SWEPT WEÄ3S IN ROLIIHG FLOW

By David Feigenbaum and Alex Goodman

SUMMARY

An investigation was conducted to determine the characteristic« of a aeries of untapered wines having angles of sweepback of -45°, 0°, 4$°, and 00° under conditions simulating rolling flight. The rolling-flow equipment of the Langley stability tunnel was used to measure all six force and moment components. Vhe characteristics of the vlngs In straight flow were e.l3c- determined during the course of the investigation to afford a comparison vlth previous results - Teste were also conducted to determine the characteristics of ailerons on the lf5° swcptb&ck wing in both straight and rolling flow.

In general, the results of tests of the wings in straight flew were consistent with results obtained in previous low-scale Investigations.

The tests in rolling flow showed that, for the swept wings, the lateral-force coefficient varied with ving-tip helix engle. Because of this variation, the yawing-moment coefficient at a given rate of roll will be dependent upon the value of the lateral-force coefficient at that rate of roll.

Although the value of the derivative of yawing-moment coefficient with respect to wing-tip lielix angle was negative for all positive lift coefficients up to the stall for the unawept ving, the value of this derivative for each of the swept wines changed from negative to positive at some moderate lift coefficient.

In general, the damping In roll became more negative with Increasing values of the lift coefficient for all the swept wings tested. Tests on the 45° eweptbaok wing shoved an appreciable reduction In the rate of change of wing-tip helix angle with aileron angle because of the Increased damping in roll at the higher lift coefficients.

nrntorocTioif

A knowledge of the rotary stability derivatives Is required before calculations can be made to determine the dynamic stability of an airplane or the motions of an airplane after a control displacement. Theoretical values of the derivatives of the forces and moments due to rolling, pitching, or yawing have teen used in -the past because of the difficulty of obtaining experimental results with conventional test equipment. The calculated values of these derivatives have served fairly veil for the determination of the dynamic behavior of unawept or moderately 3vept wings. Good theoretical values for the stability derivatives of highly swept wings, however, have not yet been obtained, end calculations have failed to predict accurately the dynamic behavior of airplanes with highly swept wings. Several of the rotary derivatives have been determined experimentally for both unsveyt and Ewopt wings using tho forced rotation and oscillation methods described In references 1 and 2. These methods give reliable results for certain derivatives but cannot be conveniently used to determine the derivatives of all six forces and moments with respect to rotation about each of the axes. All of the force and moment derivatives with respect to rolling can be determined rather simply, however, by means of the rolling flow method described in reference 3- The results of reference 3 and unpublished data on swept wings indicate that the value of the rolling moment due to rolling obtained by the rolling flow method are In good agreement with values obtained by the forced rotation method.

/ • The results of a preliminary investigation of a series of

untapered swept vings in boUi straight and rolling flow are presented in this paper.

SYMBOLS

The data are presented in the form of standard NACA coefficients of forces and momenta which are referred in all cases to the stability exes, with the origin at the quarter chord point of the mean geometric chord of the models tested. The positive directions of the forces, moments, and angular displacements are shown in figure 1. The coefficients and symbols used herein are defined as follows:

AFPARATC6 AMI) TESTS

The tests of the present Investigation were conducted In the 6-foot circular test section of the Langley stability tunnel which le equipped with a motor-driven rotor and vanes for rotating the air stream about the tunnel axis (see reference 3). The models were rigidly mounted at the quarter-chord of the mean geometric chord on a single strut support (fig. 2) which was attached to a conventional six-component balance. By means of this equipment, rolling flight is simulated by rolling the air stream with respect to the rigidly mounted model.

The models tested consisted of four untapered wings of approximately the same area, all of which had equal chords (10 in.) and MACA 0012 sections in planes normal to the leading edge (see fig. 3)- The wings had sveepback angles of -1*5°, 0°, k3°, and 60° and the corresponding aspect ratios were 2.6l, 5.16, 2.61, and 1-31*, respectively. The U50 sweptback wing was equipped with 20-percent wing chord and 50-percent wing semispan plain ailerons. The aileron nose gaps were sealed with plasticine.

All tests were run at a dynamic pressure of 39.7 pounds per square foot, which corresponds to a Mach number of 0.17. The test Reynolds numbers, based on the mean geometric chords of the models, are

Both straight-flow and rolling-flow characteristics of the ^5° eweptback wing with ailerons I0.20c, 0.50^1 were obtained for angles :

CORRECTIONS

Although there has been no sycteuatio investigation of tunnel corrections for swept wings, calculations for a few specific models have indicated that corrections for tunnel wall effect are determined primarily by the spans and. areas of models and are not creatly affected by sweep. Corrections previously developed for unsvopt wings therefore were applied to the present wings regardless uf the angle of sweep. The corrections were made to lcngitudinel-force coefficients, rolling-moment coefficients, and angles of attaok by the following equations:

Characteristics in Straight Flow

She characteristics of the present series of swept wings obtained In straight flow are approximately the same as would be expected on the basis of previous low-scale tests. (See reference 6.) The aspect ratios of the swept wings used in the present investigation differed from these reported in reference 6. The wings of the present series all had approximately the same area and the aspect ratio reduced with sweep angle approximately as the cos A. Because of the variation between aspect ratio and sweep angle.

