Interference of Wing and Fuselage from Tests of Eight Combinations in the NACA Variable-density Tunnelcombinations with Tapered Fillets and Straight-side Junctures

NASA Technical Reports Server (NTRS) · 1938 · 3 pictures

This is a 1938 NACA technical note from the NASA Technical Reports Server, reporting wind tunnel tests of wing and fuselage junction combinations for aircraft designers and aerodynamicists. The first picture is a graph of drag coefficient against lift coefficient for several configurations, the second a fillet curve drawing, and the third photographs of wing-fuselage models with straight-side junctures. A designer might borrow the clean, minimal line-graph style and the sleek streamlined silhouettes of the aircraft models.
