHASE, MD. June, 1958 v IRA H. ABBOTT ALBERT E. VON DOENHOFF PREFACE In preparing this book an attempt has been made to present concisely the most important and useful results of research on the aerodynamics of wing sections at suberitical speeds. The theoretical and experimental results included are those found by the authors to be the most useful. Alternative theoretical approaches to the problem and many experimental data have been rigorously excluded to keep the book at a reasonable length. This exclusion of many interesting approaches to the problem prevents any claim to complete coverage of the subject but should permit easier use of the remaining material. The book is intended to serve as a reference for engineers, but it should also be useful to students as a supplementary text. To a large extent, these two uses are not compatible in that they require different arrange­ ments and developments of the material. Consideration has' been given to the needs of students and engineers with a limited background in theoretical aerodynamics and mathematics. A knowledge of differential and integral calculus and of elementary mechanics is presupposed. Care has been taken in the theoretical developments to state the assumptions and to review briefly the elementary principles involved. An attempt has been made to keep the mathematics as simple as is consistent with the difficulties of the problems treated. The material, presented is largely the result of research conducted by the National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics over the last several years. Although the authors have been privileged to participate in this research, their contributions have been no greater than those of other members of the research team. The authors wish to acknowledge es­ pecially the contributions of Eastman N. Jacobs, who inspired and directed much of the research. The authors are pleased to acknowledge the im­ portant contributions of Theodore Theodorsen, I. E. Garrick, H. Julian Allen, Robert M. Pinkerton, John Stack, Robert 1'. Jones, and the many others whose names appear in the list of references. The authors also wish to acknowledge the contributions to the attainment of low-turbulence air streams made by Dr. Hugh L. Dryden and his former coworkers at the National Bureau of Standards, and to express their appreciation for the in­ spiration and support of the late Dr. George W. Lewis. CHEVY CHASE, ~{D.

The Forces- on W-mgs. The surfaces that support the aircraft by means of dynamic reaction on the air are called wings. An aircraft may have several wings which may either be fixed with respect to the fuselage or have any of several motions as in the case of helicopters or omithopters. Regardless of the type of lifting surface, its aerodynamic characteristics will be stronglyatfected by the shape of the wing section. The wing char­ acteristics may be predicted from the known aerodynamic characteristics of the wing section if the span is large with respect to the chord, if the Mach numbers are subcritical, and if the chordwise component of ,\relooity is large compared with the spanwise component. Thus the wing-section characteristics considered in this volume have a 1arge field of applicability. A complete discussion of the application of section characteristics to the THE 8IGNIFICANCE OF WING-8ECTION CHARACTERISTIC8 3 prediction of wing characteristics is beyond the scope of this work, but some indication of the methods is given for the case of the monoplane wing in steady straight flight without roll or sideslip. The monoplane wing supports the airplane by means of "a.lift force generated by the motion through the air. This lift is defined as the com­ ponent of force acting in the plane of symmetry in & direction perpendicular .12 2.4 J 40 I .KJ 20 I I .08 1.6 I/ II ~ I " r I ~ V" ~ ~ 'CL ~ J'I I ....... o 0 0 ',­ /, ~D '-/0 ~~ i' JV f' ~ -­ o ~, ~ 8 16 Angle of t1fIack,~.".. 24 FIG. 1. Typical wing characteristics. to the line of flight. In addition to the lift, a force directly opposing the motion of the wing through the air is always present and is called the "drag." For a given attitude of geometrically similar wings, the forces ten.d to vary directly with the density of the air, the wing area, and the square -of the speed. It is accordingly convenient to express these forces in terms of nondimensional coefficients that are functions primarily of the attitude of_the wing. The lift and drag are given by the following ex­ pressjons: ~pV28CL (1.1) D == ~pVJ8CD (1.2) L == The lift and drag forces may be considered. to act at a fixed point with respect to the wing. A complete specification of the forces acting on the 4 THEORY OF WING SECTIONS wing requires a knowledge of the moment about this fixed point. For a symmetrical wing moving. with translation only in the plane of symmetry, the side force perpendicular to the lift and drag is equal to zero, and the moment acts in the plane of symmetry. This moment tends to change 1.4 ~ 1.2 ~ r--.. r" jA~ VV / 1.0 .8 ~ V V ~/ / V ~ ~ o V FIG. V ~ ~/ ~ /t V V VI V ~ ~ V 6. -.2 ~ A ~ ~ ~ r ~ II.

It is accordingly called the ., pitching moment" and may be expressed as follows: (1.3) ..~ convenient way of describing the aerodynamic characteristics of a wing is to plot the values of the coefficients against the angle of attack, which is the angle bet,veen the plane of the wing and the direction of motion. Such a plot is shown in Fig. 1. The lift coefficient increases .ilinost linearly with angle of attack until a maximum value is reached, whereupon the wing is said to U stall." The drag coefficient has a minimum value at a low lift coefficient, and the shape of the curve is approximately parabolic at angles of attack below the stall. H the point about which THE SIGNIFICANCE OF WING-BECTION CHARACTERISTICS 5 the moment is taken is properly chosen (the aerodynamic center), the moment coefficient is essentially constant up to maximum lift. A measure of the efficiency of the wing as a lifting surface is given by the lift-drag 1.4 j 1.0 A~ / ~V' V V V '/ / ~ I FIG. ~ ·It:/~ / (.)......6 -.2 ~~ V .8 o ------ -- A 1.2 1\~ V ~ V" w~ V V v / '>: ~ V V V Y --- ~ ~ V - V i/ r---.....

This ratio increases from zero at zero lift to a maximum value at a moderate lift coefficient, after which it decreases relatively slowly as the angle of attack is further increased. It is desirable for the wing to have the smallest possible drag. Inas­ much as the high-speed lift coefficient is usually substantially less than that corresponding to -the best lift-drag ratio, one of the best ways of reducing the wing drag is to reduce the wing area. This reduction of area is usually limited by considerations of stalling speed or maneuverability. These considerations are directly influenced by the maximum lift coeffi­ cient obtainable. The wing should therefore have a high maximum lift 6 THEORY OF WING 8ECTION8 coefficient.combined with low drag coefficients for high-speed and cruising flight. This combination of desirable qualities can be obtained only to a limited extent by a single wing configuration. It is therefore customary to use some retractable device such as flaps to improve the maximum lift characteristics of the wing. 1.3. Effect of Aspect Ratio. Aspect ratio is defined as the ratio of the span squared to the wing area (IJI/S), which reduces to the ratio of the 1.4 .. 1.2 . . 0 -6 o 1.0 0 eJ~ ."\ c lA+ .8 ~.

Early wind-tunnel investigations of wing characteristics showed that the rates of change of the lift and drag coefficients with angle of attack were strongly affected by the aspect ratio of the model. Wings of high aspect ratio were ob­ served to have higher lift-curve slopes and lower drag coefficients at high lift coefficients than wings of low aspect ratio. The effect 9£ aspect ratio on the lift curve is shown in Fig. 2.88 The wings of various aspect ratios are shown to have about the same angle of attack at zero lift, but the slope of the lift curve increases prograNively with increase of aspect THE SIGNIFICANCB OF WING-8ECTION CHARACTERI8TICS 7 ratio. The effect of aspect ratio on the drag coefficient is shown in Fig.3.88 Although the drag coefficients for all the models of various aspect ratios are substantially equal at zero lift, marked reductions in the drag 1.4 1.2 •• A 0 1.0 • 0 •- 0 • ~ of ... 6 0 D .8 + • :» • A C 411 + -2 0 a~ A ~t - - -3 o -4 c· o· • -5 I-- at e -6 b e -7 til • .2 I ~41~ ~ - J, 11 o -.2 • ~ '·1) ftA 0 • 0 • .I .2 Drag coefficienfl Cd FIG.

As a result of such observations, the Lanchester-Prandtl wing theory was developed. This theory shows that, for wings having elliptical span­ wise distributions of lift, the following simple expressions relate the drag 8 THEORY OF WING SECTIONS coefficients and angles of attack as functions of aspect ratio at constant lift coefficients 1 1) + C (-!.. _!)

Application of Eqs. (1.4) and (1.5) to reduce the data of Figs. 2 and 3 to an aspect ratio of five results in the data of Figs. 4 and 5.88 These figures show that the characteristics of a wing of one aspect ratio may be pre­ dicted with considerable accuracy from data obtained from tests of a wing of widely different aspect ratio. Equations (1.4) and (1.5) may be simplified by the concept of infinite aspect ratio. If Cd and ao indicate the drag coefficient and angle of attack of a wing of infinite aspect ratio, the characteristics of an elliptical wing of aspect ratio A may be expressed as (1.6) (1.7) A wing of infinite aspect ratio would have the same flow pattern in all planes perpendicular to the span. In other words, there would be no components of flow along the span, and the flow over the wing section would be two-dimensional, Infinite aspect ratio characteristics are ac­ cordingly commonly called "section characteristics. II The section char­ acteristics are intrinsically associated with the shape of the wing sections as contrasted with 'ling characteristics, which are strongly affected by the wing plan form. The detailed study of wings is greatly simplified by tile concept of wing-section characteristics because wing theory offers a method for obtaining the properties of wings of arbitrary plan form from a summation of the characteristics of the component sections. 1.4. Application of Section nata to Monoplane Vmgs. a. Basic Con­ cepts of Lifting-line Theory. The simplest three-dimensional wing theory is that based on the concept of the lifting line. 88, ~ In this theory the wing is replaced by a straight line. The circulation about the wing associated with the lift is replaced by ~ vortex filament. This vortex filament lies along the straight line; and, at each spanwise station, the strength of the vortex is proportional to the local intensity of the lift. According to Helm­ holtz's theorem, a vortex filament cannot terminate in the fluid. The variation of vortex strength along the straight line is therefore assumed to THE SIGNIFICANCE OF WING-BECTION CHARACTERISTICS 9 result from superposition of a number of horseshoe-shaped vortices, as shown in Fig. 6. The portions of the vortices lying along the span are called the" bound vortices." The portions of the vortices extending down­ stream indefinitely are called the" trailing vortices." The effect of trailing vortices corresponding to a positive lift is to induce a downward component of velocity at and behind the wing. This down­ ward component is called the U downwash." The magnitude of the down­ wash at any section along the span is equal to the sum of the effects of all the trailing vortices along the entire span. The effect of the downwash FIG. 6. Vortex pattern representing a lifting wing. is to change the relative direction of the air stream over the section. The section is assumed to have the same aerodynamic characteristics with re­ spect to the rotated air stream as it has in normal two-dimensional flow, The rotation of the flow effectively reduces the angle of attack. Inasmuch as the downwash is proportional to the lift coefficient, the effect of the trailing vortices is to reduce tile slope of the lift curve. The rotation of the flow also causes a corresponding rotation of the lift vector to produce a drag component in the direction of motion. This induced-drag coeffi­ cient varies as the square of the lift coefficient because the amount of rotation and the magnitude of the lift vector increase simultaneously. The problem of evaluating the downwash at each point is difficult be­ cause of the interrelation of the downwash, lift distribution, and plan form. A comparatively simple solution was obtained by Prandtl'" for an elliptical lift distribution. In this case the downwash is constant between the wing tips and the induced drag is less than that for any other type of lift dis­ tribution. Equations (1.6) and (1.7) give the relation between the section and wing characteristics for an elliptical lift distribution. b. Solutions for Linear Lift Curves. Glauert" applied a Fourier series analysis to the problem and developed methods for obtaining solutions for wings of any plan form and twist. Anderson 10 applied Glauert's methods THEORY OF WING SECTIONS 10 to the determination of the characteristics of wings with a wide range of aspect ratio and straight taper and with a linear spanwise variation of twist. Anderson considered the spanwise lift distribution for any typical wing to consist of two parts. One part, called the U basic distribution" , is the distribution that depends principally on the twist of the wing and occurs when the total lift of the wing is zero; it does not change with the angle of attack of the wing. The second part of the lift distribution, called the additional distribution," is the lift due to change of the wing angle I( 120 ~ 10-­ r--.. -­ ~ - .........,; ~ r--..-l r--­ ~- la c­ ~~ .... ~ ~-. ~ r-..... r-, r-; "-­ <, ........ r-, ~ I ' "' ~ "" r-,"-.

A typical distribution of lift over the semispan of a twisted, tapered wing at a moderately high lift coefficient"is shown in Fig. 7. Anderson presented his solutions in the form of tables and charts that are easy to apply. In order to apply these solutions the wing geometry must be known in the following terms: 8 wing area II span A aspect ratio c,/e. taper ratio where Cc is the tip chord and c. is the root chord E aerodynamic twist in degrees from root to tip, measured between the sero lift directions of the center and tip sections, positive for wash in fj angle of sweepback., measured between the lateral axis aDd a line through the aerodynamic centers of the wing sectiODS Go section lift-eurve slope THE SIGNIFICANCB OF WING-8ECTION CHARACTERISTICS 11 effective lift..curve slope, 04/B B Jones" edge-velocity factor, equals ratio of the semiperimeter of the wing under consideration to the span of the wing CIe c.. section-moment coefficient about the aerodynamic center e chord at any spanwise station Anderson considered only the case of a linear distribution of twist between the center section and the tip. The types of fairing ordinarily used for wings result in nonlinear distributions of twist if the wing is tapered. The departure from the assumed linear distribution may not be negligible if appreciable twist is combined with a large taper ratio. The data required to find the span'vise lift distribution are given in Tables 1 and 2. The basic and additional loading coefficients L b and La are presented at various spanwise stations for a wide range of aspect ratio and taper ratio. The local basic section lift coefficient Cl, for a wing lift coefficient equal to zero is given by the expression Ea,$ Cit == Ci) Lb The local additional section lift coefficient c,.. for a wing lift coefficient equal to unity is given by the expression S == Cb La C,•• The actual or total local section lift coefficient C, for a wing lift coefficient equal to C L is obtained from c, == c,. + CV; lea The lift-curve slope per degree a of the wing is obtained from a;IIK J 1 a. + (57.3a./ ...A ) where the effective section lift-curve slope a~ is taken as the average for the sections composing the wing and the factor J is given in Fig. 8 on page 16. The Jones edge-velocity correctionj" which had not been derived when Anderson!O obtained these results, has boon applied to Anderson's formulas by the use of an effective section lift-curve slope. This effective slope a. equals ao/E where E is· the ratio of the semiperimeter to the span of the wing under consideration. It will be noted that this effective lift-curve slope is not solely a property of the section but that it varies with the plan form of the" wing.

The maximum lift coefficient-for the wing may be estimated from the assumption that this coefficient is reached when the local section lift c0­ efficient at any position along the span is equal to the local maximum lift coefficient for the corresponding section. This value may be found con­ veniently by the process indicated by Fig. 16. Spanwise variations of the local maximum lift coefficient Cz..a, and of the additional c~ and basic c" lift distributions are plotted. The spanwise variation of Clmax - Cit is then plotted. The minimum value of the ratio Cr..s - Cit Clea is then found. The minimum value of this ratio is considered to be the maximum lift coefficient of the wing. c. Generalized Solution.

The applicability of section data. to the prediction of the aerodynamic characteristics of wings is limited by the simplifying assumptions made in the development of wing theory. It is assumed, for instance, that each section acts independently of its neigh­ boring sections except for the induced downwash. Strict compliance with this assumption would require two-dimensional flow, that is, no variation of section, chord, or lift along the span. Such spanwise variations result in spanwise components of flow. H these components are small, the sections act nearly independently. Com­ paratively small spanwise variations of pressure, however, tend to produce large crossflows in the boundary layer. The air adjacent to the surface has lost most of its momentum and therefore tends to flow directly toward the region of lowest pressure rather than in the stream direction. These crossflows become particularly marked under conditions approaching sep­ aration. The flow of this low-energy air from one section to another tends to delay separation in some places and to promote it in others, with the result that the lying characteristics may depart seriously from the cal­ culated ones. In the development of the lifting-line theory, it was assumed that the effect of the trailing vortices was to change the local angle of attack, neglecting any change of downwash along the chord of the section. This variation of downwash is not negligible for sections close to a strong trailing vortex. Strong concentrations of the trailing vortices are obtained when­ ever a large span'vise variation of lift OCCUI'S. Consequently the sections are operating in a curved as well. as a rotated flow field whenever the span­ wise variation of lift is not small. This curved flow field may be interpreted as an effective change in camber which is not considered in ordinary lifting­ line tbeories. This difficulty is avoided by lifting-surface theory, the treat­ ment of which is outside the scope of this volume. Experience has shown that usable results are obtained from lifting-line theory if no spanwise discontinuities or rapid changes of section, chord, or twist are present, and if the wing has no pronounced. sweep, These conditions are obviously not satisfied near the wing tips, near the ex­ tremities partial span flaps or deflected ailerons, near cutouts and large fillets, or if the lying is partly stalled. Since the assumed conditions are not satisfied near the- wing tips, it is obvious that section data-are not applicable to wings of low aspect ratio. In fact, an entirely different theory" applies to wings of very low aspect ratio. The ordinary three­ dimensional wing theories are obviously not applicable at snpereritical speeds when the velocity of sound is exceeded anywhere in the field of flow. Despite these limitations, wing-section data have a wide field of ap­ plication to wings of the aspect ratios and plan forms customarily used for airplanes flying at subcritical speeds.

Introduction. A considerable body of aerodynamic theory has been developed with which it is possible to calculate some of the important 31 32 THEORY OF lVING SECTIONS characteristics of wing sections. Conversely it is possible to design wing sections to have certain desirable aerodynamic characteristics. The pur­ pose of this chapter is to review the basic fluid mechanics necessary for understanding the theory of lying sections. 2.3. Concept of a Perfect FlUid. The concept of a perfect fluid is an important simplification in fluid mechanics. The perfect fluid is considered to be a continuous homogeneous medium within which no shearing stresses can exist. For the purpose of this chapter the perfect fluid is also con­ sidered to be incompressible. The assumption of zero shearing stresses, or zero viscosity, eliminates the possibility of obtaining any information about the drag of wing sec­ tions or about the separation of the flow from the surface. This assump­ tion is very useful, nevertheless, because it simplifies the equations of motion that otherwise cannot generally be solved and because the resulting solutions represent reasonable approximations to many actual flows, In all cases under consideration, the viscous forces are small compared with the inertia forces except in the layer of fluid adjacent to the surface. The direct effects of viscosity are negligible except in this layer, and viscosity has little effect on the general flow pattern unless the local effects are such as to make the flow separate from the surface. The assumption of incompressibility also results in simplified solutions that are reasonable approximations to actual flows except at high speeds. Although gases such as air are compressible, the relative change in density occurring in a field of flow is small if the variation of pressure is small compared with the absolute pressure. This assumption leads to increas­ ingly important discrepancies as the local velocity anywhere in the field of flow approaches the velocity of sound. The effects of compressibility will be discussed in Chap. 9. 2.4. Equations of Motion. One of the fundamental conditions that must be satisfied is that no fluid can be created or destroyed within the field of flow considered. This condition means that the amount of fluid entering any small element of volume must equal the amount of fluid leaving the element. For an incompressible fluid the amount of fluid may be measured by its volume. The equation of continuity, expressing this condition, may be derived from the following considerations. Figure 21 shows a small element of volume having dimensions dx, dy, and dz. The components of velocity along each of the three axes x, 'Jj, and z are u, u, and w. The volume of fluid entering across each of the faces of the element of volume, perpendicular to the x, y, and z axes, respectively, is u dydz entering yz face v dz dx entering zx face wdxdy entering xy face SIMPLE TWO-D{/1fENSIONAL FWWS 33 To the first order of small quantities, the amount of fluid leaving the element of volume across the corresponding opposing faces is (u + ~: dx ) dy dz (v + :;; d y) dz dx (w + :: dz) dx dy leaving yz face leaving zx face leaving xy face r FIO.21. Z Element of volume considered in derivation of equation of continuity. The condition of continuity requires that the volume of fluid leaving the element must be equal to the volume entering. Hence the equation of continuity for an incompressible fluid is au + aV + ow = 0 ax ay iJz (2.1) The other .fundamental condition to be satisfied is that the motion of the fluid must be in accordance with N ewton's laws of motion. This con­ dition may be stated as follows: Du Dt dx dy dz X = p y= p~ Z =p dxdydz (2.2) Dw Dt ds: dy dz where X, Y, Z == components of force on the element of fluid d» dy dz in" the z, y, and z directions, respectively t == time and the differentiations are performed following the motion of the element.

Preparatory to BIJIPLB TWO-DI},(EN810NAL FWMTS 35 integrating Eqs.

Integrating this equation gives Bernoulli's equation p+%pV2 = H (2.5) where H, the constant of integration, is the total pressure. The application of Eq. (2.5) is limited by the assumptions made in its derivation, namely, 1. Perfect incompressible fluid. 2. Steady motion. 3. Integration along path of motion (streamline). It follows that this equation may be applied only along streamlines in unaccelerated flow where the effects of viscosity and compressibility are negligible. 2.6. Description of .Flow Patterns. It is evident from the foregoing equations that the flow pattern would be completely determined if the values of u, n, and to were known at every point. The theory of wing sections assumes that the flow is two-dimensional, that is, W = o. Even with this simplification, it is still necessary to specify both the components of velocity u and v to define the flow, By the use of the equation ofcon­ tinuity (2.1) it is possible to simplify the problem further so that it is necessary to specify only a single quantity at each point to determine the flow pattern. 36 THEORY OF lVING SECTIONS Consider the flow across the arbitrary line oba that connects the origin o with a point a (Fig. 22). The amount of flow across this line will be the same as that across any other line connecting the two points, for example, line oea, provided that the equation of continuity holds for all points within the region enclosed by the two lines. 'Vith a fixed origin 0 the amount of fluid crossing any line joining the points 0 and a is therefore a function only 'of the position of the point a for a given flow pattern. The amount of fluid passing between the points 0 and a is given by the following expression 1/1= y J: udy-vdx or elf = 11, dy - v dx (2.6) Because the value of 1/1 is independent of the path of integration, Eq. (2.6) remains valid even though dx and dy are varied inde­ pendently. The general expression for the total differential of 1/1 is d.I6 FlO. 22. Derivation of stream function. 'I' = at/! dx + iJl/I d ax ay Y (2.7) This equation is also valid for independent variations of dx and dy. The coefficients of dx and dy in Eqs. (2.6) and (2.7) must therefore be equal, or :~~a~} (2.8) ax _" A single function 1/1 has therefore been found by means of which it is possible to define both components of velocity at all points in the field of flow. This function'" is called the "stream function." Lines in the flow along which t/t is constant are called Cl streamlines," and these lines are the paths of motion of fluid elements for steady motion, In general, the component of velocity in any direction may be obtained by differentiating the stream function in a direction 900 counterclockwise to the component desired. In polar coordinates, therefore, the expressions for the radial and tangential components of velocity are u , =lay, -­ roO v, = - -~ ­ dr radial t tangential .\ (2.9) SIMPLE TWO-DIMENSIONAL FWWB 37 Most flows of a perfect fluid are of the type known as II irrotational motion." In irrotational motion the fluid elements move with translation only. Their angular velocity is zero. This absence of angular velocity does not, of course, prevent the ele­ ments from moving in curved paths. To obtain expressions for the angular velocity of an element w ---,-.-.. in terms of the velocity deriva­ !?doting tives, consider the motion of a disc solid disk.

