Book Description
An investigation was made in the Langley Unitary Plan wind tunnel to determine the behavior of paraglider models at moderate to high supersonic speeds. The models were deployed from a sting in the supersonic stream and steady-state aerodynamics performance data were obtained. Maximum values of the lift-drag ratio were about 1.4 at a Mach number of 2.65 and about 1.2 at a Mach number of 4.65. The angles of attack over which the models could be flown were limited by unsteady behavior of the canopy.

Experimental and Theoretical Studies of the Effects of Camber and Twist on the Aerodynamic Characteristics of Parawings Having Normal Aspect Ratios of 3 and 6
Author: Edward Charles Polhamus
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Aerodynamics
Languages : en
Pages : 48
Book Description
Low-speed wind-tunnel studies were made of the effects of camber and twist and the effects of aspect ratio on the aerodynamic characteristics of parawings. To determine the effects of camber and twist, tests were made both with the conventional conical-type canopy, which provides camber and washout, and with a cylindrical-type canopy which provides essentially zero camber and twist. With regard to aspect ratio, tests were made of parawings having aspect ratios of 3 and 6; the range was thereby extended well beyond that of previous investigations. The degree to which airfoil and wing theory can be used to predict the aerodynamic characteristics of parawings was also investigated.