A comparison of the calculated and. experimental values far thee« derivatives is shown in figure 10 • The arreement is reasonably good although the calculated values underestimate the effects of sweep.

It should be noted that the values for the ^5° sweptforward vlng deviate from the calculated values slightly more than do the values for the Vj° eweptback wing* Also noticeable about the 42° sweptforward wins (see fig. k) is that its aerodynamic center is located farther back on the mean Geometric chord (0.32 mean geometric chord) than the aerodynamic centers of the unswopt or sveptback wings (0.19 to 0.22 mean geometric chord) and that its maximum lift coefficient (about 0.8) Is lower than that of the unswept or h^° sveptback wings (about 1.0) end much lower than that of the 66° oweptback wing (about 1.2 at a = 36°). The value of C, for the kj0 sweptforward wing Is practically zero up to a

lift coefficient of about 0.6 (see fig. 9), and the maximum positive value of C|. for the 1*5° sweptforward wing is about two-thirds the

lMTlimim positive value attained by the V?° sveptback wing.

All the wings tested become increasingly stable longitudinally as they approached and exceeded maximum lift coefficient, which Is In agreement with the correlation presented in reference 7.

from tests at values of —— of ±0.OhhS are presented In firure 15- 2T

Dynamic stability calculations in the past have neclectecl tiie effects of variation of lateral force with rate of roll nines ouch a variation vas not found to exist for unsveyt wings belov the stall. For swept wings, however, such a variation doer; e::iet as Indicated In figure 15. Figure 15 bhovs that for a limited ran^ the values of Oy- are neerly proportional to the lift coefficient,which would be expected frou calculations basod on the simplified theory discussed in reference 6. At moderate lift coefficients, hovever, the values of Cw for the svept wirißs markedly decreased in meyiitu^e, In seme

P caoes even reversing sirji.

For the uncwept wing, the negative value of C varied linearly

with lift coefficient up to the maximum lift coefficient. The values of C_ for the swept wir^s, however, wore proportional to the lift

P coefficient for only a limited range and. at moderate lift coefficients, reversed sign and assumed lerge positive values. Tor low lift

coefficients the values of the slope (?) cL=c (see fig* 16) became

more negative as the angle of BweepbacK was increased.

The values of CL shown in ficv<re 15 are for moments taken

about ttio quarter-chord point of the mean Geometric chord shown in figure 3- Because of the existence of the derivative Cy for

swept vrineSjthe value of C will vary with the longitudinal

location of the point about which the moments are calculated. That these two derivatives are Interdependent is indicated in fi£,ure 15 by the fact that both undergo abrupt varietionr. In slopo at the same lift coefficients.

For the unsweut wins, the value of the damping in roll C, was *P

to positive. The values of C, for the swept wings generally 'p

•become more negative with an increasing value of lift coefficient over the greater part of the lift-coefficient ron-e. Eo positive values of C, were obtained for the swept -fingt for the ru«<je of

P angle of attack tested, even beyond the maximum lift coefficient.

Application of the eiinplif led theory to tho present series of vlngs leads to the following expression:

A comparison of the calculated values with those measured at low lift coefficients is presented in figure IS and indicates that the decrease In C. with angle of sweep is slightly more rapid than

*P predicted by the calculations.

Aileron Characteristics

The recults of the tarts made to determine the characteristics of the aileron? on the V?° sweptback win.3 are presented in figure 17. Teste were rade in both etraljjit fmd rolling flow with both ailerons deflected through the same angle, but in opposite directions. The rolling flow data are for the condition of zero rolling moment. The data indicate that the variation of rolling ncnent with alloron deflection falls off slightly with increasing angle of attack, which, coupled with the increase of damping in roll with angle of attack.

pb causes the variation in •=•— with alleren deflection to fall off

2V somevbat rapidly with an^le of attack.

For the range of angle cf attuck considered, the yawing moment due to roll (fig. 15) is of the same sign an the yavlnt; moment due to aileron deflection, (flg.l7(a))and therefore, the yawing moment of the rolling wing will be jjreater than that due to the ailerons alone. The lateral force due to roll is of the opposite sign and of a greater magnitude than the lateral force due to aileron deflection« which will result in a reversal of lateral force during the transition

CONCLtEIOHB

The results of low-scale tests made In streikt and rolling flow on a series of untapered swept wings having equal chords in planes normal to the leading edge and approximately equal areas Indicate the following conclusions:

1. In General, the characteristics of the vines in straight flow are consistent vith results obtained in previous investigations-

2. A variation of lateral-force coefficient with wing-tip helix angle was found to exist for the swept wings. Because of this variation, the yawing-moment coefficient at a given rate of roll will ee dependent upon the value of the lateral) -force coefficient at that rate of roll.

3- Although the value of the derivative of yawing-moment coefficient with respect to wing-tip helix an^le wa3 negative for all positive lift coefficients up tc the stall for tho unwept wing, the value of this derivative for the swept wings changed from negative to positive at some moderate lift coefficients.

It. The damping In roll generally 'becomes more negative with Increasing vrxlues of the lift coefficient for all of the swept wings tested.

5. Tests on the U50 Bveptback wing showed an epprecia'ble reduction in the rate of change of helix angle with aileron angle with Increasing angle of attack 'because of the increased dumping In roll at higher lift coefficients.