Velocity derivatives for rotatiDg disk. is called It vorticity." The vorticity is seen to be twice the angular velocity. The integral of the tangential component of velocity around any closed curve is defined as the circulation. A simple relation exists between the cir­ culation around a curve and the vorticity over the area enclosed by the curve. Consider the small element shown in Fig. 24. + (u + ~; dy ) dx - at: = v dy dr = (auay _oxau) dx dy or (v + :~ d.'t) dy - u dx That is, the element of circulation is equal to the vorticity multiplied by the element of area. For any finite area, the u+/tdY circulation is given by the following expression: r dy V u = !!(au ay - av) dx dy ox (2.10) The angular velocity of any element can be changed only by the application of tangential FIG. 24. Calculation of cireu(shearing) forces which, by definition, are ab­ lation about element of area. sent in a perfect fluid. It follows that, if the flow is once irrotational, it will rem~in irrotational and the circulation around any closed path will equal zero. If the flow is not irrotational, the circu­ lation around any path moving with the fluid will remain constant. ds THEORY OF WING 8BC7.'IONS 38 H the flow is irrotational, it is possible to derive a second quantity which, like the stream function, can be used to describe the flow pattern completely. Consider the flow field indicated in Fig. 25. The line integral of the velocity over the path oap must be equal to the line integral of the velocity over the path obp if .the motion is irrotational in the region be­ tween the two paths. The value of this integral, called the U velocity potential 4>," therefore depends only on the p0­ sition of the point p relative to the origin o, The value of the velocity potential is I o rP= J:udx+vdy d;=Vcos a; ds Fro. 25.

Equations (2.15) and (2.16) impose rather general conditions on functions chosen to represent actual flow patterns. Any function of cP or t satisfying Eqs.

This method of obtaining new flow patterns by superposition of known flows is fundamental to the theory of wing sections because it leads to simple solutions of complicated problems. 2.6.

Sources and Sinks. The -eoncept of sources and sinks is one of the building blocks used to construct desired flow patterns. A source is con­ sidered to be a point at which fluid is being created at a given rate. A sink 40 THEORl" OF WING SECTIONS is a point at which fluid is being destroyed. The flow about a point source or sink is assumed to be uniform in all directions and to obey the equations of continuity and of irrotational motion everywhere except at the POint itself. In two-dimensional motion, the flow is assumed to be the same in all planes perpendicular to the z axis. The point source in two-dimensional motion is therefore a line parallel to the z axis from which fluid emanates at a uniform rate throughout its infinite length. In accordance with these assumptions, the radial component of velocity u' at any point at a distance T from a source creating fluid at a rate m per unit length perpendicular to the plane of flow may be expressed as u' ~ 2...r = .(2.18) Because the sink is simply a negative source, the equation for the radial component of velocity is the same as Eq. (2.18) except that the velocity is directed toward the sink. The tangential component of velocity resulting from a source or sink is zero. . Taking the origin at the source ,ve have u == u' cos 8 v == u' sin (J r=Vr+y2 where cos (J == v'x2 + 11 • (J SID == v'z! + y2 y Substituting in Eq. (2.8), we have ih/I mx u = iJy = 211'(x! + V) Integration of this expression with respect to y results in the expression 1/1 = m tan-Ill x 27 (2.19) The same expression may be obtained by a corresponding process using the expression for v and integrating with respect to x. It is seen that f/I is a multiple-valued function of x and y. This peculiarity results from the fact that the equation of continuity is not valid at the source itself. The expression for the flow from a point source in terms of the velocity potential <p may be obtained as follows: oq, mx t t = - = -2- - ­ ax cP = m In 2r 2r(x + y2) vx + y2 2 (2.20) SlJfPLE TWO-DIMENSIOlfAL FWWS 41 From Eqs. (2.19) and (2.20) it is seen that the streamlines for a source situated at the origin are radial lines and that the equipotential lines are circles about the origin. c. Doublets. A doublet is the limiting case of the flow about a single source and a sink of equal strength that approach each other in such a manner that the product of the source strength and the distance between the source and sink remains constant. The axis of the doublet is the line joining the source andsink. To obtain expressions for the flow about a doubtlet, consider the arrangement of "a source and a sink shown in Fig. 26. The source and sink are situated on y the x axis at - 8 and 8, respectively. The flow resulting from the combi­ nation is 1/1 = !!!.(tan-1 ~ 2r x +8- tan-1 _ Y- ) X - 8 Since a-b tan:" a - tarr? b = tan-1 - ­ I +ab we have l/I = m tarr:' - 2ys 2r x 2 + y1. - 8 2 FlO. 26.

Circular Cylinder in a Uniform Stream. The flow about a circular cylinder in a uniform stream is obtained by superposing a uniform stream [Eq. (2.17)] on the flow about a doublet [Eq. (2.21)] with the uniform stream flowing from the source to the sink. 1f = Y( IT - 21r(x:+ if») This equation may be written as follows in terms of polar coordinates: '" = Y r where a2 r2 (1 - ~) sin 8 = JJ/21r l' = x 2 + y2 (2.22) THEORY OF WING SECTIONS 42 It is obvious from Eq. (2.22) that part of the streamline'" == 0 is the circle r = a. At large distances from the origin the flow is uniform and parallel to the x axis. Equation (2.22) therefore represents the flow about a circular cylinder in a uniform stream. The streamlines for this flow pattern are shown in Fig. 27. The velocity distribution about the cylinder may be obtained by finding the tangential component of velocity on the circle T == a. 11 = - : = - V ( 1 + ~) sin (J = - 2V sin (J (2.23) i FIG. 27.

Voriex. A vortex is a flow pattern in which the elements of fluid follow circular paths about a point, and the flow is irrotational at all points except the center. The equations defining the flow pattern may be derived directly from Laplace's equation for the stream function. Equation (2.16) may be written 88 follows in terms of polar coordinatesr" (2.26) 8IMPLE TWO-DIMEN8IONAL FWW8 43 Because the radial component of velocity is zero, !ol/l = 0 ro8 and hence lo~ =0 r afP Equation (2.26) therefore becomes lPt/t+!d1/l=O dr rdr Integrating once with respect to r we obtain d ln 1/l + 1n r = c dr or d1/l dr = I' rc' = 2111 == - , v (2.27) where the constant of integration c' is assigned the value I' /21r. The veloc­ ity therefore varies inversely with the disy tance from the center of the vortex. The circulation I' about the vortex is equal to - 2rrv'. The circulation is considered to be positive in the clockwise direction, whereas v' is positive in the counterclockwise direction. The stream function may be obtained by in­ tegration of Eq.

The flow pattern represented by a circular cylinder with circulation is the basic flow pattern from which the flow about "ring sections of arbitrary shape at various angles of attack is calculated. Such & flow pattern is obtained by superposing the flow pro­ duced by a point vortex upon the flow about a circular cylinder. Adding the flows corresponding to Eqs.

Introduction. It was shown in Chap. 2 that the field of flow about a circular cylinder with circulation in a uniform stream is known. It is possible to relate this field of flow to that about an arbitrary "ring section by means of conformal mapping. In relating these fields of flow, the circulation is selected to satisfy the Kutta condition that the velocity at the trailing edge of the section must be finite. Such characteristics as the lift and pressure distribution may then be determined from the known flow about the circular cylinder. The resulting theory permits the ap­ proximate calculation of the angle of zero lift, the moment coefficient, the pressure distribution, and the field of flow about the section under con­ ditions where the flow adheres closely to the surface. 3.3. Complex Variables. Conformal mapping, which makes the cal­ culation of'wing-section characteristics possible, depends on the use of complex variables. A complex number is a number composed of two parts, a real part and a so-called imaginary part. The real part is just an ordinary number that may have any value. The imaginary part contains the factor v=!, which is given the symbol i. A complex variable z may therefore be written in the form z = x+ iy where the symbols in the expression x + iy obey all the usual rules of algebra. It should be remembered that~"2 is equal to - 1. Such a variable z can be represented conveniently by plotting the real part z as the abscissa" of a point and the magnitude y of the imaginary part as the ordinate. By De Moivre's theorem, z may also be written in the form z = reiIJ where rand 8 are the polar coordinates. Let us consider the complex variable w=<I>+il/l and let w = f(z) , that is, 4> + il/l = f(x + iy) Then :2q,2 + i:~.. = /:"r(x + iy) == f'(z) uX u~t and cP (j2 .a2;p ~ ( +.) f"( ) iJ 2 + ~ a y 2 = JJl1J X ~y = z y THEORY OF WING SECTIONS 48 adding, we have 02</J + iJ2q, + i(iJ'-t/I + iJ~) iJ y 2 ax2 iJ y 2 ax2 = 0 In any equation involving complex variables, the real and imaginary parts must be equal to each other independently.

Conformal Transformations. .1\ conformal transformation con­ sists in mapping a region of one plane on another plane in such a manner that the detailed shape of infinitesimal elements of area is not changed. This restriction does not mean that the shape of finite areas cannot be considerably altered. It has been ShO"·11 previously that the equipotential lines and streamlines intersect at right angles, thus dividing the field of flow into a large number of small rectangles. It has also been shown that the equation w = j(z) represents a possible flow pattern. The equation w = g(r) represents another flow pattern where ~ r is the complex variable + i11 The coordinates in the z plane are considered. to be x and y, and those in the r plane are ~ and 'I. If the equipotential lines and streamlines are plotted in either of the planes, they will divide the plane into a large num­ ber of small rectangles. These rectangles will be similar at .corresponding points in both planes. The corresponding points are found from the relation f(z) = g(t) THEORY OF' WING SECTIONS 50 This equation accordingly represents the conformal transformation from the z plane to the r plane or the converse. In practical use, the Ho\v function in the z plane is known and the corresponding flow function in the r plane is desired. To plot the flow known on the z plane on the r plane, it is necessary to solve this relation for r and to obtain an equation in the form r == h(z) In the transformations we shall consider, this relation will be given, The velocities in the z plane, by Eq. (3.1), are dw _ dz ==u-~v The corresponding velocities in the dw r plane are dwdz (3.8) dt == liz dr As a simple example of a conformal transformation, consider the re­ lations W=V(Z+~)=Vt These relations transform the flow about a circular cylinder on the z plane [Eq. (3.5)] to uniform flow parallel to the ~ axis on the plane [Eq. (3.2)]. Corresponding points of both planes are obtained from the relation r r == z+­atz " and are indicated in Fig. 30. 3.5. Transformation of a Circle into a Wing Section. A circle can be transformed into a shape resembling that of a wing section by substitution of the variable a2 t==z+­z (3.9) into the expression for the flow about a circular cylinder having a radius slightly larger than a, and so placed that the circumference passes through the point x == a. If, in addition, the center of the larger cylinder is placed on the x axis, the transformed curve will be that of a symmetrical wing section (Fig. 31). In the present example, let the center of the larger cylinder be placed at the point x = - E where E is a real quantity. The radius of this cylinder will then be a + E. The equation of flow about the larger cylinder with circulation is then 10 == V(z* + E + (a + E)2) + Z*+E ir In z* + E 211" a+E THEORY OF WIl{G SECTIONS OF FINITE THICKNES8 - - - - - - - ----4~-- + - - ~ 51 --------­ Z PLANE I {=Z+-j- 2 I .I; ( PLANE FIG. 30.

(3.9) into Eq. (3.10) would result in the equation for the flow about the wing section but would lead to a complicated ex­ pression. A simple way of obtaining the shape of the 'ling section is to select values of z corresponding to points on the larger cylinder and find the corresponding points in the r plane by the use of Eq. (3.9). The velocity of any point on the wing section can be found from Eq. (3.8). dw dr = [v (e- dw dz = dz dr Wzo _ (a e + E)2 iae ) (z + E)2 + ir ] (~) z~ - a2 2r(z + E) It can be seen from this equation that the velocity at the point z = a is infinite unless the first factor is zero. The point z = a corresponds to the trailing edge of the wing section.

Most wing sections have a general resemblance to each other. If the aforementioned transformation is applied to a wing section, the resulting curve in the z plane will therefore be nearly circular in shape. Theodorsen recognized this fact and showed that the flow about the nearly circular curve, and hence about the wing section, can be derived from the flow about the true circle by a rapidly converging process. The basic method is presented in reference 122, and a detailed discussion of the method is given in reference 125. The derivation of Theodorsen's relation for the velocity distribution about the wing is divided into three parts (Fig. 32). 1. Derivation of relations between the flow in the plane of the wing section (r plane) and in the plane of the near circle (z' plane). 2. Derivation of relations between the flow in the z plane and in the plane of the true circle (z plane). 3. Combination of the foregoing relations to obtain the final expression for the velocity distribution in the r plane in terms of the ordinates of the wing section.

This process corresponds to the application of the Kutta-Joukowski condition. At zero angle of attack, the trailing edge corresponds to the point z = a,eh+~T It is therefore necessary for the circulation r to have a value corresponding to a rotation of the stagnation point by an amount ao + ET. This value may be seen from Eq. (2.30) to be I' = 4r~V sin (ao + ET) Substituting the general value of z on the surface of the cylinder into Eq.

The coordinates of the wing ~ction are found with respect to a line joining a point midway between the nose of the section and its center of curvature and its trailing edge for sections having sharp trailing edges. 122 The coordinates of these points are taken as (- 2a, 0) and (2a, 0), respec­ tively.

For most purposes the first approximation to E is sufficiently accurate. If greater accuracy is desired, a second approximation may be found by plotting 1/1 against 8 + E and repeating steps 6 and 7 before proceeding. 3.7. Empirical Modification of the Theory. Although the foregoing theory for computing the pressure distribution about arbitary wing sections is exact for perfect fluid flow, the presence of viscous effects in actual flows leads to discrepancies. Even when the flow is not separated from the surface, the thickness of the boundary layer effectively distorts the shape of the section. One result of this distortion is that the theoretical slope of the lift curve is not realized. A comparison of the actual lift and moment. THEORY OF WING SECTIONS OF FINITE THICKNE8S 61 characteristics with the theoretical ones is made in Fig. 33 for the NACA 4412 wing section.a This comparison is typical in that the experimental lift coefficient is lower than the theoretical value at a given angle of attack and the theoretical value of the pitching-moment coefficient is not realized. Several methods suggest themselves for bringing the theory into closer agreement with experiment.

Comparison between theoretical and measured lift and pitching-moment coefficients, NACA 4412 wing section. brought into agreement by reducing the theoretical angle of attack. This method seriously alters the flow about the leading edge, leading to dis­ crepancies in the pressure distribution over the forward portion of the wing section. Another method tried by Pinkerton'" is to reduce the circulation to the required value by disregarding the Kutta condition. This method leads to fair agreement over .the greater part of the wing section (Fig. 34) but, as would be expected, leads to infinite velocities at the trailing edge. Pinkerton- found that fairly satisfactory agreement with experiment could be obtained by effectively distorting the shape of the section (Fig. 34)~ This distortion is affected by finding an increment aET required to avoid infinite velocities at the trailing edge when the eirculation is 00.­ THEORY OF WING SECTIONS 62 justed to produce the experimentally observed lift coefficient.

The agreement obtained by this method is indicated by Fig. 34 and the moment coefficients of Fig. 33. 3.8. Design of WiDg Sections. Section 3.6 presents a method for obtaining the pressure distribution for arbitrary wing sections. A knowl­ edge of the pressure distribution is desirable for structural design and for the estimation of the critical Mach number and the moment coefficient if tests are not available. The pressure distribution also exerts a strong or predominant influence on the boundary-layer flow and, hence, on the sec­ tioJl. characteristics. It is therefore usually advisable to relate the aero­ dynamic characteristics to the pressure distribution rather than directly to the geometry of the wing section. In the experimental development of wing sections, it is accordingly desirable to have a method of determining changes of shape of the section corresponding to desired changes in the 7'BEORY OF WING SECTIONS OF FINITE THICKNESS 63 pressure distribution. A method that has been used successfully for the development of the newer NACA wing sections is presented in-reference 3. Equation (3.22) gives the relation between the velocity distribution over the wing section and the shape parameters 1/1 and 8. It is shown by Theodorsen and Garrick12l that an alternate expression is v sin (ao + Ip) + sin (ao + E'I')e4'o V = v(sinh2 ~ + sin" 8) t[1 - (dE/d'P)]2 + [(dlY/d'P)]2} (3.24) Basic symmetrical shapes are derived by assuming suitable values of dE/dtp as a function of tp. These values are chosen on the basis of previous experience and are subject to the conditions that (1r dE = () 10 dqJ and dE/dtp at qJ is equal to dE/dtp at - qJ. These conditions are necessary for obtaining closed symmetrical shapes. Values of E{qJ) are obtained by in­ tegrating (dE/d'P) dtp. Values of 1/I(tp) are found by obtaining the conjugate curve of E{tp) by means of Eq. (3.17) and adding an arbitrary value 1/10 sufficient to make the value of 1/1 equal to or slightly greater than zero at 'P = ".. This condition assures a sharp trailing-edge shape. If 1/1 equals zero at qJ = ..., the wing section will have a cusplike trailing edge. Slightly positive values of 1/1 result in more conventional trailing-edge shapes. Theodorsen'P has shown that small changes in the velocity distribution at any point on the surface are approximately proportional to 1 + (dE/dqJ). The initially assumed values of dE/dip are accordingly altered by a process of successive approximations until the desired type of velocity distribution is obtained. After the final values of y, and E are obtained, the ordinates of the symmetrical section are computed by Eq. (3.12). Although a similar procedure may be used to design cambered sections, it has been found convenient to design symmetrical sections which may then be cambered by a method to be described in Sec. 4.5. This method is satisfactory for thin or moderately thick sections. Very thick sections must be designed directly with the desired camber. Goldstein17C1 has also developed useful approximate methods for the design of cambered wing sections. CHA~TER 4 THEORY OF THIN WING SECTIONS 4.1. Symbols.

Many of. the properties of wing sections are primarily functions of the shape of the mean line, The mean line is con­ sidered to be the locus of points situated halfway between the upper and lower surfaces of the section, these distances being measured normal to the mean line. Although the mean line of an arbitrary lying section is rather difficult to obtain, the construction of cambered lying sections from given mean lines and symmetrical thickness distributions is relatively easy. Among the properties mainly associated with the shape of the mean line are 1. The chordwise load distribution. 2. The angle of zero lift. 3. The pitching-moment coefficient.

Later contributions to the theory were made by Birnbaum, Glauert," Theodor­ sen,t21 and Allen." The present treatment follows that given by Glauert." For the purposes of the theory, the lying section is considered to be re­ placed by its mean line. The chordwise distribution of load is assumed to be connected with a chordwise distribution of vortices. Let 'Y be the difference in velocity between the upper and lower surfaces. The total circulation around the section is then given by the relation (4.1) where c is the chord and the camber is assumed to be sufficieutly small for distances along the chord line to be substantially equal to those along the mean line. The configuration for the analysis is given in Fig. 35. The vertical components of velocity caused by an element of the vortex distribution along the mean line have the magnitudes [see Eq. (2.27)] 'Ydx THEORY OF WING SECTIONS 66 where x is the position of the element and Xl is the point where velocity is being calculated. The total vertical component of velocity at. any point Xl is then (4.2) where v" =- component of velocity normal to chord line The thin wing section must of course be a streamline. There is no flow through it. The equation expressing this condition is (4.3) for small angles. Equations (4.2) and (4.3) are the fundamental relations between· the shape of the mean line and its aerodynamic characteristics. It is possible to obtain the characteristics of arbitary thin wing sections from these relations. The pressure distribution or the chordwise load dis­ tribution may, however, be obtained more accurately and just as con­ veniently by the method presented in Sec. 3.6. 4.3. Angle of Zero Lift and Pitching Moment. Simple relations for the angle of zero lift and the pitching moment of arbitrary thin wing sec­ tions may be obtained by the application of a Fourier method of analysis to Eqs. (4.2) and (4.3).

