Book Description
A New Edition of the Most Effective Text/Reference in the Field! Aerodynamics, Aeronautics, and Flight Mechanics, Second Edition Barnes W. McCormick, Pennsylvania State University 57506-2 When the first edition of Aerodynamics, Aeronautics, and Flight Mechanics was published, it quickly became one of the most important teaching and reference tools in the field. Not only did generations of students learn from it, they continue to use it on the job-the first edition remains one of the most well-thumbed guides you'll find in an airplane company. Now this classic text/reference is available in a bold new edition. All new material and the interweaving of the computer throughout make the Second Edition even more practical and current than before! A New Edition as Complete and Applied as the First Both analytical and applied in nature, Aerodynamics, Aeronautics, and Flight Mechanics presents all necessary derivations to understand basic principles and then applies this material to specific examples. You'll find complete coverage of the full range of topics, from aerodynamics to propulsion to performance to stability and control. Plus, the new Second Edition boasts the same careful integration of concepts that was an acclaimed feature of the previous edition. For example, Chapters 9, 10, and 11 give a fully integrated presentation of static, dynamic, and automatic stability and control. These three chapters form the basis of a complete course on stability and control. New Features You'll Find in the Second Edition * A new chapter on helicopter and V/STOL aircraft- introduces a phase of aerodynamics not covered in most current texts * Even more material than the previous edition, including coverage of stealth airplanes and delta wings * Extensive use of the computer throughout- each chapter now contains several computer exercises * A computer disk with programs written by the author is available

Effects of Overhang Balance on the Hinge-moment and Effectiveness Characteristics of an Unswept Trailing-edge Control on a 60 Degree Delta Wing at Transonic and Supersonic Speeds

Pages : 52
Book Description
A wind-tunnel investigation has been made of two unswept, partial-span, flap-type controls (differing only in hinge-line location) mounted on a 60 degree delta wing. One control was unbalanced and the other has a 100-percent overhang balance. Control hinge moments as well as aerodynamic characteristics of the complete wing-body combination were obtained for control deflections from 0 to 40 degrees over an angle-of-attack range of plus or minus 12 degrees at Mach numbers from 0.75 to 1.96. Reynolds numbers varied between 2,200,000 and 2,200,000. Expressions derived from linear theory for the hinge-moment coefficient due to angle of attack for unswept partial-span controls (which extend neither to the wing tip nor to the wing center line) on triangular wings having subsonic leading edges are given in an appendix.
