A calibration of the 8 ft x 8 ft wind tunnel has been performed at subsonic speeds using a multiple orifice, traversing, static pressure probe on the tunnel centreline. Full details have been obtained of the static pressure ...
The results show that for longitudinal stability at M = 0.3 and C L = 0.45, the centre of gravity of an actual aircraft could be located only forward of 45% c (66% Co). The centre of pressure of the wing with basic nose ...
The tests were made in the 8 ft x 8 ft wind tunnel at R.A.E. Bedford on a 1/36 scale model of a possible design for a supersonic transport aircraft. The wing camber was designed, using slender-wing theory, to have attached ...
