It is well known that the separation point of a boundary-layer flowing over an impermeable surface is defined by the vanishing of the skin friction at that point. Previous investigations have assumed that this condition ...
The effect of aircraft size upon the response of an aircraft during those manoeuvres which are commonly employed in landing has been examined, and in this way an assessment has been made of the way in which the difficulties ...
Two recent papers have investigated the effect of variable surface temperature on heat transfer. It seems therefore worth while to record the extension of the method given in R. & M. 1986 to the case of variable surface ...
During the preparation at the N.P.L. of a manual of tunnel interference the necessity arose for calculating additional values of the blockage-interference corrections for small bodies in incompressible flow in rectangular ...
It is shown on the basis of the linearised theory that the effects of compressibility on the lift and hinge-moment characteristics of a wing and full-span control are functions of aspect ratio. With reduction in aspect ...
The influence of spanwise flow on the lift distribution for a thin flexible wing of any plan form is considered. By the use of Eulel's equations for incompressible, inviscid flow, it is shown that the lift distribution is ...
In studying anct comparing various theories for the determination of the distribution of loading on wings, Garner has given values for the lift slope of several families of swept-back and delta wings deduced from several ...