The solution is based on the assumptions that the mean-line ordinates are represented satisfactorily by (U + L)/2 and that the tangent of the mean line at the trailing edge coincides with the last t\VO points. The accuracy is accordingly expected to be limited for sections with large curvatures of the mean line near the trailing edge, or for thick, highly cambered sections. 4:.4. Design of Mean Lines. It is possible to design mean lines to have certain desired load distributions by means of the theory of thin wing sections. The fundamental relations are Eqs. (4.1), (4.2), and (4.3). A simple example of the manner in which a mean line is designed may be HI demonstrated by the design of a mean line to have uniform load. \ For a uniform chordwise load distribution, the value of -y in Eq. (4.2) is a constant over the chord. Equation (4.2) may therefore be written (4.23) The lift is and Cl, equals C, , 21 2-y pV c V = - 2- = ­ or Ve" 'Y=T By substitution, Eq. (4.23) becomes "ft(XI) Cl'1 (x/c)d(x/c) V C 411" - (xI/c) 1 = (4.24) 0 Special means must be used to integrate Eq. (4.24) because the inte­ grand becomes infinite as x approaches Xl. The integration is performed as follows: V"(Xl) V C = = cl'I· 4r ~ [l wc d(x/c) >-, 0 (x/c) - (Xl/C) + r d(x/c) ] - (Xl/C) }CZl/C)+e (x/c) Cl, lim{[ln(~ - ~)~:Q-' IJo + [In(~C - ~)Jl 411" e-+O C C = ~~[ln(l-~)-ln(:l)~ C } St+e THEORY OF WING SECTIONS 74 The angle of attack at which the uniform load distribution is realized is zero because the assumed load distribution, and accordingly the mean line, is symmetrical about the mid-chord point. Equation (4.3) becomes ~ = :; [ In(1-~) -In(~)J (4.25) Integration of this expression gives y == - ~~[(l- ~)In(l- ~)+~ In ~J (4.26) where the constant of integration has been selected to make the ordinates zero at the leading and trailing edges. By similar but more complicated processes, the mean lines corre­ sponding to other types of load distribution may be calculated. In this con­ nection, it is interesting to note that the distribution of l' and the slope of the mean line are conjugate functions at the ideal angle of attack [see Eqs. (4.5) and (4.11)]. The slope of the mean line can therefore be obtained from the assumed load distribution by the proper application of Naiman's coefficientg8.73 as in Eq. (3.17). The mean-line ordinates can then be ob­ tained by graphical or analytical methods. Mean lines have been caleulatedv corresponding to a load distribution that is uniform from x/c = 0 to x/c = a and decreases linearly to zero at x/c = 1. The ordinates are given bythe expression ~ - ~r(:'+ 1) {I ~ a[~(a - ~rln \a - ~I- ~(1 - ~rln(l -~) +~(l-~r -~(a-~)1-~ln~+g-h~} where (4.27) J) +-4IJ - 1 [ 0)(12 g:::z-- a· - lna-- I-a h= 4 n 1~ a (1 - aYIn(1 - a) - ~ (1 - a)] + 0 The ideal angle of attack for these mean lines is Cl,}" a; = 21r(a + 1) It \\;11 be noted that the ordinates of the mean lines are directly pro­ portional to the design lift coefficient. The fact that the load distributions and the ordinates of the corresponding mean lines are additive may be seen from examination of Eqs.. (4.5) and (4.11). This property is, of course, a direct consequence of the linearizing assumptions made in writing the fundamental expressions (4.1), (4.2), and (4.3).. This linearity is con­ venient because ordinates of a mean line having a load distribution made THEORY OF THIN WING SECTIONS 75 up of the sums of load distributions for which the corresponding ordinates are known can be obtained by simply adding the ordinates of the com­ ponent mean lines. The linearizing assumptions lead to increasing errors as the slope of the mean line increases. For geometrically similar mean lines, the slope in­ creases with the design lift coefficient, and the errors are consequently greater for the larger design lift coefficients. In the case of the uniform­ load mean line [Eq. (4.26)], the slope is infinite at the leading and trailing edges, and it is not to be expected that the assumed load will be maintained 2.0 -"-­ / I( °0 -~ ~ " .2 .6 .4 r--. r---.... .8 1\ LO ~ FIo. 36. Typical basic load distribution at ideal angle of attack. near these points. The region in which the slope is large is extremely small, however, because of the manner in which the slope approaches infinity [Eq. (4.25)]. 4.6. Engineering Applications of Section Theory. The theory of wing sections presented in Sec. 3.6 permits the calculation of the pressure distri­ bution and certain other characteristics of arbitrary sections with con­ siderable accuracy. Although this method is not unduly laborious, the computations required are too long to permit quick and easy calculations for large numbers of wing sections. The need for a simple method of quickly obtaining pressure distributions with engineering accuracy has led to the development of a method! combining features of thin and thick wing-section theory. This simple method makes use of previously cal­ culated characteristics of a limited number of mean lines and thickness forms that may be combined to form large numbers of related wing sections. The theory of thin wing sections as presented in Sec. 4.3 and reference 121 shows that the load distribution of a thin section may be considered to consist of 1. A basic distribution at the ideal angle of attack (Fig. 36). 2. An additional distribution proportional to the angle of attack as measured from the ideal angle of attack (Fig. 37). The first load distribution is a function only of the shape of the thin wing section or (if.the thin wing section is considered to be a mean line) of the mean-line geometry. Integration of this load distribution along the THEORY OF WING SECTIONS 76 chord results in a normal force coefficient which, at small angles of attack, is substantially equal to the design lift coefficient. If, moreover, the camber of the mean line is changed by multiplying the mean-line ordinates by a constant factor, the resulting load distribution, the ideal or design angle of attack as, and the design lift coefficient Ck may be obtained simply by multiplying the original values by the same factor. The second load distribution, which results from changing the angle of attack, is designated the U additional load distribution," and the cor­ responding lift coefficient is designated the Ct additional lift coefficient." 5.0 4.0 ~O \ \ \ ~ 1.0 00 "~ .2 ~ ............. .4 ~ .6 - r--. r--.- r-, .8 LO ~ Flo. 37. Additional load distribution 8880Ciated with anale of attack.. This additional load distribution contributes no moment about the quarter­ chord point and, according to the theory of thin wing sections, is independ­ ent of the geometry of the wing section except for angle of attack. The additional load distribution obtained from the theory of thin wing sections is of limited practical application, however, because this simple theory leads to infinite values of the velocity at the leading edge. This difficulty is obviated by the exact theory of wing sections presented in Sec. 3.6, which also shows that the additional load distribution is neither com­ pletely independent of the airfoil shape nor exactly a linear function of the angle of attack. Suitable additional load distributions can be calculated by the methods of Sec. 3.6 for each thickness form (symmetrical section) and a typical value of the additional lift coefficient.. The variation of the additional load distribution with the additional lift coefficient is arbitrarily assumed to be linear. In addition to the pressure distributions associated with these two load distributions, another pressure distribution exists which is associated with the thickness form, or basic symmetrical section, at zero angle of attack and which is calculated by the methods of Sec. 3.6. J THEORY OF THIN WING SECTIONS 77 The velocity distribution about the wing section is thus considered to be composed of three separate and independent components as follows: 1. The distribution corresponding to the velocity distribution over the basic thickness form at zero angle of attack. 2. The distribution corresponding to the load distribution of the mean line at its ideal angle of attack. 3. The distribution corresponding to the additional load distribution associated with angle of attack. The local load at any chordwise position is caused by a difference of velocity bet,veen the upper and the lower surfaces. It is assumed? that the velocity increment on one surface is equal to the velocity decrement on the other surface. This assumption is in accord with the basic concept of the distribution of circulation used in the theory of thin wing sections. It can be shown that the relation between the local load coefficient P R 'and the velocity increment ratios !:1v/V or !:1vo/V is !:1v V ~Va or 1 PR V =4v1V where v/V is the velocity ratio at the corresponding point on the surface of the basic thickness form. In actual practice the value of !:"v IV used is that corresponding to the thin wing section or mean line where v/V equals unity: The velocity increment ratios !J.v/V and I1vo / V corresponding to com­ ponents 2 and 3 are added to the velocity ratio corresponding to component 1 to obtain the total velocity at one point from which the pressure coefficient S is obtained, thus S = (::. ± .1v ± I1Va V V )2 V, , (4.28) This procedure is illustrated in Fig. 38. "Then this formula is used, values of the ratios corresponding to one value of x/c are added together and the resulting value of the pressure coefficient S is assigned to the surface of the wing section at the same value of x/c. The values of !:,.v/V' and I1vo / V are positive on the upper surface and negative on the lower surface for positive values of the corresponding local loads. When the ratio I1va/ V has the value of zero, integration of the resulting pressure-distribution diagram will give approximately the design lift coefficient Cli of the mean line. In general, however, the value of CI will be greater than ct, by an amount dependent on the thickness ratio of the basic thickness form. This discrepancy is caused by applying the values of !:1v/V obtained for the mean line to the sections of finite thickness where v/V is greater than unity over most of the surface. The pressure distribution will usually be desired at some specified lift coefficient not corresponding to cu: For this purpose, the ratio ava/V must THEORY OF WIJtiG SECTIONS 78 1.2 E __---~ ~ C A LYJN; SECT1CJ'.J ATZERO AtG...E OFATTACK .8 v V .4 .4 [ - MEAN l.f£ AT IlEAL ANiLE OFATTACK E CM'SEREO YiN; SECTOJAT lEAL ANiLE (F ATTACK - - - _ ~ I~' .4 0'------------­ ~ E·_u===:::::'-­ VELOCITY IfCREMENT RESlLTING FRQ.1 ANGLE rF ATTACK FOR SYtAETRCAL ¥lING ~ - 0[ 1.6 V 1.6 1.2 YJ..Ar.+- ~ V~ V - V .4 °0 .2 .4 .6 .8 LO .Jt FIG. 38.

Some discrepancy naturally occurs between the results of experiment and the results of any theoretical method based on potential flow because of the presence of the boundary layer. These effects are small, however, over the range of lift coefficients for which the boundary layer is thin and the drag coefficient is low. € H APTER 5 THE EFFECTS OF VISCOSITY 6.1. Symbols.

Concept of Reynolds Number and Boundary Layer. In order to be able to compare directly the forces acting on geometrically similar bodies of various sizes at various air speeds, it is customary to express the forces in terms of nondimensional coefficients, as explained in Chap. 1. For geometrically similar configurations, these coefficients tend to remain constant, and they would remain exactly constant if all factors influencing the flow about the body were properly accounted for. It is well known, however, that some characteristics such as the drag and maximum lift coefficients vary with the size of the wing for a given air speed, and with the air speed for a given size of wing. The two most important factors that are neglected in defining the, coefficients are effects associated with the compressibility and viscosity of air. An examination of the complete equations of motion- shows the significant parameters to be the ratio of the air speed to the speed of sound in air (the Mach number) and the Reynolds number pVL/p, where p is the mass density of the fluid, V is the velocity of the free stream, L is the characteristic length, and, "" is the viscosity of the fluid. It can be shown that similarity of the flows about different bodies is obtained only if the bodies are geometrically similar and if the Reynolds number and the Mach number are the same. At speeds where the pressure variations around the body are small compared with the absolute pressure (low Mach numbers) the effects of compressibility are negligible, and the viscous effects may be considered independently. THEORY OF WING SECTIONS 82 Some concept of the physical significance of the Reynolds number may be obtained by expressing this number in terms of the mean velocity and the mean free path of the molecules, as suggested by von Karman. 137 The kinetic theory of gases indicates that the coefficient of viscosity p, of a homogeneous gas may be expressed by a formula of the type66 p, = KtWL, where K = constant == mean molecular velocity LI == mean free path of the molecules Substituting this value of p. into the formula for the Reynolds number; we obtain 1 V L v R=--K V t; where R = Reynolds number The Reynolds number is thus proportional to the product of the ratio of the speed of the body to the mean speed of the molecules and of the ratio of the size of the body to the mean free path of the molecules. For bodies of ordinary size moving at low Mach numbers in air of ordinary density, the ratio V (V is small and the ratio L/L/ is very large. Under these conditions, the flow around the body corresponds to the conditions under which this formula was derived, namely, that the velocities are not large compared with the mean velocity and that the spatial dimensions of the phenomenon are large compared with the mean free path. The mean velocity v is of the same order of magnitude as the velocity of sound, and consequently the ratio V IV is of the same order as the Mach number. It accordingly be inferred that the Reynolds and Mach numbers are not independent parameters and that the scale effects ex­ perienced at high Mach numbers would be different from those at low Mach numbers even though the Reynolds numbers were the same in each case. Moreover, in a rarefied gas, as at extremely high altitudes, the mean free path may be of the same order as, or even much larger than, the characteristic length of the body. The concept of Reynolds number as presented here presupposes a mean free path that is small compared with the thickness of the boundary layer. Consequently the significance of this concept as applied to flows in very rarefied gases or at high Mach numbers is uncertain. Under such conditions, it is preferable to compare flows on the basis of the independent parameters V IV and L/L,. The effects of viscosity are of primary importance in a thin region near the surface of the wing called the U boundary layer." Boundary layers, in general, are of two types, namely, laminar and turbulent. The llow in the laminar layer is smooth and free from any eddying motion. The flow in the turbulent layer is characterized by the presence of a large number of relatively small eddies. The eddies in the turbulent layer produce a trans­ may THE EFFECTS OF VISCOSITY 83 fer of momentum from the relatively fast moving outer parts of the boundary layer to the portions closer to the surface. Consequently the distribution of average velocity is characterized by relatively higher velocities near the surface and a greater total boundary-layer thickness in a turbulent than in a laminar boundary layer developed under otherwise identical conditions. Skin friction is therefore higher for turbulent boundary-layer flow than for laminar flow. Aerodynamically, the concept of the boundary layer is based on the premise of a continuous homogeneous viscous fluid. According to this concept the velocity within the boundary layer varies from zero at the surface to the full local stream value at the outer edge of the layer. Such a concept is valid only if the density of the gas is sufficiently great to limit the mean free path of the molecules to a length very small compared with the thickness of the boundary layer. The kinetic theory of gases" indi­ cates that the velocity at the surface is not exactly zero but that there is a velocity of slip proportional to the velocity gradient. du v. = t dy The coefficient of slip ~ has the dimension of length and may be con­ sidered as a backward displacement of the wall with the velocity gradient extending effectively right up to the displaced wall where the velocity is zero. It has been shown by Maxwell, Millikan, and others that, for most surfaces, the coefficient of slip is very nearly equal to the mean free path of the molecules. At ordinary altitudes, this distance is so small that it may properly be neglected. At very high altitudes, this slip velocity may have large effects even though the mean free path is still only a fraction of the boundary-layer thickness. At still higher altitudes where the mean free path is long, the entire concept of the boundary layer and viscosity as presented here becomes invalid. 6.3. Flow around Wing Sections. When the pressures along the wing surfaces are increasing in the direction of flow, a general deceleration takes place. At the outer limits of the boundary layer, this deceleration takes place in accordance with Bernoulli's law. Closer to the surface, no such simple law can be given because of the action of the viscous forces within the boundary layer. In general, however, the relative loss of speed is somewhat greater for the particles of fluid within the boundary layer than for those at the outer limits of the layer, because the reduced kinetic .energy of the boundary-layer air limits its ability to flow against the adverse pres­ sure gradient. If the rise in pressure is sufficiently great, portions of the fluid within the boundary layer may actually have their direction of motion reversed and may start moving upstream. When this reversal occurs, the boundary layer is said to be "separated." Because of the increased inter­ 84 THEORY OF WING SECTIONS change of momentum from different parts of the layer, turbulent boundary layers are much more resistant to separation than are laminar layers. Except under very special circumstances laminar boundary layers can exist for only a relatively short distance in a region in which the pressure increases in the direction of flow. After laminar separation occurs, the flow may either leave the surface permanently or reattach itself in the form of a turbulent layer. Not much is known concerning the factors controllmg this phenomenon. Laminar separation on wings is usually not permanent at flight values of the Rey­ nolds number except when it occurs on some wing sections neai the leading edge under conditions corresponding to maximum lift. The size of the locally separated region that is formed when the laminar boundary layer separates and the flow returns to the surface decreases with increasing Reynolds number at a given angle of attack. The flow over aerodynamically smooth wings at low and moderate lift coefficients is characterized by laminar boundary layers from the leading edge back to approximately the location of the first minimum-pressure point on both upper and Iower surfaces. If the region of laminar flow is extensive, separation oecurs immediately downstream from the location of minimum pressure and the flow returns to the surface almost immedi­ ately at flight Reynolds numbers as a turbulent layer. This turbulent boundary layer extends to the trailing edge. If the surfaces are not suf­ ficiently smooth and fair, if the air stream is turbulent, or perhaps if the Reynolds number is sufficiently large, transition from laminar to turbulent flow may occur anywhere upstream of the calculated laminar separation point. ­ For low and moderate lift coefficients where inappreciable separation occurs, the wing profile drag is largely caused by skin friction, and the value of the drag coefficient depends mostly on the relative amounts of laminar and turbulent flow, If the location of transition is known or as­ sumed, the drag coefficient may be calculated with reasonable accuracy from boundary-layer theory. As the lift coefficient of the wing is increased by changing the angle of attack, the resulting application of the additional type of lift distribution moves the minimum-pressure point upstream on the upper surface, and the possible extent of laminar flow is thus reduced. The resulting greater proportion of turbulent flow, together with the larger average velocity of flow over the surfaces, causes the drag to increase with lift coefficient. At high lift coefficients, a large part of the drag is contributed by pres­ sure or form drag resulting from separation of the flow from the surface. The flow over the upper surface is characterized by a negative pressure peak near the leading edge, which causes laminar separation. The onset of turbulence causes the flow to return to the S1ma~e LCJ a turbulent boundary THE EFFECTS OF VISCOSITY 85 layer. High Reynolds numbers are favorable to the development of tur­ bulence and aid in this process. If the lift coefficient is sufficiently high or if the reestablishment of the flow following laminar separation is unduly delayed by low Reynolds numbers, the turbulent layer will separate from the surface near the trailing edge with resulting large drag increases. The eventual loss of lift with increasing angle of attack may result either from relatively sudden failure of the boundary layer to reattach itself to the surface following separation of the laminar boundary layer near the leading edge or from progressive forward movement of turbulent separation. Under the latter condition, the flow over a relatively large portion of the surface may be separated prior to maximum lift. 5.4. Characteristics of the Laminar Layer. The characteristics of the laminar boundary layer may be deduced from detailed consideration of the general equations of motion. For two-dimensional steady motion neglect­ ing the effects of compressibility, these equations are28 u au +. v au dX u ay av + v iJv ay oX = _ ~ ap + ~ (a u2 + 02U)} p iJx = _ ! dp + J!' 2 (iJ V 2 pax p iJy d y2 dX2 p + iJ2v) (5.1) iJ y 2 These equations are known as the "K"avier-Stokes equations." Their general solution is difficult. A simple integration can be performed only in special cases. These equations, however, may be simplified by the use of dimensionless variables and consideration of the order of magnitude of each term.

(5.1). Con­ sideration of the order of magnitude of the various terms of the second relation of Eq. (5.1) indicates that op;iJy is small and hence that pressures are transmitted unchanged through the boundary layer. An interesting conclusion is reached by substitution of the following nondimensional variables in Eq. (5.2).

It follows directly that the thickness of the laminar boundary layer varies inversely with the square root of the Rey­ nolds number. It may also be concluded that the shape of the velocity distribution through the boundary layer is independent of the Reynolds number, unless, of course, the pressure distribution is a function of the­ Reynolds number. It also follows that the position of the laminar separa­ tion point, characterized by the condition that au/ay is zero at the surface, is independent of the Reynolds number. A considerable amount of information concerning the velocity distribu­ tion in the laminar boundary layer can be derived from Eq. (5.3) without actually attempting a solution. _~t the surface Ul and VI must both equal zero. At the outer limit of the boundary layer Ul approaches a constant value. Consequently near the outer edge of the layer a2u/all must be negative and approach zero with increasing distance from the surface, as shown in Fig. 40. At the surface, Eq. (5.3) simplifies to the form 82u1 apt a yl2 = aXI When apI/aXI is positive (increasing pressure in the direction of flow), atujayt must be positive at the surface, and the shape of the velocity dis­ tribution will resemble that shown in Fig. 40 for this condition. Similarly the velocity distribution must be linear near the surface for zero pressure THE EFFECTS OF VISCOSITY 87 gradient, and the velocity profile will be continuously convex upward as shown in Fig. 40 for decreasing pressures in the direction of HOlV. 5.6.

Practically, this distance is not 'Yell defined because u/V approaches unity asymptotically.

Momentum Relation. The KarmlLn integral relation27• 111 pro­ vides a method for relating the boundary-layer thickness to the pressure distribution if the skin friction and the velocity distribution through the boundary layer are known or assumed. The relation is useful because good approximations to the skin friction and the velocity distribution can often be obtained from consideration of local conditions. This relation is applicable to both laminar and turbulent boundary layers. The Karman integral relation is based on the principle of mechanics that, if any closed surface is described within a steady stream of fluid, the time rate of in­ crease, within the surface, of momentum in any direction is equal to the sum of the components in that direction of all the forces acting on the fluid. H body forces such as weight are absent, the only forces to be eon­ fI4 sidered are those acting on the surface, dx fix that is, normal forces caused by presu sures and tangential forces caused by _p6# ~'!dx viscous shearing.

In this form the integrals approach zero as the upper limit is approached. This equation is suitable for the experimental determination of the skin friction, although the accuracy of the determination may be affected considerably by the form in which this equation is expressed. Another form of Eq. (5.9) can be obtained by the use of the displace­ ment and momentum thicknesses. The displacement thickness is defined by Eq. (5.7). The momentum thickness is related to the loss of momentum of the air in the boundary layer and is defined as 8 = }o{'(I - ~) 1.£ dy = ~ r U U U 2 }0 (U - 1.£)1.£ dy (5.10) Substitution of tJ· and 8 in Eq.

Application of Eq. (5.10) to the Blasius distribu­ tion gives a value of 8/x equal to O.664/~. Consequently the value of H for the Blasius distribution is 1.73/0.664 = 2.605. From Eq.

(5.12) permits the boundary-layer thickness to be calculated approximately if the pressure gradients are sufficiently small for the actual distribution of velocity through the boundar)' layer to be approximated by the Blasius distribution. For most wing sections at low and moderate lift coefficients, the pressure gradients satisfy this condition back to the position of minimum pressure. The skin friction may be assumed to be that corresponding to the Blasius velocity distribution for the calculated thickness of the boundary layer. A convenient way of performing these calculations is to find an equivalent length of flat plate'l' 2 which is given by i X. = .,. .. . ~~.-. ..

