Calculated loadings due to incidence of a number of straight and swept-back wings

Abstract

In this report are collected together the calculated aerodynamic loadings due to incidence of a number of straight and swept-back wings. The calculations follow in the main the routine described previously in another report, but include additions concerned with induced camber and induced drag. An additional investigation is made of the effect of the N.A.C.A. camber on the properties at zero lift of a rectangular wing of aspect ratio 6. A table is given of loading functions for use in auxiliary solutions when the wing plan has a discontinuity of direction at an arbitrary position along the span.
