Book Description
The effects of Mach numbers up to 0.34 and Reynolds number up to 8,000,000 on the maximum lift coefficient of the wing of NACA 66-weries airfoil sections are presented. The wing was tested with full-span and partial-span split flaps deflected 60 degrees and without flaps. The results indicated that the peak values of maximum lift coefficient occurred at free-stream Mach numbers of approximately 0.212 and 0.227 for the flaps-retracted configuration and 0.138 and 0.196 for the full-span flaps-deflected configuration for tunnel pressures of 33 and 14.7 pounds per square inch, respectively.