Laminar Separation. It was pointed out in Sec. 5.3 that the laminar boundary layer cannot ordinarily exist for long distances in a region where the pressures are increasing ill the direction of flow, and the extent of the laminar boundary layer under such conditions is limited by separation. The Blasius solution does not, of course, give any information about laminar separation because this solution is premised on the absence of pressure gradients. Calculations of the location of laminar separation require a solution of the boundary-layer equations in more general form. One such attempt was made by Pohlhausen." He assumed that the velocity distribution in the boundary layer could be expressed by a poly­ nomial of the form 0­ Y (Y)2 + a3(Y)3 (Y)4 ~ + a. ~ U = al ~ + at ~ 'U 0 Using plausible assumptions regarding the physical characteristics of the layer, Pohlhausen developed a method for calculating the velocity dis­ tribution in the boundary layer and the position of the separation point. This method has only limited applicability to the calculation of the lam­ inar separation point. 105 Karman and Millikan-" obtained more accurate 94 THEORY OF WING SECTIONS solutions of Eq. (5.2). The solutions are involved and require much cal­ culation, but the results appear to be satisfactory. For most actual 'York on wing sections, the extent of the laminar boundary layer in regions of adverse pressure gradients is too short to require much detailed attention. It is frequently desirable, however, to know the possible extent of the laminar layer as determined by laminar separation. It has been possible to develop a method for applying the I{arman-Millikan solution to the rapid estimation of the laminar separa­ tion point132 which is sufficiently accurate for most applications. More detailed studies may, however, be required for the condition associated with maximum lift. The method for rapidly estimating the position of laminar separation is based on the assumption that it is possible to replace the actual velocity distribution effectively by a simplified velocity distribution consisting of a region of uniform velocity followed by a region of linearly decreasing velocity. The actual pressure distribution up to the point of minimum pressure is used to calculate the equivalent length of fiat plate from Eq. (5.13). Because dp/dx is zero at the point of minimum pressure, the velocity distribution in the boundary layer at this point must approximate the Blasius distribution very closely. The replacement of the actual pres­ sure distribution downstream of the point of minimum "pressure by a linear velocity gradient is usually justified by the relatively small extent of the laminar boundary layer in this region. Consequently, the laminar separa­ tion point may be estimated from positions calculated for a family of such simplified pressure distributions. The position of the laminar separation point was calculated by the Kinnan-Millikan method for a series of pressure distributions of the fol­ lowing type. u - = 1 for 0 < !. < 1 Us - z.­ and u == 1 + F x - X e for 1 < ~ Uo x. - x. where x == distance along surface from leading edge x, == length of flat plate equivalent to length from leading edge to position of minimum pressure U = velocity outside boundary layer at any point x U« == maximum velocity F = velocity gradient (xc/Uo)(dU/dx) (constant for any given case) Irrhe values of U8/ Ue, where U8 is the velocity at the laminar separation POint, were calculated by the Kinnan-Millikan method for a series of values of F, and the results are shown in Fig. 43. In applying this method, the value of F is obtained from calculated values of x,,/Uo and the value of ulj/dx correspondiug to the estimated THE EFFECTS OF VISCOSITY 95 equivalent adverse velocity gradient. The corresponding value of UB/Uo is found from Fig. 43 and is applied to the actual velocity distribution to locate the position of laminar separation. 5.8. Turbulent Flow in Pipes. The earliest information on the nature of turbulent flow was obtained from studies of the flow in pipes. Reynolds found that, if the diameter of the pipe and the velocity were sufficiently 1.00 ~ / / .96 / ~ ~- ./ '/ V I( I .92 .90 / .880 1/ / -.04 -.OS -.16 -.12 -.20 -24 -.28 F I""JG. 43.

With larger diameters and greater velocities, the flow became turbulent, as shown by diffusion of the colored filaments. Reynolds found that, if the quantity pl'dlfJ. was less than about 2,000, the flow was always laminar. The upper limit of this Reynolds number for laminar flow was indefinite and depended mainly on the care taken to provide steady conditions and smooth surfaces. Values of the upper limit as much as ten to twenty-five times the lower limit have been found by various observers." With laminar flow, the pressure gradient. along the pipe increases linearly with the velocity; but, with turbulent flow, the gradient increases nearly as the square of the velocity. The velocity distributions across the diameter of the pipe for laminar and turbulent flows are shown in Fig. 44. For turbulent flow, the velocity distribution is more nearly uniform than for laminar flow, and the shearing stresses near the walls are considerably higher. These conditions result from the increased transport of momentum associated with the turbulent motion. It has been observed that the nondimensional velocity distribution THEORY OF WING SECTIONS 96 across the pipe is affected only slightly by the Reynolds number. On the basis of dimensional reasoning similar to that used for the formation of dimensionless coefficients for wings, Blasius" expressed the pressure loss in coefficient form as follows: r_ ~ = Pi - 'P2_ l ~p:;z2 where PI - 112 = pressure drop in a pipe of length l and radius r with a fluid of density p flowing at average velocity u.

The most im­ portant region in which to study the nature of the phenomena appeared to be in the vicinity of the wall of the pipe where the velocity gradient is high rather than in the middle of the pipe where the velocity is nearly uniform. It appeared reasonable to assume that the velocity distribution near the wall depended on the local quantities p and II- and the skin friction T and was independent of the radius of the pipe. It was assumed, in ap­ proximate agreement with experimental evidence, that the velocity dis­ tribution across the entire pipe could be expressed as a function of y/r alone where y is the distance from the wall of the pipe; that is, the velocity distribution remains similar for various mean velocities and pipe sizes.

In this case, r is interpreted as the thickness of the boundary layer and V as the velocity just outside the layer. The validity of the analogy between the flow in pipes and that over a flat plate is shown by the data of reference 19, some of which are presented in Fig. 45. 6.9. Turbulent Skin Friction. It is possible to calculate the skin friction on ~fiat plate with turbulent flow by application of the one-seventh power law [Eq. (5.15)] and the Blasius skin-friction formula [Eq. (5.14)] to the local boundary-layer conditions. In the case of the flow of an incom­ pressible fluid in a pipe, the Reynolds number along the pipe remains constant and the skin friction results in a loss of pressure. In the case of the flat plate, the pressure is constant along the plate and the skin friction causes a deceleration of the fluid particles, resulting in an increase of the thickness of the boundary layer and a corresponding increase of the boundary-layer Reynolds number, At any station along the plate, the skin-friction drag over that portion of the plate upstream of the station can be obtained from the rate of loss of momentum in the boundary layer. It is assumed that, for any station, the velocity distribution in the boundary layer corresponds to that in the pipe and that the local skin friction is the same as that in a pipe at the same Reynolds number.

Local turbulent skin-Iriction coefficient as a function of the boundary-layer Reynolds number. purposes. The profile drag of the wing is, of course, intimately associated with the thickness of the boundary layer at the trailing edge. It is also desirable to know the thickness of the boundary layer at various points on the wing surface in connection with the study of control surfaces, high-lift devices, air intakes, and protuberances. The thickness of the turbulent boundary layer can be calculated from the momentum equation (5.11) if a relation between the local skin-friction coefficient and the dependent variables 8, q, and H is knO\VD. Values of the skin-friction coefficient have been found by assuming that the relation between the boundary-layer Reynolds number R, and the skin-friction coefficient is the .same as the corresponding relation found from pipe experiments. This relation has been plotted in Fig. 47. Although this relation may not be very accurate, .particularly for values of the shape parameter H differing considerably from those found in pipes, such marked differences usually occur only when dqld» is large negatively. In this case Eq. (5.11) shows that the contribution of the skin-friction term to the rate of increase of the boundary-layer thickness dO/dx is relatively small. It may accordingl~ybe assumed for practical calculations that CJ is independent of the value of H. Further simplification of the calculations is obtained by assuming a c, THE EFFECTS OF VISCOSITY 103 skin-friction law of the type indicated by Eq. (5.23).

To determine the turbulent separation point, detailed information is needed concerning the velocity distribution in the boundary layer and the effects on the -velocity distribution of such factors as the pressure distribution and the skin friction. Although the value of the shape parameter H can be found for any given velocity dis­ tribution, the value of H in itself does not define the velocity distribution. Thedata collected by Grusehwitz'" and by Tetervin-" show experimentally that the velocity distributions in turbulent boundary layers actually form a one-parameter family of curves and that the velocity distributions can be specified by the value of H. Velocity profiles for turbulent boundary layersl 35 are presented for various values of H in Fig. 48. The value of H increases as the separation point is approached. It is not possible to give an exact value of H corresponding to separation, because the turbulent separation point is not very well defined. The value of H varies so rapidly near the separation 'point, however, that it is not necessary to fix accurately the value of H corresponding to separation. Separation has not been observed for a value of H less than 1.8 and appears definitely to have been observed for a value of H of 2.6. An empirical expression was found 135 for the rate of change of H along the surface in terms of the ratio of the pressure gradient to the skin friction and the shape parameter itself.' The following equation was derived to fit the experimental data: 8 -dH = e4.680 (H dx 2.975) Q2q - 2.03::>(H [8d ,.. - 1.286) ] - - - - qdx (5.26) T The skin friction corresponding to a given value of R6 may be obtained from Fig. 47 or from Eqs.

Velocity diatributions in turbulent boundary layers. for SOme particular cases, the equations may be integrated directly. The method of calculation is as follows. The values of the variables entering into the computation at the initial station are substituted in the momentum equation (5.11) and the equation for dH/dx (5.26). Values for d8/dx and dH/dx are thus obtained at the initial station. An increment of the length THE EFFECTS or VISCOSITY 105 along the surface of the body x is then chosen and multiplied by d8/dx and dH /dx to give aO and 1::Jl, respectively. These increments of 8 and H are added to the initial values and result in values of 8 and H for the ne-w value of x, The process is repeated until the separation point is reached, as shown by the value of H. For the purposes of the computations the value of H corresponding to separation may be taken as 2.6. The choice of the increments of x is a matter for the judgment of the investigator. AB a general rule, the increment of x should be made small when d8/dx or dH/dx changes rapidly from one value of x to the next. 5.12. Transition from Laminar to Turbulent Flow. Experience has shown that transition from laminar to turbulent flow takes place at a Rey­ nolds number that depends upon the magnitude of the disturbances. For viscous flows at very low Reynolds numbers, as in oil, all disturbances are damped out by the viscosity, and the flow is laminar regardless of the magnitude of any disturbance. .As the Reynolds -number is increased, a condition is reached at which some particular types of disturbances are amplified and eventually cause transition. This value of the Reynolds number is called the U lower critical." Further increase of the Reynolds number causes amplification to occur for a greater variety of disturbances and increases the rate of amplification. Under these circumstances the Reynolds number at which transit.ion occurs depends 011 the magnitude of the disturbances. Transition can he delayed to high values of the Reynolds number only by reducing all disturbances such as stream turbu­ lence, unsteadiness, and surface roughness to a minimum. For ftO\VS in a pipe, the lower value of the critical Reynolds number based on the diameter and tho mean velocity is about 2,300.98 The upper value appears to depend only on the care taken in conducting the experiment, and values twenty times as great as the lower value have been obtained. I t has been found possible 99 • 100. 127,128 to compute the rate of amplification or damping of disturbances of various frequencies and wave lengths.

Such a plot is given in Fig. 49. Experimental points obtained by Schubauer and Skramstad'P are also plotted in Fig. 49. The data of Fig. 49 were obtained for a Blasius profile corresponding to flow over a flat plate. It will be noted that there is a Reynolds number below which no disturbance will be amplified. This value of the Reynolds number is the lower critical. The agreement between the experimental and theoretical results is good considering the difficulties of the experimental work and the simplifying assumptions made in the development of the theory. Similar calculations have been made by Schlichting and Ulrich'?' for Pohlhausen's velocity profiles corresponding to various pressure gradients. THEORY OF WING SECTIONS 106 The results are presented in Fig. 50, which is a plot of the lower critical Reynolds number against the parameter X that defines the velocity distri­ bution through the laminar layer.

The theory has not been developed to such a point that it can be used to predict transition, although it is useful in pointing out the fundamental reasons for the instability of the laminar layer at high Reynolds numbers. The theory does not relate the boundary-layer disturbances to either the THE EFFECTS OF VISCOSITY 107 .surface irregularities or the turbulence of the air stream.

The empirical data are discussed in Chap. 7. 6.13. Calculation of Profile Drag. In cases where it is known that the. flow is not separated from the surface, the boundary-layer thickness at the trailing edge of a wing section and the profile drag can be calculated from a knowledge of the potential-flow pressure distribution and the location of transition from laminar to turbulent flow, The momentum thickness of the laminar boundary layer at the transition point can be calculated from Eq. (5.12). The initial momentum thickness of the turbulent boundary layer is taken to be the same as that of the laminar layer at the transition point. The thickness of the turbulent boundary layer at the trailing edge can be calculated from Eq. (5.25) .

The results of the skin-friction calculations are pre­ sented in Fig. 53 for the case of no heat transfer to the plate and for the case of a plate whose absolute temperature is one-quarter of that of the free stream. These results show a moderate decrease in laminar skin friction with increasing Mach number. Although these results indicate that the laminar skin friction increases with beat transfer from the fluid to the plate, this increase is small even for the extremely 10"" plate temper­ atures for which these results were obtained. For the turbulent boundar)' layer, Theodorsen and Regier!" found ex­ perimentally that the skin friction is independent of the Mach number (at least up to a value of 1.69).

These data were obtained by measuring the torques (moments) required to rotate smooth disks in atmospheres of air and Freon 12 (CCI2F2) at various pressures.

Int:"oduction. Until recently the development of wing sections has been almost entirely empirical. Very early tests indicated the desirability of a rounded leading edge and of a sharp trailing edge. The demand for improved wings for early airplanes and the lack of any generally accepted wing theory led to tests of large numbers of wings with shapes gradually improving as the result of experience. The Effie! and early RAF series were outstanding examples of this approach to the problem. 111 THEORY OF WING SECTIONS 112 The gradual development of wing theory tended to isolate the wing­ section problem from the effects of plan form and led to a more systematic experimental approach. The tests made at Gottingen during the First World War contributed much to the development of modem types of wing sections. Up to about the Second World War, most wing sections in common use were derived from more or less direct extensions of the 'york at Gottingen. During this period, many families of wing sections were tested in the laboratories of various countries, but the 'York of the NACA was outstanding.

The wing sections now in common use are either N .~CA sections or have been strongly influenced by the NACA investigations. For this reason, and because the NACA sections form consistent families. detailed attention will be given only to modem NACA wing sections. 8.3. Method of Combining Mean Lines and Thickness Distributions. The cambered wing sections of all NACA families of wing sections con­ sidered here are obtained by combining a mean line and a thickness distribution. The process for combining a mean line and a thickness distribution to obtain the desired cambered wing section is illustrated in Fig. 55. The leading and trailing edges are defined as the forward and FAMILIES OF WING SECTIONS 113 rearward extremities, respectively, of the mean line. The chord line is defined as the straight line connecting the leading and trailing edges. Ordinates of the cambered lying sections are obtained by laying off the thickness distributions perpendicular to the mean lines. The abscissas, ordinates, and slopes of the mean line are designated as Xc, Ye, and tan 8, respectively. If Xu and Yu represent, respectively, the abscissa and ordi­ nate of a typical point of the upper surface of the wing section and y, is the ordinate of the symmetrical thickness distribution at ehordwise position %, the upper-surface coordinates are given by the following relations: Xv = :r - y, sin 9 } yv = Yc + y, cos " (6.1) The corresponding expressions for the lower-surface coordinates are XL = X + Yt sin 8 } YL = Ye - Yt cos 8 (6.1) The center for the leading-edge radius is found by drawing a line through the end of the chord at the leading edge with a slope equal to the slope of the mean line at that point and laying off a distance from the leading edge along this line equal to t.he leading-edge radius. This method of con­ struction causes the cambered wing sections to project slightly forward of the leading-edge point. Beeause the slope at the leading edge is theoreti­ cally infinite for the mean lines having a theoretically finite load at the leading edge, the slope of the radius through the end of the chord for such mean lines is usually taken as t.he slope of the mean line at x/c equals 0.005. This procedure is ~ustified by the manner in which the slope increases to the theoretically infinite value as x/c approaches o. The slope increases slowly until very small values of x/c are reached. Large values of the slope are thus limited to values x/c very close to 0 and may be neglected in practical wing-section design. ­ or The data required to construct some cambered wing sections are pre­ sented in Appendixes I and II, and ordinates for a number of cambered sections are presented in Appendix lll. 6.4:. NACA Four-digit Vmg Sections. a. Thickness Distributions. "'hen the N ACA four-digit wing sections were derived.P it was found that the thickness distributions of efficient wing sections such as the Gottingen 398 and the Clark Y were nearly the same when their camber was removed (mean line straightened) and they were reduced to the same maximum thickness. The thickness distribution for the NAC~4\. four-digit sections was selected to correspond closely to that for these wing sections and is \' given by the following equation: ±'Yt,=_t- (O.29G90·~-O.12600x-O.35160x2+0.28430r-O.l0150zC)(6.2) 0.20 THEORY OF WING SECTIONS 114 where t == maximum thickness expressed as a fraction of the chord The leading-edge radius is r, = 1.1019t2 (6.3) It will be noted from Eqs. (6.2) and (6.3) that the ordinate at any point is directly proportional to the thickness ratio and that the leading-edge radius varies 88 the square of the thickness ratio. Ordinates for thickness ratios of 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21, and 24 per cent are given in Appendix I. b. Mean Line«. In order to study systematically the effect of variation of the amount of camber and the shape of the mean line, the shape of the mean lines was expressed analytically as two parabolic arcs tangent at the position of maximum mean-line ordinate. The equations" defining the mean lines were taken to be m Yt: :;: p;. (2px - x 2 ) forward of maximum ordinate and (6.4) Yc = m (1 _ p)t [(1 - 2p) + 2px - r] aft of maximum ordinate where m = maximum ordinate of mean line expressed as fraction of chord p == chordwise position of maximum ordinate It will be noted that the ordinates at all points on the mean line vary directly with the maximum ordinate. Data defining the geometry of mean lines with the maximum ordinate equal to 6 per cent of the chord are presented in Appendix II for chord,vise positions of the maximum ordinate of 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, and 70 per cent of the chord.. c.. Numbering System. The numbering system for NACA wing sections of the four-digit series is based on the section geometry. The first integer indicates the maximum value' of the mean-line ordinate Yc in per cent of the chord. The second integer indicates the distance from the leading edge to the location of the maximum camber in tenths of the chord. The last two integers indicate the section thickness in per cent of the chord.. Thus the NACA 2415 wing section has 2 per cent camber at 0.4 of the chord from the leading edge and is 15 per cent thick. The first two integers taken together define the mean line, for example, the NACA 24 mean line. Symmetrical sections are designated by zeros for the first two integers, as in the case of the NACA 0015 wing section, and are the thickness distributions for the family. d. Approximate Theoretical Characteristic8. Values of (V/V)2, which is equivalent to the low-speed pressure distribution, and values of v/V are presented in Appendix I for the NACA 0006, 0009, 0012, 0015, 0018, 0021, and 0024 wing sections at zero angle of attack. These values were cal­ culated by the method of Sec. 3.6. Values of the velocity increments AIl.IV induced by changing angle of sttaok are also presented for an FAMILIES OF WING SECTIONS 115 additional Iift coefficient of approximately unity. Values of the velocity ratio v/V for intermediate thickness ratios may be obtained approximately by_linear scaling of the velocity Increments obtained from the tabulated values of v/V for the nearest thickness ratio; thus (!!.V.)" = [(~) 1 II 1J ~ + 1 t1 (6.5) Values of the velocity increment ratio ~vc/V may be obtained for inter­ mediate thicknesses by interpolation.

These values were calculated by the method of Sec. 3.6. The tabulated values for each mean line may be" assumed to vary linearly with the maximum ordinate Ye; and data for similar mean lines with different amounts of camber, within the usual range, may be obtained simply by scaling the tabulated values. Data for the NACA 22 mean line may thus be obtained simply by multiplying the data for the NACA 62 mean line by the ratio 2:6, and for the X.~CA 44 mean line by multiplying the data for the N.t\CA 64 mean line by the ratio 4:6. Approximate theoretical pressure distributions may be obtained for cambered lying sections from the tabulated data for the thickness forms and mean lines by the method presented in Sec. 4.5. 6.6. NACA Five-digit Wlng Sections. 4. Thickne&8 Distributions. The thickness distributions for the NAC.A~ five-digit wing sections are the same as for the NACA four-digit sections (see Sec. 6.4a). b. Mean. Lines. The results of tests of the N.&-\.CA four-digit series wing sections indicated that the maximum lift coefficient increased as the posi­ tion of maximum camber was shifted either forward or a~t of approximately the mid-chord position. The rearward positions of maximum camber were not of much interest because of large pitching-moment coefficients. Be­ cause the type of mean line used for the NACA four-digit sections was not suitable for extreme forward positions of the maximum camber, a new series of mean lines was developed, and the resulting sections are the NACA five-digit series. . The mean lines are defined 46 by two equations derived so as to produce shapes having progressively decreasing curvatures from the leading edge aft. The curvature decreases to zero at a point slightly aft of the position of maximum camber and remains zero from this point to the trailing edge. The equations for the mean line are Yc = ~kl[x3 - 3mx2 + m2(3 - m)x] from x = 0 to z = ml y.; = %k1m3(l - x) from x = m to oX = c = l~ (6 6) . THEORY OF WING SECTIONS 116 The values of m were determined to give five positions p of maximum camber, namely, 0.000, O.IOc, O.ISe. O.2Oc, and O.25c. Values of k1 were initially calculated to give a design lift coefficient of 0.3. The resulting values of p, m, and k1 are given in the following table.

Data for the mean lines tabulated in the foregoing table are presented in Appendix II. c. Numbering System. The numbering system for wing sections of the N..\ CA five-digit series is based on a combination of theoretical aerodynamic characteristics and geometric characteristics. The first integer indicates the amount of camber in terms of the relative magnitude of the design lift coefficient; the design lift coefficient in tenths is thus three-halves of the first integer. The second and third integers together indicate the distance from the leading edge to the location of the maximum camber; this distance in per cent of the chord is one-half the number represented by these .-integers. The last two integers indicate the section thickness in per cent of the chord. The NACA 23012 wing section thus has a design lift coefficient of O.3 J has its maximum camber at 15 per cent of the chord: and has a thickness ratio of 12 per cent. d. Approximate Theoretical Characteristics. The theoretical aerody­ namic characteristics of the N ACA five-digit series wing sections may be obtained by the same method as that previously described (Sec. 6.4<1) for the NACA four-digit series sections using the data presented in Appen­ dixes I and II. 6.6. Modified NACA Four- and Five-digit Series Wing Sections. Some early modifications of the NACA four-digit series wing section· included thinner nosed and blunter nosed sections which were denoted by the suffixes T and B, respectively. Some sections of this family49 with refiexed mean lines were designated by numbers of the type 2R112 and 2R212, where the first integer indicates the maximum camber in per cent of the chord and the subscripts 1 and 2 indicate small positive and negative moments, respectively. Another series of N ACA five-digit wing sections" is the same as those previously described except that the mean lines are reflexed to produce theoretically zero pitching moment, These sections are distinguished by FAMILIES OF JV[.;V'G SECTIONS 117 .he third integer, which is always 1 instead of o. These modified sections lave been little used and will not be discussed further. More important modifications common to both the NACA four-digit md five-digit series wing sections consisted of systematic variations of the hickness distributions. 1M These modifications are indicated by a suffix -onsisting of a dash and two digits as for the NACA 0012-64 or the 23012-64 sections, These modifications consist essentially of changes of the leading­ edge radius from the normal value [Eq. (6.3)] and changes of the position of maximum thickness from the normal position at 0.3Oc [Eq. (6.2)]. The first integer following the dash indicates the relative magnitude of the leading-edge radius. The normal leading-edge radius is designated by 6 and j, sharp leading edge by o. The leading-edge radius varies as the square of this integer except for values larger than 8, when the variation becomes ]xbitrary.U6 The second integer following the dash indicates the position of maximum thickness in tenths of the chord. The suffix -63 indicates sec­ tions very nearly but not exactly the same as the sections without the suffix. The modified thickness forms are defined by the following two equations: ± y, := aov'X + alX + ll2X2 + a~ ahead of maximum thickness } () 7' :l:Yt==do+dl(1-x)+d2(1-x)~d3(1-x)3 aft of maximum thickness (.)

