Theoretical span loading and moments of tapered wings produced by aileron deflection

NASA Technical Reports Server (NTRS) · 1937 · 5 pictures

This is a 1937 NACA technical note on aerodynamic theory for tapered aircraft wings, published for aeronautical engineers and researchers by the NASA Technical Reports Server. Its pictures are dense engineering graphs of span loading curves, aspect ratio and taper-ratio plots, and damping-moment charts drawn in black ink on white paper with fine grids. A designer might take from them only the restrained, grid-based chart vocabulary of mid-century technical reports, with plain curve families labelled by letters and numbers.
