study of the problems of flight (U. S. Code, Title 50, Sec. 151). Its membership was increased to 15 by
act approved March 2, 1929. The members are appointed by the President, and serve as such without

AERODYNAMIC CHARACTERISTICS OF A LARGE NUMBER OF AIRFOILS TESTED IN
_[HE VARIABLE-DENSITY WIND TUNNEL
By ROBERT M. PINKERTONand HARRY GREENBERG
SUMMARY
The aerodynamic characteristics o9f a large number o.f
miscellaneous airfoils tested in the variable-density tunnel
have been reduced to a comparable.form and are publishedin this report .for convenient reference. Plots o.f the
standard characteristics are given .for each airfoil and, in
addition, the important characteristics are given in tabularform. Included also is a tabulation o.f important char-
acteristics.for the related airfoils reported in N. A. C. A.
Report No. _60.
This report, in conjunction with N. A. C. A. Report No.610, makes available in comparable and co_venient .form
the aerodynamic data .for airfoils tested in th_'_variable-
density tunnel since January 1, 1931.
INTRODUCTION
A large number of miscellaneous airfoils not included
in the systematic investigations reported in references 1and 2 have been tested in the variable-density tunnel.
The larger part of these airfoils consists of unrelatedsections, tests of which were requested by various
agencies; and the results, except those published in
reference 3, have not heretofore been available in pub-l_shed form. The rest of the airfoils consist of small
groups of related sections tested to study the effects of
certain local variations in shape.
One of these local shape variations involved changes
of the nose shape, consisting primarily of changes of theleading-edge radius. The effects of these changes were
determined by tests of modifications of the GSttingen398 (reference 4), of the Clark Y (reference 5), and of
the N. A. C. A. 2412 (unpublished). References 4 and
5 present data on the effect of sharp leading edges.The modifications to the N. A. C. A. 2412 consisted in
varying the leading-edge radius from normal to zero(N° A. C. A. 2412, ±_o A. C. A. 15, 16, 19, and 20) and
in dropping the leading edge from the normal position(N. A. C. A. 17 and 18). A second local shape variation
involved the rear portion of the airfoil and consisted
in. reflexing the mean line. Such modifications weremade on the GSttingen 398, the Boeing 106, and the
N-60 sections, and the results of the tests were pub-lished in reference 6. A series of related forward-
camber airfoils having reflexed mean lines was tested,
and the results were published in reference 7. Anotherseries of reflexed airfoils, for which the results have not
been published, includes the N. A. C. A. 21, 23, 24, 25,26, and 27 airfoils.
The results of these tests, including both published
and unpublished data, have not heretofore been avail_able in comparable form nor convenient for ready refer-
ence by the user. It has therefore been deemed desir-able to collect these data into one report.
This report, in conjunction with reference 2, makesavailable, in convenient form, comparable data for sec-
tions tested in the variable-density tunnel since Jan-
uary 1, 1931. The important fully corrected character-istics for the miscellaneous sections described earlier and
also for the sections reported in reference 1 are tabulated
for easy reference. In addition to the tabulated data,plots of standard aerodynamic characteristics are pre-sented for the miscellaneous airfoils.
TESTS AND APPARATUS
Routine airfoil tests were made in the variable-density
tunnel at an effective Reynolds Number of approxi-
mately 8,000,000. Tests of some of the models wereextended through the range of negative angles of attack.
Airfoils for which these results were obtained are desig-nated "inverted" sections. The duralumin models were
of rectangular plan form with a 5-inch chord and a
30-inch span. A description of the tunnel, the test
procedure, and the method of constructing the models
is given in reference 8.The precision of the tests and of the results is dis-
cussed in references 1 and 9.
RESULTS
The method chosen to present these results is in-tended to be convenient for designers. The important
characteristics, fully corrected as described in references
9 and 10, are presented in tables I and II and are com-
parable with those given in reference 2. These im-
portant characteristics are:
c_, the section maximum lift coefficient.
a_0, the angle of zero lift.
REPORT NO. 628--NATIONAL ADVISORY COMMITTEE FOR AERONAUTICS
ao, the section lift-curve slope.
Czopt, the optimum lift coefficient, or the section
lift coefficient corresponding to c_0m__.
Cdo,,,, the minimum profile-drag coefficient.
cma.c., the pitching-moment coefficient about the
section aerodynamic center.
a.c., the aerodynamic center, or the point, with
respect to the airfoil section, about which
the pitching-moment coefficient tends to
remain constant over the range of lift
coefficients between zero and maximum
lift.
c.p., the position of the center of pressure in
percentage of the chord behind the
leading edge.
m6_ the lift-curve slope for aspect ratio 6.
A more complete description of these characteristics is
presented in references 9 and 10.
Tables I and II contain these data for available
sections tested in the variable-density tunnel, except
those given in reference 2. Reference is made to the
original publication for the airfoil results that have
been previously reported.
Plots of the standard clmracteristics (figs. 1 to 88)
are given for the miscellaneous sections (exclusive of
those for the N. A. C. A. 22112, 23112, 24112, and 25112
sections, which are published in reference 7) because
they are not available elsewhere. Plots for the sections
in table I are given in reference 1.