The data presented may be used together with data for the desired type of mean line to obtain approximate theoretical characteristics by the method presented in Sec. 4.5. The family of N ACA wing sections defined by these equations has been studied extensively by German aerodynamicists, who have applied designa­ tions of the following type to these sections: NACA 1.8 25 14-1.1 30/0.50 where 1.8 = maximum camber in per cent of chord 25 = location of maximum camber in per cent of the chord from the leading edge 14 = maximum thickness in per cent of the chord 1.1 = leading-edge radius parameter, r/t,2 30 = location of maximum thickness in per cent of the chord from the leading edge 0.50 == trailing-edge angle parameter, (l/t)(tan T/2) and t = thickness ratio T = leading-edge radius, fraction of chord T = trailing-edge angle (included angle between the tangents to the upper and lower surfaces at the trailing edge) For wing sections having this designation, the selected values of the leading-edge radius and of the trailing-edge angle are used directly with the other conditions in obtaining the coefficients of Eq. (6.7)~ The selected values for the maximum camber and location of maximum camber are applied to Eq. (6.4) to obtain the corresponding mean line. 6.7. NACA l-series W-mg Sections. The NACA l-eeries wing sec­ tionsG- 113 represent the first attempt to develop sections having desired types of pressure distributions and are the first family of NACA low-drag high-critical-speed wing sections. In order to meet one of the require­ ments for extensive laminar boundary layers, and to minimize the induced velocities, it was desired to locate th~ minimum-pressure point unusually far back on both surfaces and to have a small continuously favorable pressure gradient from the leading edge to the position of minimum pres­ sure. The development of these wing sections (prior to 1939) was ham­ pered by the lack of adequate theory, and difficulties ,,:ere experienced in obtaining the desired pressure distribution over more than a very limited range of lift coefficients. As compared with later sections, the N .~C.A. I-series wing sections are characterized by sOla).lleading-edge radii, com­ paratively large trailing-edge angles, and slightly higher critical speeds for a given thickness ratio. These sections have proved useful for pro­ pellers. The only commonly used sections of this series have the minimum pressure located at 60 per cent of the chord from the leading edge, and data "ill be presented only for these sections. FAMILIES OF WING SECTIONS 119 o. Thickne88 Distributions. Ordinates for thickness distributions with the minimum pressure located at 0.6c and thickness ratios of 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, and 21 per cent are presented in Appendix I. These data are similar in form to those presented for the KACA four-digit series. These sections were not developed from any analytical expression. The ordinate at any station is directly proportional to the thickness ratio, and sections of intermediate thickness may be correctly obtained by scaling the ordinates. b. Mean Lines. The NACA l-series wing sections, as commonly used, are cambered with a mean line of the uniform-load type [Eq. (4.26)]. Data for the mean line are tabulated in Appendix II. Thi, type of mean line was selected because, at the design lift coefficient, it does not change the shape of the pressure distribution of the symmetrical section at zero lift. This mean line also imposes minimum induced velocities for a give~ design lift coefficient. c. Numbering System. The N.A.CA l-series wing sections are designated by a five-digit number as, for example, the N ACA 16-112 section. The first integer represents the series designation. The second integer represents the distance in tenths of the chord from the leading edge to the position of minimum pressure for the symmetrical section at zero lift. The first Dum­ ber following the dash indicates the amount of camber expressed in terms of the design lift coefficient in tenths, and the last t\VO numbers together indicate the thickness in per cent of the chord. The commonly used sections of this family have minimum pressure at 0.6 of the chord from the leading edge and are usually referred to as the Nl\.CA 16-series sections. d. Approximate Theoretical CharacleristiC8. The theoretical aerody­ namic characteristics of the NACA l-series wing sections may be obtained by application of the method of Sec. 4.5 to the data of Appendixes I and II by the same method as that described for the NACA four-digit wing sections (Sec. 6.4d). 6.8. KACA &-series Wmg SectioDS. Successive attempts to design wing sections by approximate theoretical methods led to families of wing sections designated NACA 2- to 5-series sections." Experience with these sections showed that none of the approximate methods tried was sufficiently accurate to show correctly the effect of changes in profile near the leading edge. Wind-tunnel and flight tests of these sections showed that extensive laminar boundary. layers could be maintained at comparatively large valdes of the Reynolds number if the wing surfaces were sufficiently fair and smooth. These tests also provided qualitative information on the effects of the magnitude of the favorable pressure gradient, leading-edge radius, and other shape variables. The data a~ showed that separation of the turbulent boundary layer over the rear of the section, especially with rough surfaces, limited the extent of laminar layer for which the lying sections should be designed. The wing sections of these early families generally showed relatively low maximum lift coefficients and, in many 120 THEORY OF WING SECTIONS cases were designed for a greater extent of laminar flow than is practical. It w~ learned that, although sections designed for an excessive extent of laminar flow gave extremely low drag coefficients near the design lift coefficient when smooth, the drag of such sections became unduly large when rough, particularly at lift coefficients higher than the design value. These families of lying sections are accordingly considered obsolete. The NACA 6-series basic thickness forms were derived by new and improved methods described in Sec. 3.8, in accordance with design criteria established with the objective of obtaining desirable drag, critical Mach number, and maximum-lift characteristics. a. Thick"neB8 Distributions. Data for NACA 6-series thickness dis­ tributions covering a wide range of thickness ratios and positions of minimum pressure are presented in Appendix I. These data are com­ parable with the similar data for wing sections of the NACA four-digit series (Sec. 6.4a) except that ordinates for intermediate thickness ratios may not be correctly obtained by scaling the tabulated ordinates proportional to the thickness ratio. This method of changing the ordinates by a factor w ill, however, produce shapes satisfactorily approximating members of the family if the change of thickness ratio is small. b. Mean Lines. The mean lines commonly used with the NAC_.\. 6-series wing sections produce a uniform chordwise loading from the leading edge to the point x/c = a, and a linearly decreasing load from this point to the trailing edge. Data for NACA mean lines with values of a equal to 0, 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, 0.5,0.6, 0.7, 0.8, 0.9, and 1.0 are presented in Appendix II. The ordinates were computed from Eqs. (4.26) and (4.27). The data are presented for a design lift coefficient e" equal to unity. All tabulated values vary directly with the design lift coefficient. Corresponding data for similar mean lines with other design lift coefficients may accordingly be obtained simply by multiplying the tabulated values by the desired design lift coefficient. In order to camber NACA 6-series wing sections, mean lines are usually used having values of a equal to or greater than the distance from the leading edge to the location of minimum pressure for the selected thickness distributions at zero lift. For special purposes, load distributions other than those corresponding to the simple mean lines may be obtained by combining two or more types of mean line having positive or negative values of the design lift coefficient. c. NtUmbering System. The NACA 6-series wing sections are usually designated by a six-digit number together with a statement showing the type of mean line used. For example, in the designation NACA 65,3-218, a == 0.5, the 6 is the series designation. The 5 denotes the chordwise posi­ tion of minimum pressure in tenths of the chord behind the leading edge for the basic symmetrical section at zero lift. The 3 following the comma FAJIILIES OF n'IlVG SECTIONS 121 ives the range of lift coefficient in tenths above and below the design lift oefficient in which favorable pressure gradients exist on both surfaces. 'he 2 following the dash gives the design lift coefficient in tenths. The .LSt two digits indicate the thickness of the lying section in per cent of the horde The designation a = 0.5 shows the type of mean line used. When he mean-line designation is not given, it is understood that the uniform­ oad mean line (a = 1.0) has been used. When the mean line used is obtained by combining more than one mean ine, the design lift coefficient used in the designation is the algebraic sum )f the design lift coefficients of the mean lines used, and the mean lines are Jescribed in the statement following the number as in the following case: {a cs, NAC.A. 65 3-218 = 0.5 = 0.3 } , a = 1.0 ci, = - 0.1 Wing sections having a thickness distribution obtained by linearly increasing or decreasing the ordinates of one of the originally derived thick­ ness distributions are designated as in the following example: N.~CA 65(318)-217 a = 0.5 The significance of all the numbers except those in the parentheses is the same as before. The first number and the lust two numbers enclosed in the parentheses denote, respectively, the low-drag range and the thickness in per cent of the chord of the originally derived thickness distribution. The more recent XACA 6-series wing sections are derived as members of thickness families having a simple relationship between the conformal transformations for 'ling sections of different thickness ratios but having minimum pressure at the same chordwise position. These wing sections are distinguished from the earlier individually derived wing sections by writing the number indicating the Jew-drag range as a subscript, for example, N4~C.A. oor 218 a == 0.5 Ordinates for the basic thickness distributions designated by a subscript are slightly different from those for the corresponding individually derived thickness distributions. As before, if the ordinates of the basic thickness distributions arc changed by a factor, the low-drag range and thickness ratio of the original thickness distribution are enclosed in parentheses as Iollows: X.:\C..\ 65(311)-217 a = 0.5 For wing sections having a thickness ratio less than 12 per cent, the low-drag range is less than 0.1 and the subscript denoting this range is omitted from the designation, thus N .t\C..-\ 65-210 or 122 THEORY OF WING SECTIONS The latter designation indicates that the 11 per cent thick section was obtained by linearly scaling the ordinates of the 10 per cent thick sym­ metrical section. If the design lift coefficient in tenths or the thickness of the wing section in per cent of the chord are not whole integers, the numbers giving these quantities are usually enclosed in parentheses as in the following example: NACA 65(318)-(1.5)(16.5) a == 0.5 Some early experimental wing sections are designated by the insertion of the letter x immediately preceding the dash as in the designation 66,22:-015. Some modifications of the NACA 6-series sections are designated by replacing the dash by a capital letter, thus NACA 641A212 -In this case, the letter indicates both the modified thickness distribution and the type of mean line used to camber the section. Sections designated by the letter A are substantially straight on both surfaces from about 0.8c to the trailing edge. d. Approximate Theoretical Characteri8ticB. Approximate theoretical characteristics may be obtained by applying the methods of Sec. 4.5 to the data of Appendixes I and II as described for the NACA four-digit series sections in Sec. 6.4d. If t\VO or more of the simple mean lines are com­ bined to camber the desired section, data for the resulting mean line may be obtained by algebraic addition of the scaled values for the component mean lines. 8.9. NACA 7-series W-mg Sections. The NACA 7-series wing sections are characterized by a greater extent of possible laminar flow on the lower than on the upper surface. These sections permit low pitching-moment coefficients with moderately high design lift coefficients at the expense of some reduction of maximum lift and critical Mach number. The N ACA 7-series 'ling sections are designated by a number of the following type: NACA 747...\315 The first number 7 indicates the series number. The second number 4 indicates the extent over the upper surface, in tenths of the chord from the le&ding edge, of the region of favorable pressure gradient at the design lift coefficient. The third number 7 indicates the enent over the lower surface, in tenths of the chord from the leading edge, of the region of favorable pressure gradient at the design lift coefficient. The significance of the last group of three numbers is the same as for the NAC..~ 6-series wing sections. The letter A which follows the first three numbers is 8 seria1letter to distinguish different sections having parameters that would FAMILIES OF WING SEC7 1/ONS 123 correspond to the same numerical designation. For example, a second' section having the same extent of favorable pressure gradient over the upper and lower surfaces, the same design lift coefficient, and the same thickness ratio 88 the original lying section but having a different mean­ line combination or thickness distribution would have the serial letter B. Mean lines used for the NACA 7-series sections are obtained by combining t\VO or more of the previously described mean lines. The basic thickness distribution is given a designation similar to those of the final cambered wing sections. For example, the basic thickness distribution for the NACA 747A315 and 747A415 sections is given the designation NACA .747A015 even though minimum pressure occurs at O.4c on both the upper and lower surfaces at zero lift. Data for this thickness distribution are presented in Appendix I. The NACA 747A315 lying section is cambered with the following com­ bination of mean lines: a == 0.4 { a == 0.7 e'i == 0.763 } eli == - 0.463 The NACA 747..\415 wing section is cambered with the following com­ bination of mean lines: a == 0 4 . a == O~7 { a == 1.0 C" == 0.763 } ci, = - 0.463 c.; = 0.100 8.10. Special Combinations of Thickness and Camber. The methods presented for combining thickness distributions and mean lines are suffi­ ciently flexible to permit combining any thickness distribution, regardless of family, with any mean line or combination of mean lines. Approximate theoretical characteristics of such combinations may be obtained by ap­ plication of the method of Sec. 4.5 to the tabulated data. In this manner, it is possible to approximate a"'considerable variety of pressure distributions without deriving new lying sections. CHAPTER 7 EXPERIMENTAL CHARACTERISTICS OF WING SECTIONS 7.1.

Introduction. The theories presented in Chaps. 3 to 5 permit reasonably accurate calculations to be made of certain characteristics of wing sections, but the simplifying assumptions made in the development of these theories limit their over-all applicability. For instance, the perfect­ fluid theories of Chaps. 3 and 4 permit the pressure distribution to be calcu­ lated," provided that the effects of the boundary-layer flo,v on the pressure distribution are small. Similarly the viscous theories of Chap. 5 permit the calculation of some of the boundary-layer conditions, provided that the pressure distribution is known, Obvious interactions between the viscous and potential flows are the relatively small effective changes of body shape caused by. the displacement thickness of the unseparated boundary layer and the seriously large changes caused by separation. N one of the wing characteristics can be calculated with confidence if the flow is separated 124 EXPERIMENTAL CHARACTERISTICS OF WING SECTIONS 125 over an appreciable part of the surface. Under these circumstances, wing­ section characteristics used for design are obtained experimentally. Wind-tunnel investigations of wing characteristics were made before airplanes were successfully flown and still constitute an important phase of aerodynamic testing. Until recently wing characteristics were usually obtained from tests of models of finite aspect ratio, The development of lying theory led to the concept of wing-section characteristics that were derived from data obtained from tests of finite-aspect-ratio wings, These derived data were then used to predict the characteristics of wings of different plan forms. The systematic investigations in the N'AC..~ variable­ density wind tunnel46, 48, 49 were examples of this type of investigation. This method of testing is hampered by the difficulties of obtaining full-scale values of the Reynolds number and sufficiently low air-stream turbulence to duplicate flight conditions properly without excessive cost for equip­ ment and models. Other difficulties were experienced in properly correcting the data for the support tares and interference effects and in deriving the section characteristics from tests of models necessarily having varied span­ load distributions and tip effects.Go In order to avoid some of these difficulties and to permit testing of models that are large relative to the size of the wind tunnel, two-dimensional testing equipment was built by the X.t\C.i\. The X.:\(~..\ two-dimensional low-turbulence pressure tunneP33 provides facilities for testing wing sections in two-dimensional flowat large Reynolds numbers in an air stream of very )O\V turbulence, approaching that of the atmosphere. The wing-section data presented here were obtained from tests in this tunnel. This tunne}1D has a test section 3 feet wide and 7~~ feet high and is capable of operation at pressures up to 10 atmospheres. The usual models are of 2-foot chord and completely span the 3-foot width of the test section. The lift is measured by integration of pressures representing the reaction on the floor and ceiling of the tunnel. The drag is obtained from wake­ survey measurements, and the pitching moments are measured directly by a balance. "~ing-section characteristics can be obtained from such measurements with a high degree of accuracy. The usual test.s were made over a range of Reynolds numbers from 3 t.o 9 million and at Mach numbers less than about 0.17.· This range of Reynolds numbers covers the range where large-scale effects are usually experienced between the usual low-seale test data and the large-scale flight range. Individual tests have been made to provide some data at lower Reynolds numbers applicable to small personal airplanes and at much larger Reynolds numbers to indicate trends for very large airplanes­ The tunnel turbulence level is very low, of the order of a few hundredths of 1 per cent; and, although it is not definitely known that the remaining turbulence is negligible, the tunnel results appear to correspond closely to 126 THEORY OF WING SECTIONS eo 3 .6 A .. ~ Q ~.)

Application of these wing-section data to the prediction of the characteristics of wings of finite span depends on the adequacy of three-dimensional \V~g theory. These data are not applicable at high speeds where compressibility effects become important. 7.3. Standard Aerodynamic Characteristics. The resultant force on a "ring section can be specified by t"90 components of force perpendicular and parallel to the air stream (the lift and drag, respectively) and by a moment in the plane of these t\VO forces (the pitching moment). These forces are functions of the angle of attack of the section. The standard method of presenting the characteristics of 'ling Sections is by means of plots of the lift, drag, and moment coefficients against angle of attack or, alternately, plots of angle of attack, drag, and moment coefficients against lift coefficient. Plots of wing-section characteristics are presented in Appendix IV for a wide range of shape parameters. On the left-hand side of each plot, the lift coefficient and the moment coefficient about the quarter-chord point are plotted against the angle of attack. On the right-hand side of each plot the drag coefficient and moment coefficient about the aerodynamic center are plotted against the lift coefficient. In most cases, the data indicated in the following table are presented. Surface condition Charneteristie Split flap deflection degrees Reynolds number, millions Left-hand side Lift tift Lift . . .

Lift Characteristics. 4. Angle of Zero lift. As indicated in Chap. 4, the angle of zero lift of a wing section is largely determined by the camber. The theory of wing sections provides a means for computing the angle of zero lift from the mean-line data presented in Appendix II. The agreement between the calculated and the experimental angles of zero lift EXPERIMENTAL CHARACTERISTICS OF WING SECTIONS 129 depends on the type of mean line used. Comparison of the theoretical data given in Appendix II 'lith the experimental data of Appendix IV shows that the agreement is good except for the uniform-load type (a = 1) of mean line. The angles of zero lift for this type of mean line are generally closer to 0 degrees than predicted. The experimental values of the angles of zero lift for a number of NACA four.. and five-digit and NACA C)-series wing sections are presented in Fig. 56. The thickness ratio of the wing section appears to have little effect on the angle of zero lift regardless of the type of thickness distribu­ tID -3_ -6 ~ '-t ..c .... o ; II -4 '-'4 o ol(.)

For the NACA four-digit series wing sections, the angles of zero lift are approximately 0.93 of the value given by the theory of thin wing sections. For the NACA 23o-serics wing sections, this factor is approximately 1.08; and for the X.\Cl\ f.)-~(~r ies sections with the uniform­ load type of mean line, this factor is approximately 0.74. b. L~Jt-curve Slope. Lift-curve slopes fOI" a number of NACA four- and five-digit series and KACA fJ-8Cri~ wing ~~·t.jons are plotted against thick­ ness ratio in Fig. 57. These values of the lift-curve slope were measured for a Reynolds number of 6 million at vulues of the lift coefficient approxi­ mately equal to the design lift coefficient of the wing sections. This lift coefficient is approximately in the center of the low-drag range for the NACA f>-Series wing sections. In the range of thickness-ratios from (i to 10 per cent, the NACA four­ and five-digit series and the XAC.-\ 64-series wing sections have values of the lift-curve slope very close to the value given by the theory of thin wing sections (2... per radian, or 0.110 per degree).

Increasing the Reynolds number from 3 to 9 million results in an increase of the maximum lift coefficient of approximately 0.15 to 0.20. The scale effect on the NACA 00- and 14­ series sections having thickness ratios of 0.12c and less is very small. The scale-effect data for the NACA 6-series wing sections (Figs. 60c to e) do not show an entirely systematic variation. In general, the scale effect is favorable for these sections. For the NACA 64-series wing sections, the increase of maximum lift coefficient with increase of Reynolds number is generally small for thickness ratios less than 12 per cent, but it is some­ what larger for the thicker sections. The character of the scale effect for the NACA 65- and 66-series wing sections is similar to that for the NACA 64-series, but the trends are not so well defined. The scale effect for the NACA 6-series wing sections cambered for a design lift coefficient of 0.4 or 0.6 is greater than that for these sections with less camber. The data of Fig. 61 show that the maximum lift coefficient for the NACA 63(420)-422 section continues to increase with Reynolds number up to values of at least 26 million. The values of the maximum lift coefficient presented are for steady con­ ditions. It is known that the maximum lift coefficient increases with the rate of change of angle of attack. tOto The significant par~eteris (daoldt) (cjV). Even such low rates of change of angle of attack as those encountered in landing flares produce increases of the maximum lift coefficient. d. Effect of Surface Condition on Lift Characteri8tics. It has long been known that surface roughness, especially near the leading edge, has large effects on the characteristics of lying sections. The maximum lift coeffi­ cient, in particular, is sensitive to leading-edge roughness. The effect on maximum lift coefficient of various degrees of roughness applied to the leading edge of the NACA 63(420)-422 wing section is shown in Fig. 62. The maximum lift coefficient decreases progressively with increasing roughness. For a given surface condition at the leading edge, the max­ imum lift coefficient increases slowly with increasing Reynolds number (Fig. 63). Figure 64 shows that roughness strips located more than about O.2Oc from the leading edge have little effect on the maximum lift coefficient or lift-curve slope. It is desirable to determine the relative effects of leading-edge rough­ ness on various wing sections. In order to make a systematic investigation of this sort, it is necessary to select a standard form of roughness. The standard leading-edge roughness selected by the NACA for 24-inch chord models' consisted of 0.01I-inch carborundum grains applied to the surface of the model at the leading edge over a surface length of 0.0& measured from the leading edge on both surfaces. The grains were thinly spread to cover 5 to 10 per cent of the area. This standard roughness is considerably THEORY OF WING SECTIONS 144 2.8 2.0 1.6 ... ...

