Book Description
An investigation at low scale has been made in the Langley stab unity tunnel in order to determine the effect of linear spanwise variations of twist and circular-arc camber on the low-speed aerodynamic characteristics and static-stability and rotary-stability (rolling and yawing) derivatives of a wing of aspect ratio 4, taper ratio 0.6, and with 45 deg sweepback of the quarter-chord line. Results of the investigation indicate that twist or camber produced only small changes in the maximum lift coefficient. A combination of camber and twist was more effective than twist alone in providing an increase in the maximum lift-to-drag ratio in the moderate lift-coefficient range for the wings investigated. The variation of static longitudinal stability through the lift-coefficient range was less for the twisted wing than for the twisted and cambered or plane wing. A combination of twist and camber generally extended the initial linear range of several of the static- and rotary-stability derivatives to a higher lift coefficient and, although these effects were small, higher Reynolds numbers may result in larger effects.

Book Description
Originator of many of the theories used in modern wing design, Robert T. Jones surveys the aerodynamics of wings from the early theories of lift to modern theoretical developments. This work covers the behavior of wings at both low and high speeds, including the range from very low Reynolds numbers to the determination of minimum drag at supersonic speed. Emphasizing analytical techniques, Wing Theory provides invaluable physical principles and insights for advanced students, professors, and aeronautical engineers, as well as for scientists involved in computational approaches to the subject. This book is based on over forty years of theoretical and practical work performed by the author and other leading researchers in the field of aerodynamics. Originally published in 1990. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press. These editions preserve the original texts of these important books while presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions. The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is to vastly increase access to the rich scholarly heritage found in the thousands of books published by Princeton University Press since its founding in 1905.