Maximum-lift-coefficient data at a Reynolds number of 6 million for a large number of NACA wing sections are presented in Figs. 58 and 59. The variation of maximum lift coefficient with thickness for the NACA four- and five-digit series wing sections with standard roughness shows the same trends as those for the smooth sections except that the values are considerably reduced for all these sections other than the NACA OO-series of 6 per cent thickness. The values of the maximum lift coefficient for these rough sections with thickness ratios greater than 12 per-cent are sub­ stantially the same for a given thickness. Much less variation of maximum lift coefficient with thickness ratio is shown by the NACA 6-series wing sections in the rough condition than in the smooth condition. The varia­ tion of maximum lift coefficient with camber, however, is about the same for the wing sections with standard roughness as for the smooth sections. The maximum lift coefficients of rough wing sections decrease with rear­ ward movement of the position of minimum pressure; and, as in the smooth condition, the optimum thickness ratio for maximum lift increases with rearward movement of the position of minimum pressure. The NACA 64-series wing sections cambered for a design lift coefficient of 0.4 have maximum lift coefficients consistently higher than the NACA 24-, 44-, and 23o-series sections of comparable thickness when rough, with the exception of the NACA 4412. For normal wing sections, the angle of zero lift is practically unaffected by the standard leading-edge roughness. The results presented in Ap­ pendix IV show that the effect of roughness is to decrease the lift-curve slope for wing sections having thickness ratios of 18 per cent or more. The effect increases with increase of thickness ratio. For lying sections less than 18 per cent thick, tile effect of roughness on the lift-curve slope is relatively small. '1.6. Drag Characteristics. a. Minimum Drag of Smooth: Wing Sections. The value of the minimum drag coefficient for smooth lying sections is mainly a function of the Reynolds number and the relative extent of the laminar boundary layer, and it is moderately affected by thickness ratio and camber. If the extent of the laminar boundary layer is known, the minimum drag coefficient may be calculated with reasonable accuracy by the method presented in Sec. 5.13. The effect on minimum drag of the position of minimum pressure that determines the possible extent of laminar flow is shown in Fig. 65 for some N J.~CA 6-series wing sections. The data show a regular decrease of drag coefficient with rearward movement of minimum pressure. The variation EXPERIMENTAL CHARACTERISTICS OF WING SECTIONS 149 of minimum drag coefficient with Reynolds number for several wing sec­ tions is shown in Fig. 66. The drag coefficient generally decreases with increasing Reynolds number up to Reynolds numbers of the order of 20 million. Above this Reynolds number, the drag coefficient of the NACA 65(Gl)-420 section remains substantially constant up to a Reynolds number of nearly 40 million. The earlier increase of drag coefficient shown by the NACA 66(2%15)-116 section may be caused by surface irregularities because the specimen tested was a practical construction model. It may be noted that the drag coefficient for the NACA 65,-418 lying section at low Reynolds numbers is substantially higher than that of the NACA 0012 section, whereas at high Reynolds numbers the opposite is the case. The higher drag of the NACA 65,-418 wing section at low Reynolds numbers is caused by a relatively extensive region of laminar separation downstream from the point of minimum pressure. This region decreases in size with increasing Reynolds number. These data illustrate the inadequacy of low Reynolds number test data either to estimate the full-scale characteristics or to determine the relative merits of lying sections at flight values of the Reynolds number. The variation of the minimum drag coefficient with camber is shown in Fig. 67 for a number of smooth 18 per cent thick N .A.CA 6-series wing sections. These data show little change of minimum drag coefficient with increase of camber. A considerable amount of systematic data is included in Fig. 68 showing the variation of minimum drag coefficient with thickness ratio for some NACA wing sections ranging in thickness ratio from 6 to 24 per cent of the chord. The minimum drag coefficient is seen to increase with increase of thickness ratio for each series of wing sections. This in­ crease, however, is greater for the XACA four- and five-digit series lying sections (Fig. GSa) than for the NACA 6-series sections (Figs. 686, c, and d). b. Variation oj Profile Drag with Lift Coefficient. Most of the variation of drag with lift for "rings of finite span results from the induced-drag coefficient, which varies approximately as the square of the lift coefficient for a given wing configuration. It is important to keep the induced drag in mind when considering the variation of profile drag with lift, because the variation of the wing drag coefficient with lift coefficient will be largely determined by the induced drag, which is a function of the aspect ratio. At low and moderate lift coefficients where there is no appreciable separation of the flow, the drag is caused almost completely by skin fric­ tion. Under these circumstances, the value of the drag coefficient depends upon the relative extent of the laminar boundary layer and the induced velocities over the surfaces of the section and may be calculated by the method of Sec. 5.13. As the lift coefficient increases, the average square of the velocities over the surfaces increases, resulting in a. small drag increase even though the relative extent of laminar flow was not affected.

EXPERIMENTAL CHARACTERISTICS OF WING SECTIONS 151 more important effect of lift coefficient is to change the possible extent of laminar flow by moving the minimum-pressure points. In many of the older types of wing section, the forward movement of transition is gradual and the resulting variation of drag with lift coefficient occurs smoothly" The pressure distributions for the XACA 6-series wing sections are such as to cause transition to move forward suddenly at the end of the low-drag range of lift coefficients. A sharp increase of drag coefficient to the value corresponding to a forward location of transition on one of the surfaces results. Such sudden shifts of transition give the typical drag curve for these wing sections with a II sag" or ((bucket" in the low-drag range. The same characteristic is shown to a smaller degree by some of the earlier wing sections such as the NACA 23015 when tested in a low-turbulence air stream. The data presented in Appendix I for the NACA 6-series thickness forms show that the range of lift coefficients for low drag varies markedly with thickness ratio. It has been possible to design wing sections of 12 per cent thickness with a total theoretical low-drag range of lift coefficients of 0.2. This theoretical range increases b)" approximately 0.2 for each 3 per cent increase of thickness ratio. Figure 69 shows that the theoretical extent of the low-drag range is approximately realized at a Reynolds num­ ber of 9 million. Figure 69 also shows a characteristic tendency for the drag to increase to some extent toward the upper end of the low-drag range for moderately cambered wing sections, particularly for the thicker ones. All data for the KACA 6-serics wing sections show a decrease of the extent of the low-drag range "pith increasing Reynolds number. Extrapolation of the rate of decrease observed at Reynolds numbers below 9 million would indicate a vanishingly small low-drag range at flight values of the Reynolds number. Tests of a carefully constructed model of the NAC"'A 65(421)-420 section showed, however, that the rate of reduction of the low-drag range with increasing Reynolds number decreased markedly at Re)·001<18 num­ bers above 9 million (Fig, 70). These data indicate that the extent of the low-drag range for this wing section is reduced to about. one-half the theoretical value at a Reynolds numberof 35 million. The values of the lift coefficient for which low drag is obtained are de­ termined largely by the amount of cumber, The lift coefficient at the center of the low-drag range corresponds approximately to the design lift coefficient of the mean line. The effects on the drag characteristics of various amounts of camber are shown in Fig. 71" Section data indicate that the location of the low-drag range may' be shifted by even such crude camber changes as those caused by small deflections of 8 plain flap," The location of the low-drag range shows SODle variation from that pre­ dicted from the simple theory of thin wing sections.

The effect of thickness ratio is shown in Fig. 69 from which the center of the low-drag range is seen to shift to higher lift coefficients with increasing thickness ratio.

At the end of the low-drag range, the drag increases rapidly with increase of the lift coefficient.

For highly cambered sections for which the lift at the upper end of the low-drag range is already high, the drag coefficient shows a continued rapid in­ crease.

This scale effect is too large to be accounted for by the normal variation of skin friction and appears to be associated with the effect of Reynolds number on the onset of turbulent flow following laminar separation near the leading edge.1M A comparison of the drag characteristics of the XACA 23012 and of three NACA 6-series wing sections is presented in Fig. 73. The drag for the N.~CA 6-series sections is substantially lower than for the NACA 23012 section in the range of lift coefficients corresponding to high-speed flight, and this margin may usually be maintained through the range of lift EXPERIl.{ENTAL CHARACTERISTICS OF rVING SECTIONS 157 coefficients useful for cruising by suitable choice of camber. The NACA 6-series sections show the higher maximum values of the lift-drag ratio. At high values of the lift coefficient, however, the earlier NACA sections .generally have lower drag coefficients than the N ACA 6-series sections. c. Effect oj Surface Irregularities Oil Drag Characteristics. Numerous measurements of the effects of surface irregularities on the characteristics of wings have shown that the condition of the surface is one of the most important variables affecting the drag. Although a large part of the drag increment associated with surface roughness results from a forward move­ ment of transition, substantial drag increments result from surface rough­ ness in the region of turbulent flow." It is accordingly important to maintain smooth surfaces even when extensive laminar flow cannot be expected. The possible gains resulting from smooth surfaces are greater, however, for wing sections such as the XA(~A G-series than for sections where the extent of laminar flow is limited by a forward position of mini­ mum pressure, No accurate method of specifying the surface condition necessary for extensive laminar flow at high Reynolds numbers has been developed, although some general conclusions have been reached, It may be presumed that, for n given Reynolds number and chordwise location, the size of the permissible roughness will vary direct ly with the chord of the lying section. It is known, at one extreme, that the surfaces do not have to be polished or optically smooth. Such polishing or waxing hus shown no improvement in tesu,.3 in the Kf\CA two-dimensional low-turbulence tunnels when ap­ plied to satisfactorily sanded surfaces. Polishing or waxing a surface that is not aerodynamically smooth ,,;U, of course, result in improvement, and such finishes may be of considerable practical value be cause deterioration of the finish may be easily seen and possibly postponed. Large models having chord lengths of 5 to 8 feet tested in the NACA two-dimensional low-turbulence tunnels are usually finished by sanding in the ehordwise direction with Xo, 320 carborundum paper when an aerodynamically smooth surface is desired," Experience has shown the resulting finish to be satisfactory' at flight values of the Reynolds number. Any rougher surfuee texture should be considered as a possible source of transition, although slightly rougher surfaces have appeared to produce satisfactory results in some cases.. l.;oftin6S 8ho\\'00 that small protuberances extending above the general surface level of an otherwise satisfactory surface are more likely to cause transition Ulan are small depressions. Dust particles, for example, are more effective than small scratches in producing transition if the material at the edges of the scratches is not forced above the general surface level. Dust particles adhering to the oil left on wing surfaces by fingerprints may be expected to cause transition at high Reynolds numbers.

More difficulty is generally encountered in reducing the waviness to permissible values for the maintenance of laminar flow than in obtaining the required surface smoothness. In addition, the specification of the required fairness is more difficult than that of the required smoothness. The problem is not limited to finding the minimum wave size that will cause transition under given conditions because the number of waves and the shape of the waves require consideration. H the wave is sufficiently large to affect the pressure distribution in such a manner that laminar separation is encountered, there is little doubt that such a wave will cause premature transition at all useful Reynolds num­ bers. Relations between the dimensions of a wave and the pressure dis­ tribution may be found by the method suggested by Allen." If the pressure EXPERIMENTAL CHARACTERISTICS OF WING SECTIONS 165 distribution over the wave is known, the criteria for laminar separation discussed in Sec. 5.7 may be applied. The size of the wave required to reverse the pressure gradient increases with the pressure gradient.

If care is taken to obtain fair surfaces, normal tolerances may be used without causing serious alteration of the drag characteristics. If the wing surface is sufficiently rough to cause transition near the leading edge, large drag increases are to be expected even if the roughness is confined to the region of the leading edge. Figure 78 shows that, although the degree of roughness has some effect, the increment of minimum drag coefficient caused by the smallest roughness capable of producing transi­ tion is nearly as great as that caused by much larger grain roughness when the roughness is confined to the leading edge.! The degree of roughness has a much larger effect on the drag at high lift coefficients. If the roughness is sufficiently large to cause transition at all Reynolds numbers considered, EXPERIMENTAL CHARACTERISTICS OF WING SECTIONS 167 the drag of the wing with roughness only at the leading edge decreases with increasing Reynolds number.'

Such values may be regarded as typical for good American construction practice during the Second World War. Finishing the 800­ \ tions to produce smooth surfaces always resulted in substantial drag re­ ductions, although considerable waviness usually remained. None of the sections tested had fair surfaces at the front spar. Unless special care is taken to produce fair surfaces at the front spar, the resulting wave may be expected to cause transition either at the spar location or a short distance behind it. One practical-construction specimen tested with smooth surfaces maintained relatively low drags up to Reynolds numbers of approximately 30 million [NACA 66(2%15)-116 wing section of Fig. 66]. This specimen had no spar fonvard of about 35 per cent chord from the leading edge and no spanwise stiffeners forward of the spar. This type of construction resulted in unusually fair surfaces. Few data are available on the effect of propeller slipstream on transition or wing drag; the data that are available do not show consistent results. 0 11&0& - - a r- 0 l\1 ~ I ~ o ,\ •• 012 ....11• 1.008 66(21S)-U6. lOO-lDch Obor4. 0& 80A 25016. 1OO-lDeb 60N. 0, • :I &!Ii IllaA "C211i )-U' (n1Nllt . .1 J. 0.11) laoh obol'4. 0.19 IIICA 25016 ("bullt .04(:1), l00-1aob chON. 0, • 0.19 \~~\ C) - ~' I\. ~~ o eo . ~ ..,• I~ !.­ ., \ ~ "~ .A.~ .A ~ o & o FIG. o 28 8 85.

Even fewer data are available on the effects of vibration on transition. Tests in the X . .\ CA 8-foot high-speed tunnel 43 showed negligible effects, but the range of frequencies tested may not have been sufficient.ly wide to represent conditions encountered on airplanes. Some K .~(~.~ Hight data" showed small but consistent rearward movements of transition outside the slipstream when the propellers were feathered. This effect was noticed even when the propeller on the opposite side of the two-engined airplane was feathered, and it was accordingly attributed to vibration or noise. In THEORY OF WING SECTIONS 174 some cases, increases of drag have been noted in wind tunnels when the model or its supports vibrated. A tentative conclusion may be drawn from the meager data that vibration may cause small forward movements of transition on airplane wings, The skin friction associated with a turbulent boundary layer on a smooth surface decreases with increase of Reynolds number, as shown in Chap. 5.

Coefficient of resistance of rough and smooth tubes dependent on Reynolds number. numbers on rough surfaces. An explanation of this effect is that the pres­ sure drag of the individual protuberances constituting the roughness con­ tribute to the skin friction when they project through the laminar sublayer, The shapes of the individual protuberances are usually such that the scale effect on the pressure drag should be small. The result at large Reynolds numbers for generally roughened surfaces is that the skin-friction coeffi­ cient is essentially constant. The general nature of the scale effects for rough surfaces has been indicated b)' experiments in pipes." These data (Fig. 90) show that at lo"r Reynolds numbers the pipe-loss coefficient decreases with increasing Rey­ nolds number at the rate expected for laminar flow, When transition occurs, the pipe-loss coefficient increases to the value expected for tur­ bulent flow over smooth surfaces. For very small roughness, the pipe-loss coefficient decreases with increasing Reynolds number along the turbulent skin-friction curve for smooth surfaces until large values of the Reynolds number are reached. For any given size of roughness, however, there ap­ EXPERIMENTAL CHARACTERISPICS OF liTING SECTIONS 175 pears to be a Reynolds number beyond which the coefficient increases slightly to a constant value. The value of the Reynolds number decreases and the constant value of the coefficient increases as the grain size of the roughness increases. At large values of the Reynolds number, the rough­ ness causes large increments of skin friction over the values corresponding to smooth surfaces. On the basis of the pipe experiments and reasoning similar to the fore­ going, von KarmAn139 obtained a formula for the grain size just sufficiently large to affect turbulent skin friction. This formula may be written pl:k=3.<L p. f! V4 Reynolds number based on grain size of roughness and local 'vhere -pUk - ::: velocity outside boundary layer JI. c, = local skin-friction coefficient For a 'ling of approximately 9-foot chord at a speed of 300 feet per second, the limiting grain size is approximately 0.0004 inch and varies only slightly over the surface, increasing toward the trailing edge. The effect of roughness on the drag of wing sections with largely turbu­ lent flow is analogous to the effect in pipes as ShO\\·113 by Fig. 83. At the lower Reynolds numbers, the drag coefficient decreases with increasing Reynolds number at about the rate expected for turbulent flow over smooth surfaces, In this case, the drag remains essentially constant at Reynolds numbers above about 15 million. ...~t a Reynolds number of 70 million the increment of drag caused by the moderate roughness was of the order of one-quarter of the drag that would have been obtained had the favorable scale effect continued. The sensitivity of the turbulent boundary layer to roughness is so great that airplanes should not be expected to show favorable scale effects at large Reynolds numbers unless considerable care is taken to obtain smooth surfaces. It should be noted that, in contrast to the situation with respect to the laminar layer, it is relatively easy to obtain reductions of drag by attention to the surface conditions for turbulent flow. Even though the allowable size of the roughness is very small, each speck of roughness presumably contributes onI)" the drag of itself and does not have any appreciable effect on the skin friction over the surface downstream. Consequently favorable effects may be expected from careful finishing of the general surface of modem high-performance airplanes even though imperfections such as rivets and seams may be present. d. Unconsenxuioe li'ing Sections. The need for low drags in order to obtain long range for large airplanes flying at speeds below the critical Mach number leads to designs having high wing loadings to reduce the wing area and profile drag together with relatively )O\V span loadings to THEORY OF WING SECTIONS 176 avoid high induced drags. These tendencies result in "rings of high aspect ratio that require large spar depths for structural efficiency. The large spar depths require the use of thick root sections. The comparatively high lift coefficients corresponding to the cruise condition for such designs leads to the use of large cambers to obtain low profile drags. Such designs are encouraged by the drag characteristics of modem smooth wing sections ~ .......... .yr r=­ / 4 ~ o • OOO} (l~ cUBit) ",,\~ :~ I 644 v2,o 8 A1rf'oU (a) ~ r-, ,,~ lV ....s ~ v ~~ I I r-, MeA 12 16 perceDt of cho1"4 tblokD.... to~ I (5 cU81t) 20 ao4 tlve-4161\ serle•• 'f4 FIG. 91.

Unfortunately airplane 'lings are not usually constructed with smooth surfaces, and, in any case, the surfaces cannot be relied upon to stay smooth under all service conditions. The effect of roughening the leading edges of thick wing sections is to cause large increases of the drag coefficient at high lift coefficients. The resulting drag coefficient may be excessive at cruising lift coefficients for heavily loaded high-altitude airplanes. Wing sections that have suitable characteristics when smooth but have exces­ sive drag coefficients when rough at lift coefficients corresponding to cruis­ ing or climbing conditions are called "uneonservative." -The decision as to whether a given lying section is conservative will depend upon the power and wing loadings of the airplane. The decision may be affected by expected service and operating conditions.

The pitching-moment coefficients for sections having mean lines of the type a < 1.0 are equal to or slightly more negative than the theoretical values as shO\VD in Fig. 93. Consequently, changing the type of mean line from a = 1.0 to a < 1.0 to reduce the magnitude of the pitching-moment coefficient is relatively ineffective un­ less the value of a is reduced to a small value. The variation of chordwise position of the aerodynamic center at a Reynolds number of 6 million for a large number of NACA wing sections is presented in Fig. 94. From the data presented in Appendix IV, there appears to be no systematic variation of ehordwise position of the aero­ dynamic center with Reynolds number between 3 and 9 million. For the N ACA 24-, 44-, and 23o-series wing sections with thickness ratios ranging from 12 to 24 per cent, the chordwise position of the aerodynamic center is ahead of the quarter-chord point and moves forward with increases of thickness ratio. The data for the NACA 00- and 14-series sections show that the aerodynamic center is at the quarter-chord point. The aero­ dynamic center is aft of the quarter-chord point for the NACA 6-series wing sections and moves rearward with increase of thickness ratio. There ap­ pears to be little systematic variation of the chordwise position of the aero­ dynamic center with camber or position of minimum pressure for these sections. For the thick cambered sections, the chordwise position of the aerodynamic center appears to move forward as the design position of minimum pressure moves back. For wing sections with arbitrary modifica­ tions of shape near the trailing edge, the trailing-edge angle appears to be an important parameter affecting the chord,vise position of the aero­ dynamic center. For such sections, the aerodynamic center moves forward as the trailing-edge angle is increased."

The auxiliary devices discussed in this chapter are essentially movable elements that per­ mit the pilot to change the geometry and aerodynamic characteristics of the wing sections to control the motion of the airplane or to improve the per­ formance in some desired -manner. The desire to imp ove performance by increasing the wing loading while maintaining acceptable landing and take-off speeds led to the developmen t of retrae able devices to improve the maximum lift coefficients of wings without changing the characteristics for the cruising and high-speed flight conditions. Some typical high-lift de­ vices are illustrated in Fig. 95. The aerodynamic characteristics of some typical high-lift devices are presented and discussed in the following sec­ tions.

For most commonly used wing sections, this condition is satisfied reasonably well for flap deflections of not over 10 to 15 degrees. The theory permits calculation of the angle of zero lift, the pitching-moment coefficient, and the ehordwise load dis­ tribution with reasonable accuracy. The flap loads and hinge moments may also be obtained, but the accuracy of these quantities is relatively poor because the effects of viscosity are particularly pronounced over the aft portion of the section.

Theoretical variation of flap lift coefficient with section lift coefficient and 1lap deflection. The pressure distribution over a lying section with a deflected plain flap may be calculated by the "ring-section theory of Chap. 3, but such calcula­ tions for a number of flap deflections would be unduly laborious. Some knowledge of the ehordwise load distribution is given by the theory of thin lying sections. The change of load distribution caused by flap deflection can be resolved into t\VO components, one of which is simply the additional load distribution associated with angle of attack. The other component is the difference bet,veen the load distribution on the original and deflected mean lines at their respective ideal angles of attack, These load distribu­ THEORY OF WING SECTIONS 194 tions may be calculated by the theory of thin wing sections (Chap. 4) as explained by Allen,' but the results are not very accurate. For example, the simple theory predicts infinite load concentrations at the leading edge and hinge location. The infinite load concentration at the leading edge may be avoided by use of the additional types of load distribution associ­ ated with angle of attack as obtained from thick-wing-section theory and presented in Appendix I.

Once the load distribution is obtained, the pressure distribution may be calculated by the method of Sec.. 4.5. Some typical pressure distributions for sections with plain flapsfl are presented in Fig. 99. The lift, drag, and moment characteristics of a typical NACA 6-series wing section with a O.2Oc plain ft ap3 are presented in Fig. 100 for several flap deflections up to 65 degrees. These and other data" show that the angle of maximum lift coefficient with the flap deflected is generally some­ what less than for the plain wing section. Curves of the maximum lift coefficient plotted against flap deflection for two sections" are presented in Fig. 101. Plain flaps of 0.2Oc appear to be capable of producing incre­ ments of the section maximum lift coefficient ranging up to about 1.0 and are more effective when applied to sections with small amounts of camber. Addit~onal data on plain flaps are presented byJacobs," Abbott," and Wenzmger. l 48, 1., 116 HIGH-LIFT DEVICES :~:: ~ e •• .... ... .. i!:: I~:: :i:· i~" . . .•. :::: :::i ;.. *:=! :i:: ;.!:.... :E: :r-: !::: .•. 195 e •••••• ;!~: eo. :e:: :::: ;~!: ~~g .

Split Flaps. The split flap is one of the simplest of the high-lift devices. The usual split flap is formed by deflecting the aft portion of the lower surface about a hinge point on the surface at the forward edge of the deflected portion (see Fig. 95). One variation of the simple split flap has the hinge point located forward of the deflected portion of the surface in THEORY OF WING SECTIONS 198 such a manner as to leave a gap between the deflected flap and the wing surface. In another variation the leading edge of the flap is moved aft as the flap is deflected, either with or without a gap between the flap and the wing surface. Split flaps derive their effectiveness from the large increase of camber produced and, in the case of some of the variations, from the effective increase of wing area. , I I II , J I I l J ~ I I IPlDfnf_~ I" I~~ I I ,,~~~ .04 ~ ~ ~ ~~ ~ .-.~ ~ 'I 1/ r-, ~ ... ~ I J ~ 'Y~ t> U ~ ~ ~ StJditJn /lfl Df)tI/Iit:itlnI,e" FIG. 102.

Similar data for a flap deflection of 60 degrees are presented for most of the wing sections of Appendix IV. The lift-curve slope with split flaps is higher and the angle of maximum. lift is somewhat lower than for the plain section. There appears to be a tendency for the lift-curve slope for large flap deflections to be less than that for moderate deflections.v 154 Inspection of Figs. 103 and 104 shows that the split flap is more effective in increasing the maximum lift coefficient when applied to the thick than when applied to the thin "ring sections. Figure 58 shows that the maximum lift coefficients of NACA 6-series wing sections with O.20c split flaps de­ flected 60 degrees increase with thickness ratio up to ratios of at least 18 per cent.

The data of Wenzinger and Rogallo show that the chordwise position of the forward edge of the flap has only a small effect on the flap loads. The effect of a gap between the wing surface and a split flap with a nominal chord of 0.2Oc hinged at O.SOc from the leading edge of the sec­ tionllO is shown in Fig. 109. The data show that the lCBJ of maximum lift coefficient associated with the gap is considerably greater than that caused by removing the same area from the trailing edge of the flap. Figure 110 summarizes the effect 1," on maximum lift coefficient of moving a O.2Oc split flap toward the trailing edge from its normal position. These data show that the percentage increment of maximum lift coefficient obtained by moving the split flap to the rear is about the same as the percentage increase of wing area measured as projected onto the original HIGH-LIFT DEVICE8 203 chord line. Similar results have been obtained!" for O.3Oc and O.4Oc split flaps. 8.6. Slotted Flaps. G. Description oj Blotted Flaps.

The slots duct high-energy air from the lower surface to the upper surface and direct this air in such a manner as to delay separation of the flow over the flap by providing bdundary-layer control. The numerous types of slotted flap are classified by their -geometry. Several types are shown in Fig. 111. The primary classification is the number of slots. The single-slotted flap is the simplest and most generally THEORY OF WING SECTIONS 204 used type. Double-slotted flaps have been used to some extent, and multiple-slotted or venetian-blind flaps have been investigated.

The movement of the flap may vary from a simple rotation about a fixed point to a combined rotation and translation that moves the leading edge of the flap to the vicinity of the normal trailing-edge position. Rearward movement of the flap requires an extension of the upper surface over some or all of the flap in the retracted position. This extension of the upper surface serves to direct the flow of air through the slot in the proper diree­ HIGH-LIFT DEVICES 205 tion and is called the "lip." The external-airfoil Hap (Fig. Ill) may be considered as a special case of the single-slotted flap with the distinguishing feature that it does not retract within the section. The flow about a wing section with a deflected slotted flap is very complicated, and no adequate theory has been developed to predict the aerodynamic characteristics. Consequently the information required for (0 ) ,...---------c=IO.00"---------"'=---~ (b) (e) Y.IOC 60° 0.20';( \:~ FIG. 109.

Although many experi­ mental data have been accumulated, the large number of configurations possible and the sensitivity of the chacteristies to small changes in the slot configuration make the design problem a difficult one. b. Single-sloUed Flaps. One important parameter in the design of single­ slotted flaps is the chordwise position of the lip. Although completely comparable data are not available for configurations with varied positions of the lip, the maximum lift coefficients appear to increase as the lip position approaches the trailing edge for lying sections of moderate thick­ ness. This effect19• 153 is shown in Fig. 112, where increments of maximum lift coefficient are presented for the NAC£.\. 23012 section with single­ slotted flaps having lips located at O.82ic, O.9OOc, and 1.000c. The con­ THEORY OF WING SECTIONS figuration with the lip located at 0.827c is not exactly comparable with the others because the chord of this flap is 0.2566c as compared with 0.3Ocfor the others. It is apparent, nevertheless, that the increment of the max­ imum lift coefficient is considerably higher for the configuration having the lip at the normal trailing-edge position than for those with a more forward lip location.

Envelope polars for these flaps are presented- in Fig. 113. When the lip is located at or near the normal trailing-edge position, the thickness of the flap is necessarily less than that for a more forward location of the lip20 (Fig. 114a). In the case of thin wing sections, especially of the NACA 6-series type, the flap thickness may become too small with a rearward location of the lip to permit favorable slot configurations. Under such conditions, the favorable effect on the maximum lift coefficient of moving the lip toward the normal trailing-edge position may not be realized.

The data presented .for the O.. 25(j(ic and O.4Oc flaps are reasonably comparable in that the shapes of the slots are generally similar. Figure 115 shows that larger increments of maximum lift coeffi­ cient are obtained with the larger chord flap, but the increased effectiveness is small compared with the increase of flap chord, The slightly higher maximum lift coefficients obtainable with large chord flaps do not appear to justify the structural difficulties encountered with such flaps, and flap chords in excess of O.25c to 0.3Oc are seldom used.

A short extension of the lip as in configuration I-b, which makes the slot definitely convergent and directs the air downward toward the flap surface, is effective in increasing the maximum lift coefficient. It may be concluded from these and other data that the slot should be definitely convergent in the vicinity of the lip and shaped to direct the air downward toward the flap. The effects of changing the radius of curvature at the entry to the slot from the lower surface arc shown by configurations I-b and l-c of Fig. 117 for a flap having a comparatively small rearward displacement when deflected. Decreasing the radius of curvature from about 0.0& to O.04c did not produce a significant difference in the maximum HIGH-LIFT DEV"ICES 213 lift coefficient. Other data indicate that this radius of curvature is of little importance when the flap is displaced rearward enough to produce 8. large area for the entry of air into the slot. It is difficult to draw general conclusions about the proper shape of a slotted flap. Figure 117 shows that the highest maximum lift coefficients were obtained with flap 2, which is shaped more like a good wing section than flaps 1 or 3. The difference between the maximum lift coefficients produced by flaps 1 and 2 is small and may be caused by the difference in slot shape and lip extension rather than by the difference in flap shape.

Typical cont.ourst61 of the maximum lift obtainable with various flap positions at one flap deflection are shown in Fig, 118. In' general, the optimum flap position for good flaps at large deflections appears to he that which produces a slot opening of the order of O.. Olc or slightly more and which locates the foremost point of the flap about O.Olc forward of the lip. The maximum lift coefficient, however, is frequently sensitive to the flap position, and the optimum position is best determined by test.

External-airjoil Flaps.

Double-slotted /laps. Double-slotted flaps3 (Fig. 123) produce sub­ stantial increments of maximum lift coefficient over that obtainable with single-slotted flaps. The fore flap or vane of the double-slotted flap assists in turning the air downward over the main flap, thus delaying the stall of the flap to higher deftections. It has frequently been found possible to develop flap-vane combinations that can be retracted into the wing section without relative motion between the vane and the flap. Such an arrange­ ment is desirable because the linkage system is much less complicated than when relative motion is required between the flap and vane. 218 THEORY OF WING SECTIONS Investigations by Harris,40 Purser," and Fischel' ! of approximately O.3Oc and 0.4Oc double-s1otted flaps on the NACA 23021 and 23012 wing sections indicated maximum lift coefficients of the order of 3.3 and 3.5 for the two sizes of flap. Typical results for the NACA 23012 section are shown in Figs. 124 and 125. The fore flap and the main flap did not deflect together as a unit for these configurations. Aerodynamic characteristics' are pre­ sented in Fig. 126 for the NACA 65,-118 section with the O.309c double­ slotted flap shown in Fig. 123. For this configuration, the vane and flap .....-------lOCLf----------..I ...----.78/----------1... moved together as a unit up to deflections of 45 degrees. At higher angles, the flap rotated about a pivot and the vane remained fixed. The variation of maximum lift obtained for thin NACA 64-series seetions" with approximately 0.3Oc double-slotted flaps is shown in Fig. 127. The type of fiap used for these tests is illustrated in Fig. 128. The :8ap and vane deflected as a unit. These data. (Fig. 127) show that the maximum lift coefficient decreases rapidly 88 the thickness ratio of the wing section is decreased to values below 10 or 12 per cent. The maximum lift coefficient obtained for the NACA 1410 wing section21 is also plotted to indicate the effect of type of section. The maximum lift coefficient ob­ tained for the NACA 65r118 wing section with a flap deflection of 45 de­ grees (Fig. 126) is also plotted to indicate the effect of larger thickness ratios. The NACA 65,-118 data are not exactly comparable, but the indicated gradual rise of the maximum lift coefficient as the thickness rano is increased to 18 per cent is believed to be representative.

These data, which were obtained on a K.~CA 23012 lying section, indicate an increment of about 0.5 for the maximum lift coefficient and about 8 degrees for the angle of attack for maximum lift. The increment of maximum lift decreased to about one-half of its value for the unflapped section when either a split or slotted flap was deflected to optimum deflections despite readjustment of the slat to optimum positions with flap- deflected. Weick and Platt!· obtained considerably larger increments of maximum lift coefficient with a special retractable slat (Fig. 133) having a shape providing a rounded entrance into the slot. The increments of maximum lift coefficient with HIGH-LIFT DEVICES 227 this configuration were 0.81 for the unflapped section and 0.45 with a deflected slotted flap. b. Slots. Slots to permit the passage of high-energy air from the lower surface to control the boundary layer on the upper surface are common features of many high-lift devices. The most common application is the slotted flap. When the slot is located near the leading edge, the con­ figuration differs only in detail from the leading-edge slat. Additional slots may be introduced at various chordwise stations. Weick and Bhortal'" made a systematic study of slots on a Clark Y airfoil. The results of this investigation are summarized in Fig. 134. For the unflapped section, the most effective position for a single slot is near the leading edge, and the effectiveness decreases as the slot is moved aft. Multiple slots are relatively ineffective on the plain airfoil unless they include a slot near the FIG. 133. Special retractable slat on Clark Y wing section. leading edge, in which case a total of three slots, all located well forward, is optimum. For the flapped section, the slot located near the leading edge was effective. A single or double slot at the flap changed the type of flap from plain to slotted with- a corresponding increase of the maximum lift coefficient. Load data for the leading-edge slot are given by Harris and Lowry." These data show resultant-force coefficients as large as about 7.5 for that portion of the wing section ahead of a slot near the leading edge. If slots are considered as a fixed high-lift device, the profile drag in the high-speed. flight attitude is an important characteristic. Figure 134 shows that any of the slots investigated cause large increments in the minimum profile drag. This increment increases with the number of slots and de­ creases with rearward movement of the slots. Attempts have been made to maintain low drags with slots open by locating the slots so that there would be no flow through them in the high-speed. condition. lOS Such con­ figurations have failed to improve the ratio of maximum lift to minimum drag over that for the plain wing section. c. Leading-edge Flap8. A leading-edge flap may be formed by bending down the forward portion of the wing section in a manner similar to that in which the trailing edge is deflected in the case of plain flaps. Other types of leading-edge flap are formed by extending a surface downward and forward from the vicinity of the leading edge. As shown in Fig. 135, such flaps may extend smoothly from the upper surface near the leading edge, may be hinged at the center of the leading-edge radius, or may be hinged on the lower surface somewhat aft of the leading edge.

Krueger,.,60 Lemme,l3· M, 65 and Koster" showed increments of the maximum lift coefficient of 88 much as 0.7. These increments were, how­ ever, applied to maximum lift coefficients for the plain wings of the order of 0.72. These low maximum lift coefficients resulted from the small leading-edge radii of the wing sections usually used for these investigations and the very low Reynolds numbers of the tests. These investigations in­ dicated that the effectiveness of leading-edge Haps increased with decreasing leading-edge radius. Typical rcsultsH are shown in Fig. 136. The inere­ HIGH-LIFT DEVICES 231 moot of maximum lift coefficient, deLmasJ is plotted against the leading­ edge-radius parameter {r/c)/{t/c)2 where r is the leading-edge radius. The value of this parameter for NACA four- and five-digit wing sections is 1.1. FullmerU investigated t\VO types of leading-edge flap on the NACA 641-012 section at a Reynolds number of 6 million.

The idea of removing the low-energy air of the boundary layer, or of adding kinetic energy to the boundary layer, as a means for increasing the maximum lift has been obvious since the basic mechanism for separation was first understood." The kinetic energy of the layers of air close to the surface may hi increased by removing low­ energy air through suction slots or a porous surface. Another common method is to blow high-energy air through backward-directed slots. The 232 THEORY OF lYING SECTIONS air handled through either the suction or blowing slots may be carried through the interior of the wing and the necessary energy supplied by a blower. Alternately, the pressure difference required may be obtained from the variation of pressure about the wing section itself. This method I!!«JJ:... l.J:Mer 5lIfoce~.

R, 6.0 X U)6. has been used successfully only in the case of blowing slots on the upper surface using air taken from the lower surface. Examples of such arrange­ ments are the previously discussed slotted flaps, slots, and leading-edge slats. It is obvious that, if boundary-layer control is applied at sufficiently close intervals along the upper surface of a wing section, separation can be avoided up to very high values of the lift coefficient. The increments of maximum lift coefficient are obtained as an extension of the lift curve to HIGH-LIFT DEVICES 233 higher angles of attack as contrasted with the displacement of the lift curve resulting from deflection of trailing-edge flaps. The problem con­ fronting the designer is to apply sufficient boundary-layer control to obtain the desired values of the maximum lift coefficient without increasing the weight and complexity of the airplane to such an extent as to nullify the gains in performance expected from the higher lift coefficients. These considerations of weight and complexity have prevented extensive use of 6.0 ~ 5.0 / ~4.0 ......" i Theory.. . " .~ .~ ~ ) § .10 .~ ~ (j) f /r / / v l( /' ~. )C / ~/ ~.

Successful application of boundary-layer control must delay both tur­ bulent separation over the aft portion of the wing and permanent laminar separation over the forward portion (see Sec. 5.3). The prevention of permanent laminar separation for thin or even moderately thick sections by means of suction slots is a difficult problem involving critically located slots in a region of greatly reduced pressure that requires high-pressure blowers. Nearly all the early investigations avoided this problem by using very thick sections with large leading-edge radii. 102. 101, 104 Using such sec­ tions, Schrenk103 obtained lift coefficients of over 5.0 using a single suction slot (Fig. 138) with a volume-flow coefficient Co of 0.038.

Quinn93 has concluded that the maximum effectiveness of suction slots is nearly reached when the quantity of air removed is equal to that which would pass through the displacement thickness of the boundary layer at the slot location with the local velocity outside the boundary layer.

This combination of high-lift devices gave a maximum lift coefficient of nearly 4.0 for this thin section95 (Fig. 141). 8.8. The Chcrdwise Load Distribution over Flapped W'mg SectiODS. Allen' obtained empirical load distributions that permit calculation of reasonable approximations to the load distributions of "ring sections with deflected plain or split flaps. These load distributions are analogous to those associated with changes of camber in that the ratio Pb&/c~ is inde­ pendent of the angle of attack where Pili is the incremental basic load distribution associated with flap deflection and en., is the basic normal­ force coefficient associated 'lith flap deflection. The total load distribu­ tion is the sum of the incremental basic distribution P"" the incremental additional load distribution Po" and the load distributionof the unflapped section at the same angle of attack. The incremental additional load HIGH-LIFT DEVICE8 237 distribution P a & is taken to be the same as the additional load distribution associated with angle of attack. That is, for a normal additional force coefficient of unity, P = 4 dV a -! GI. V V where the values of dVa/V and vIV are tabulated in Appendix I for various wing sections. Allen also found empirically that the values of P",/~ at any point (x/c)/(I - E) (points ahead of the flap hinge) and [I - (x/c»)/E (points aft of the hinge) were independent of the flap-chord ratio E for any given angular deflection of the flap. Values of P"./c.., are given in Table 6 for both plain and split flaps. The incremental load distribution associated with flap deflection is thus defined in terms of two known types of distribu­ tions. The remaining problem is to determine the magnitudes of these two types of distributions associated with a given flap deflection. The magnitudes of the load distributions are determined from force test data obtained at the desired angle of attack with the flap neutral and deflected. The additional load distribution contributes no moment about the quarter-chord point. The incremental basic distribution is therefore selected to produce the measured increment of moment coefficient between the flap-neutral and flap-deflected conditions. The remainder of the differ­ ence between the normal-force coefficients with the flap neutral and de­ flected is equal to the incremental additional load distribution. The normal-force distribution is assumed to act as shown in Fig. 142. From force tests of the wing section with flap neutral, C1ft1 (quarter-chord pitching-moment coefficient) and ella (normal-force coefficient) correspond­ ing to the normal-force distribution shown in Fig. 142a are obtained. From force tests of the wing section at the same angle of attack with the flap deflected, ems and CftS corresponding to the normal-force distribution shown in Fig. 142b are obtained. Let aem = Cm: - em l , } = en: - C ra., deft (8.1) where em.' and Cfta' are the pitching-moment and normal-force coefficients corresponding to the normal-force distribution for the section with flap neutral when plotted normal to the chord of the section with flap deflected as shown in Fig. 142c. Then ~Cm and .1c,. are the pitching-moment and normal-force coefficients of the incremental normal-force distribution when the incremental distribution is plotted normal to the chord of the section with the flap deflected as ShO"l1 in Fig. 142d. In many cases, the approximation (8.2) THEORY OF WING SBCTIONS 238 is sufficiently exact except when the flap-chord ratio E and the flap deflec­ tion 8 are simultaneously large or when the shape of the mean line is such that the load is large near the trailing edge. In such cases, values of Crat' and Cat' may be obtained graphically from the theoretical load distribution for the unflapped section adjusted to agree with the experimental data.

The tabulated charac­ teristics for plain flap deflections up to 15 degrees are for unstalled condi­ tions, whereas those for larger flap deflections represent progressively increased separation.

Introduction. The wing-section theory and experimental data presented in the preceding chapters are applicable to conditions where the variation of pressure lR small compared with the absolute pressure. This 247 248 THEORY OF WING SECTIONS condition is well satisfied when the speed is low compared with the speed of sound. At a flight speed of 100 knots at sea level, the impact pressure is only about 34 pounds per square foot as compared with an ambient static pressure of 2,116 pounds per square foot. At 300 knots, the impact pressure increases to approximately 321 pounds per square foot; and, at 600 knots, the impact pressure is 1,494 pounds per square foot. At the higher speeds, the pressure and corresponding 'volume changes are obviously not neg­ ligible. It is to be expected, therefore, that wing-section characteristics at high speeds will not agree with those predicted by incompressible Bow theory or with experimental data obtained at low speeds. Examination of the complete equations of motion89 shows that the parameter determining the effect of speed is the ratio of the speed to the speed of sound. This ratio is called the "Mach number." The physical significance of the speed of sound becomes evident in considering the difference between subsonic and sup­ ersonic flows, The speed of sound is the speed at which pressure im­ pulses are transmitted through the FlO. 143. Significance of Mach angle. air. At SIOlV flight speeds, the pres­ sure impulses caused by motion ~t the wing are transmitted at relatively high speed in all directions and cause the air approaching the wing to change its pressure and velocity gradually. Slow speed flows are accord­ ingly free of discontinuities of pressure and velocity. At supersonic speeds, no pressure impulses can be transmitted ahead of the wing, and the pres­ sure snd velocity of the air remain unaltered until it reaches the immedi­ ate vicinity of the wing. Supersonic ft.ow is thus characterized by discontinuities of pressure and velocity. As shown in Fig. 143, the pressure impulses are propagated in all directions at the speed of sound a while the 'ring moves through the air at the velocity V. The envelope of the pressure impulses is a straight line (for small impulses) which makes a slope sin-1a/V or sin-t M with the direction of motion, where M is the Mach number. This line is called the" Mach line." The air ahead of the Mach line is unaffected by the approaching wing. The present discussion of the characteristics of wing sections in com­ pressible flow is limited to subsonic speeds. The pressure-velocity relations for a stream. tube will be developed, and a brief summary will be presented of compressible flow theory as applied to wing sections. The theory of wing sections in subsonic flow generally consists of the determination of EFFECTS OF COMPRESSIBILITY AT SUBSONIC SPEEDS 249 the first-order compressibility effects on the incompressible flow solutions previously developed. The theory is generally limited to speeds at which the velocity of sound is not exceeded in the field of flow. A brief discussion of experimental data will, however, include data in the lower transonic region where the speed of sound is exceeded locally. 9.3. Steady Flow through a Stream Tube. a. Adiabatic Law. The relation among pressure, density, and temperature for a perfect gas is p = pRT where (in consistent units) p = pressure p = density, moles per unit volume T ~ absolute temperature R = universal gas constant = Cp - c. Cp = specific heat per mole at constant pressure Ct, = specific heat per mole at constant volume This equation may be written (9.1) or PIl't r;= 112"2 T2 where the subscripts 1 and 2 refer to any two conditions of/the gas. When the temperature is constant (isothermal changes), the relation between the pressure and the density is obviously P1 PI -=­ 'P2 P2 Except for this special case, pressure and volume changes are accompanied by temperature changes. In the high-speed ftO\VS of primary interest, these changes occur so quickly that individual elements of the gas generally do not lose or gain any appreciable heat. Changes in state of the gas are thus assumed to be adiabatic. In this case, (9.2) where v = ratio of specific heats, cp/cv From Eqs, (9.1) and (9.2), the corresponding temperature relation is E! = (Tl)"Y/{Y-l) (9.3) T2 b. Velocity of Sound. Expressions for the velocity of sound may be derived from consideration of the equations of motion and of continuity. The equation of continuity for a compressible fluid may be developed in a manner parallel to that for Eq. (2.1) and is P2 THEORY OF WING SECTIONS 250 a(pu) ax + iJ(pv) + a(pw) == _ ap ay az at (9.4) For motion in one dimension, this equation reduces to iJ(pu) ap ax== - at or ap au iJp -+p-+uat ax ax ==0 dividing 1;ly p lap + au+~ap = 0 pat (9.5) pax a2: In the concept of a velocity of sound, the disturbances are considered to be small 80 that the changes in density are small compared with the density and the corresponding velocities are small.

Very strong shock waves and blasts should not be expected to propagate at speeds corresponding to the local velocity of sound. c. Bernoulli's Eqootion for Comprem.1Jle Flow. In deriving Bernoulli's equation for incompressible flow [Eq.

The thermodynamic reasoning indicates that the quantity E in Eq. (9.13) is a constant along any stream tube for adiabatic changes whether reversible or not. For example, E is constant throughout & stream tube containing a normal shock. For reversible changes, Eqs. (9.2) and (9.13) together with a knowledge of the initial conditions permit the calculation of the variation of pressure and density with velocity. 252 THEORY OF WING SECTIONS d. Cro8s-sectional Areas and PreBSUTe8 in a Stream Tube. Along a stream tube, the equation of continuity for steady flow is pSV = constant where S = cross-sectional area of tube It is interesting to contrast the manner in which the cross-sectional area varies with velocity for compressible and incompressible flow, For the latter case, the area is seen to vary inversely with the velocity. The determination of the variation of area with velocity for the compressible case requires more extensive analysis. Differentiating the equation of con­ tinuity, and dividing by pSV, we obtain ! dB +! dp +.!.. 8dV pdV V =0 (9.14) Differentiating Bernoulli's equation with respect -to the velocity, V or + _'Y_ (.! dp _ 1!.) dp = 0 'Y - 1 p dp v + _1_ (1. a 2 _ 'Y - 1 p or p'- dV 2 a ) dp = 0 p dV a2 dp V+ pdV =0 (9.15) From Eq.

(9.15), we obtain dB dV =_ §.(lV2) = V a2 ~(1- W) V (9.16) This relation shows that the stream. tube contracts as the velocity increases for Mach numbers less than unity. The area of the stream tube is a minimum for a Mach number of unity and increases with Mach number for supersonic flow. From consideration of Eqs, (9.2), (9.3), and (9.11), it may be seen that the pressures, densities, temperatures, and velocities of sound are con­ nected by the equations (9.17) where the subscript m may denote the condition at any point but, in the follo"ring development, the subscript will denote the condition at the minimum cross-sectional area of the stream tube where the local Mach number equals unity. EFFECTS OF COMPRESSIBILITY AT SUBSONIC SPEEDS 253 In order to obtain an expression for the cross-sectional area of the stream tube in terms of the local Mach number M, it is convenient to express Bernoulli's equation (9.13) as ! 2 l\I2 + _1_ 'Y - 1 = ~+ 2 1 am 2( 'Y - 1) a2 (9.18) where a and am represent, respectively, the velocities of sound at any point along the stream tube and at the point of minimum cross-sectional area.

In deriving the relations for the cross­ sectional areas, pressures, and temperatures existing in a stream tube, the entire process was considered to be adiabatic and reversible. Experience has shown that this condition is satisfied whenever the velocity is increasing in the direction of flow. However, when an attempt is made to decelerate supersonic flows, discontinuities in velocity, pressure, and temperature generally occur. These discontinuities occur in a very short distance along the direction of motion and are termed U shock waves." The velocity and total pressure of the air decrease and the temperature and static pressure increase in going through the shock. The process, although adiabatic, is irreversible and characterized by an increase of entropy. The shock is stationary for a tube of fixed configuration with constant pressures at the inlet and exit. Since the velocity on the upstream face is supersonic, the shock can hardly be considered to propagate at the velocity of sound. Similar discontinuities occur forward of the nose of a blunt body traveling at supersonic speeds. In the case of a simple tube or of the shock im­ EFFECTS OF COMPRES8IBILITY AT SUBSONIC SPEEDS 255 mediately forward of the nose of a blunt body, the plane of the shock is normal to the direction of flow. This type of shock is a fundamental one and is termed a "normal shock," as distinguished from the oblique shocks shown in Fig. 143. Relations for determining the conditions across a normal shock wave from the conditions on one side are derived'" from considerations of mass, momentum, and energy. If the subscripts 1 and 2 denote, respectively, the conditions on opposite sides of the shock and if m is the mass flow per unit area and p is the static pressure, the condition for continuity for a shock stationary with respect to the observer is m The equation of conservation of momentum is PIUl = P2~ (9.24) = P2 - PI = m(ul - U2) (9.25) The equation for conservation of energy is PIUl - PtU2 _!2 m (u~! - Ut!) =~ "Y- 1 (l!: _PI) [.J2 PI (9.26) The solution" for these conditions is P2 P; = (P2/PI) (1' + 1) / (1' - 1) + 1 (p,./Pl) + (1' + 1)/ ()' - 1) (9.27) This equation relates the density and pressure ratios across the shock when This equation corresponds to a change in entropy except in the case where PI equals P2. It can be shown" that P2 must be greater than PI for the change in entropy to be positive. It would be convenient to relate the pressure and density rat.ios across the normal shock to the upstream Mach number. Such an expression may be obtained by expressing Eqs.. (9.24) and (9.25) in terms of the local Mach number and combining to give PI and PI are the upstream conditions. P2 - 1 = PI Substituting the value of 1\'112 = ,.

Consideration of the effects of compressibility on the flow over wing sections may be conveniently divided into two parts" The first part deals with the characteristics in the range of subcritieal Mach numbers. 111C second part deals with the characteristics at supercritical Maeh numbers.

The larger area of the pressure diagram at the higher Mach number corre­ sponds to an increased lift coefficient at the same angle of attack. The resulting change of lift-curve slope has been shown (Fig. 146) to agree fairly well with the Glauert-Prandtl rule. The applicability of these theoretical relations is limited to cases where the effects of separation are not marked. If separation is present, the increased pressure gradients associated with higher Mach numbers tend to increase the separation and thus change the whole field of flow, Moreover, the absence of appreciable separation at low speeds is not necessarily a sufficient criterion, because the increased pressure gradients at the higher Mach numbers may cause separation in marginal cases. The theoretical relations may therefore be applied with confidence only to wing sections of normal shape at low lift coefficients. b. Flmo at Supercritical Mach Numbers. The flow at supercritical Mach numbers is partly subsonic and partly supersonic and is characterized by the presence of shocks. No theory dealing with these mixed subsonic and supersonic flows has been developed to the extent of being useful in the prediction of wing characteristics. The almost complete lack of theoret­ ical treatment requires reliance on experimental data at supercriticaI Mach numbers. For the typical case of a wing section operating at a small positive lift coefficient, the velocity of sound is reached first on the upper surface, as is shown in Fig. 150 by the pressure coefficient increasing negatively beyond the critical value CPc_ Figure 150c shows no drastic change in the pressure distribution when the local velocity' of sound is exceeded by a small amount. Many experimental data indicate that drastic changes in the forces on wing sections do not occur until the critical Mach number is exceeded by a small but appreciable margin. There is some doubt as to whether a shock necessarily occurs when the velocity of sound is locally exceeded by a small margin. DC In any case, the losses associated with a shock from very low supersonic velocities are very small, as shown b)" Fig. 145. Such small losses would not be expected to produce drastic changes in the field of flow. A shock occurs when the critical Mach number is exceeded appreciably, as shown by Fig. 150d to g. The shocks act, at least qualitatively, like a normal shock to reduce the velocity to subsonic values. The resulting rather sudden changes in the pressure distribution are shown dotted in Fig. 150. Schlieren pictures of the shocks corresponding to the diagrams of Figs. 150! and g are shown-" in Fig. 151. The positions of the shocks as shown by the photographs correspond closely with the dotted regions of the pressure diagrams.

The character of the flow with shock is greatly affected by the inter­ action of the shock and the boundary layer. It is apparent that the shock cannot extend to the surface through the region of Iow velocity in the EFFECTS OF COMPRESSIBILITY AT SUBSONIC SPEEDS 265 boundary layer. If the plane of the shock is perpendicular to the flow, the increase of static pressure through the shock will correspond to that shown in Fig. 145. The relatively high pressure downstream of the shock will tend to propagate upstream through the boundary layer. The pres­ M:O.40 M=O.60 M=O.550 M:O.650 FlO. 152. Schlieren photographs of flow.

Angle of attack. 3 degrees. sure distribution measured at the surface cannot , therefore, be expected to show a discontinuity. Figure 150 shows that the sharp pressure rise is, in fact, shown as a steep gradient at the surface. Such propagation of the pressure along the boundary layer necessarily leads to pressure gradients across the boundary layer in the vicinity of the shock. This situation is quite different from the usual boundary-layer conditions at low l\Iach numbers. The large adverse pressure gradients associated with the shock always produce a large increase of boundary-layer thickness and frequently cause 266 THEORY OF WING SECTIONS separation, as shown U 4 in Figs. 152 and 153. This separation is an im­ portant or even predominant factor in causing the large force changes occurring at supercritical speeds. The relative importance of the shock losses and the effects of separation on the drag of a typical wing section M=O.750 M:O.70 M:O.821 M=O.80 FIG. 152. (Concluded) are shown-" by Fig. 154. This figure shows the total pressure loss across the wake of the section. These losses are intimately associated with the drag, and, to the first order, the drag coefficient is proportional to the area under the curve. Intense shock has not occurred at the lower Mach num­ ber, and the diagram has the typical shape obtained at lo,v speeds. Intense shoek has occurred at the higher Mach number, and the drag coefficient has obviously increased. This increase may be considered to be of t\VO parts. The very large losses of pressure in the center of the diagram are similar in shape to the lower speed diagram and are attributed to the usual type of loss associated with skin friction and sep RXat,i on. The smaller 267 EFFECTS OF COMPRE88IBILITY AT 8UBSONIC SPEEDS pressure losses extending far out into the stream are attributed to the losses across the shock. It is apparent that the drag rise associated with the usual type of loss is as important as that directly associated with the losses across the shocks. The pressure rise measured'P on the surface of the wing section in the vicinity of the shock is smaller than that corresponding to a normal shock with the losses of total pressure indicated by the wake surveys. The pressure rise correspond­ ing to a normal shock may also be obtained by means of Fig. 145 from the local Mach num­ ber ahead of the shock as indicated by pres­ sure measurements on the surface. In this case, also, the computed pressure rise is greater than that shown by the surface pressures. The com­ plete explanation of this discrepancy is not known, but two factors could tend to reduce l\>1 0.691 the pressure rise on the surface below that FIG. 153.

Although these density gradients may be partly associated with temperature gradients, the sharp­ ness and intensity of these lines are thought to indicate the presence of appreciable pressure gradients. The second factor is the possible reaction of the boundary layer on the shock. The thickening or separation of the boundary' layer tends to pro­ duce oblique shocks, Such shocks would produce some pressure rise ahead THEORY OF WING SECTIONS 268 of the normal shock and would accordingly reduce the intensity of the normal shock, especially close to the surface. The extent to which the normal shock is locally softened in this manner is uncertain, but Figs. 152 and 153 suggest that this mechanism may be of considerable importance. Investigations made by the NACA, by Liepman,· and by Ackeret4 and his associates emphasize the complexity of the interaction of the shock and the boundary layer. These investigations indicate important differences between the shock phenomena for laminar and for turbulent boundary layers. Although exceptions have been noted, laminar boundary layers .4 CD em -·~I .2 .3 .4 .5.6 .8 Mach numbtJr,M FIG. 155.. Force and moment coefficient variation with Mach number.

The understanding of these phenomena awaits further theoretical and experimental investigations. The typical changes of forces experienced at supercritical speeds by a wing section of moderate thickness are shown!" in Fig. 155. The Mach number for force break is seen to be appreciably higher than the critical Mach number. At" Mach numbers higher than that for force break, the lift coefficient decreases, the drag coefficient increases, and the moment coefficient usually increases negatively. 9.6. Experimental Wing Characteristics at High Speeds. The existing three-dimensional lying theory, which is the basis for the concept of section characteristics, is not valid for supercritical speeds where part of the flow is supersonic. Consequently section data cannot be applied quantitatively to the prediction of the characteristics of wings at such speeds. Moreover, present trends for wings designed for efficient operation at supercritical speeds are toward low aspect ratios and large amounts of sweep. As EFFECTS OF COMPRESSIBILITY AT SUBSONIC SPEEDS 269 pointed out previously, section data are of doubtful quantitative signif­ icance for such plan forms at any speed. Under these circumstances, the detailed consideration of section characteristics as design data is not warranted. Nevertheless, the characteristics of wings at supercritical speeds de­ pend to some extent on the lying sections employed. The variation of the wing characteristics with wing section appears to be qualitatively similar to the variation of the wing-section characteristics- if the lying plan form is such as to permit any semblance to two-dimensional flow, Consequently, the purpose of this section is to present typical data showing qualitatively the major effects of variation of the wing profile at high subsonic Mach numbers. a. Lift Characteristic«; One of the first and most severe effects of com­ pressibility encountered in flight was the tendency of many airplanes to "tuck under" in high-speed dives. This U tucking under" tendency con­ sisted of a large negative shift in the angle of trim tbgether with a large increase of stability that resisted the efforts of the pilot to trim at the desired positive lift coefficients required for recovery from the dive. The resulting large elevator motions required to recover from the dive, or even to prevent the dive from becoming steeper, corresponded to excessive con­ trol forces, thus leading to the impression that the "~t.ick became frozen." These changes in longitudinal stability limited the maximum safe flying speed for many airplanes. These effects are intimately associated with tile changes in lift charac­ teristics of wing sections at Mach numbers above that for force break. The relatively thick cambered wing sections commonly used during the Second ,Vorld ar experienced a positive shift of the angle of zero lift and a reduction of lift-curve slope. Although ID3ny effects associated with other characteristics of the airplane are present, the change in angle of zero lift directly affects the angle of trim and the reduction of lift-curve slope directly increases the longitudinal stability. The shift in the angle of zero lift is associated with the camber of the wing section. ..~ symmetrical section shows, of course, no change in the angle of zero lift 116 (Fig. 156). The rather large positive shift in the angle of zero lift shown!" in Fig. 157 for the X.~(~.:\ 2409-34 section is typical for cambered sections without reflex. In this case, the change amounts to about 2 degrees for a change of Mach number from 0.80 to only 0.83. The effect of increasing the camber is showu'" by Fig. 158. Doubling the amount of camber causes a similar shift to occur at a lower Mach number. The effects of thickness on the lift characteristics of"symmetrical sec­ tions are shown" in Figs. 159 to 161 for the N..~CA 0006-34, 0008-34, and 0012-34 sections. The 6 per cent thick section shows a large increase of lift coefficient at a given angle of attack with increasing Mach number at "r THEORY OF WING SECTIONS 270 values below about 0.85. At Mach numbers above the force break, the lift coefficient decreases rapidly, but it never goes below the low-speed values, at least at Mach numbers up to 0.95. The 12 per cent thick section, however, fails to show much increase of lift coefficient at subcritical Mach numbers, but it shows a large decrease of lift coefficient at Mach numbers just above the force break.

At higher Mach numbers, the lift coefficients again increase. The effects of Mach number on the lift characteristics of the 8 per cent thick section are intermediate. These data show that the thin sections experience force breaks at higher Mach numbers than the thicker sections and that the lift force breaks are much less severe for the thin than for the thicker sections. The effects of thickness for a series of cambered sections are shown" in Figs. 162 to 165. These data indicate to an even greater degree the adverse effect of thickness on the character of the lift force break. Comparison of these data with those for the symmetrical sections (Figs. 159 to 161) shows the adverse effects of camber on the Mach number for lift force break anti on the shift in the angle of zero lift.

The outstanding characteristic of these data is the wide range of lift coefficients over which high Mach numbers for force divergence are realized as compared with the range for high critical Mach numbers. The predicted critical Mach numbers are lower than those for force divergence but approximate the latter values over the range of lift coefficients where the speed of sound is first reached near the location of minimum pressure at the design lift coefficient. It is apparent that critical Mach numbers predicted on the basis of the attainment of the velocity of EFFECTS OF COMPRESSIBILITY AT SUBSONIC SPEEDS 277 sound near the leading edge are useless as an indication of the force charac­ teristics of NACA 6-series sections.

These data indicated, at least qualitatively, that the peak maximum lift coefficient is determined by the critical Mach number at maximum lift which, of course, is attained at relatively low free-stream Mach numbers.

It should be noted that the maximum usable lift coefficient for an air­ plane at high Mach numbers may not be the same as the actual maximum lift coefficient. Referring to Fig. 170, the airplane may be unable to fly on the relatively flat portions of the lift curves above the force breaks, be­ cause of the serious buffeting associated with the partly separated flow and, perhaps also, because of stability and control difficulties. EFFECTS OF COJIPRESSIBILITY AT SUBSONIC SPEEDS 281 At supercritical speeds, changing the camber near the trailing edge, as by small deflections of a flap or aileron, cannot affect the flow over the front part of the section because pressures cannot propagate upstream through the supersonic region. Consequently, the flap effectiveness must be greatly reduced at supercritical Mach numbers. This effect is clearly shown!" by Fig. 172.

The rearward port.ion of a cambered section rna)" be considered to be a special case of a deflected flap. The loss of flap effectiveness at the force break leaves the forward portion of the section at an effectively lower angle of attack, and the resulting change in lift coefficient corresponds to a positive shift of the angle of zero lift. Conversely, a strongly reflexed section would show the opposite effect. It follows that the change in lift characteristics of cam­ bered sections may be reduced by incorporation of reflex or of an upwardly deflected flap. b. Drag Characteristics. The effect of thickness ratio on the drag characteristics of symmetrical wing sections is illustrated" by Figs. 173 to 175. These data show the typical rapid increase of drag coefficient at high Mach numbers. This rapid rise (force hreak) occurs at smaller Mach numbers as the angle of attack and thickness are increased.

Wings for High-speed Applications. As discussed in the previous section, all wing sections experience undesirable variations in their charac­ teristics at high subsonic Mach numbers. Although these undesirable variations can be minimized by the use of thin symmetrical sections, it does not appear to be possible to eliminate them in two-dimensional flow. In three-dimensional flow, however, it is obvious that the shocks cannot extend tothe wing tips without modification.

Effect of compressibility on the pitching moment of the NACA 2315 airfoil. 296 THEORY OF WING SECTIONS the lying tip with the accompanying sudden pressure rise would induce a three-dimensional flow that would tend to reduce the severity of the shock. The existence of such H tip relief" became apparent in early tests of propellers at high tip speeds. The data showed that losses of efficiency did not OCcur until tip Mach numbers were reached that were well in excess of those at which the sections used at the tips suffered large increases of drag in two­ dimensional flow, Corresponding advantages for "rings may be expected if the aspect ratio is sufficiently low, Experimental data have confirmed the advantages of low aspect ratio at high Mach numbers. The theoretical approach for wings of very low aspect ratio is entirely different from that for normal wings of high aspect ratio, and the concept of wing-section characteristics is not applicable. Jones" showed that, for wings with aspect ratios approaching zero, the lift depends on the angle of attack and on the positive rate of increase of span in the direction of the air flow, or db C, = ret dx where C, = local lift coefficient of section perpendicular to direction of air flow a = angle of attack b = span x = distance in the direction of air flow db/dx is positive This simplified theory indicates that C, = 0 for those portions of the wing where db/d,x is zero or negative. This theory shows that the center of lift for a triangular wing with the apex forward is at the center of area. The theory indicates that, for the particular ease of a slender triangular plan form, the lift coefficient and center of pressure are independent of Mach number at both subsonic and supersonic speeds so long as the wing lies well within the Mach cone. The applicability of the theory at a Mach number of 1.75 is shown by Fig. 188. Low-aspect-ratio wings of triangular plan form thus appear to provide one solution to the stability difficulties in the transonic speed range. Another solution to the problems of the transonic speed range is the use of large amounts of sweep. The manner in which sweep is effective is clearly seen from consideration of a wing of infinite span with sideslip (Fig. 189). It is obvious that the spanwise component of velocity V. will produce no forces on the wing, neglecting viscosity, and that the force on the wing will be determined by the normal component of velocity V". The- resulting velocity l' may be transonic or even supersonic, while the normal component V ft is less than the critical speed if the angle of sideslip, or sweep, fJ is sufficiently large.

Comparison of pressure distribution over normal and oblique wing. EFFECTS OF COMPRESSIBILITY AT SUBSONIC SPEEDS 299 sibility troubles was independently discovered by German investigators and by JonesU during the Second World War. Application of this principle results in wings with large amounts of sweepback or sweepforward. Such plan forms obviously violate the simple two-dimensional considerations at the root and tip even if the wing has no taper. These violations, however, do not appear to be sufficient to destroy the value of sweep if the wing is of reasonably high aspect ratio, as in­ dicated by tests'" of a wing placed obliquely across a two-dimensional wing tunnel (Fig. 190). Figure 191 shows that the pressure distribution over the center section of the oblique wing is reasonably close to that expected from the simple theory, despite the fact that the tunnel w8JIs violate the assumed end conditions. Experimental studies have shown that swept wings of all useful aspect ratios are effective in postponing and alleviating compressibility troubles. Consequently, the theory of swept wings of arbitrary plan forms is being intensively investigated. 1I • u , lG. U7 It thus appears that the wings of the high-speed airplanes of the future may be quite different from those of comparatively slow subsonic air­ planes. These highly swept low-aspect-ratio "rings, however, have serious disadvantages for the low-speed flight necessary for landing and take-off. Some of these disadvantages are lo\v lift-curve slopes, high angles of stall, and poor stability characteristics. These disadvantages seriously com­ promise the design of airplanes using such plan forms and may force the use of more conventional plan forms with very thin supersonic sections for some applications. In anycase, these disadvantages at slow speeds are expected to dictate the use of conventional plan forms for airplanes de­ signed for such speeds that it is possible toavoid serious compressibility difficulties by the use of thin wing sections.
