OF 1.41 AND 2.01

By Cornelius Driver

An investigation has been conducted in the Iangley 4- by &-foot supersonic press-me tunnel t o determine the aerodynamic characterist ics in p i tch end s ides l ip of a c -sd airplule model at Mach numbers of 1.41 md 2.01. The body of t he mde l had e f ineness ra t io of 10.57 and was equigped with e. trapezoidal caard surface wi-th a~ area 12 percen-i of the wing mea. Two wings of equal area but differ ing in plan form were irmestigzted. One had a trapezoidal plan fora with e a unswept 80-percent- cnord l ine, 'a aspect ra t io of 3, and a t q e r retio 03 O.lk3; the other had e 60° delta plan f o m with an espect ra t io of 2.31. The Eodel we.s equipped with a low-espect-ratio vertical t a i l end twin ventral f ins.

The cenards were highly eXective in prodwing pitching moments which resul ted in large increments or' trLn lift coefficient with sma l l coztrol deflections md no decrease i n l i f t - c m v e slope, so the t rela- tively high values of t r i m lift coefficient m d %rh- lift-drag r a t io s were obtained. The delta-wir-g configuration had a mximm t r b u e d l i f t - drag r a t i o & 4.8 a t a Mach nunber ol' 1.41 and 5.0 a t a Mach n u b e r of 2.01. Both the presence of the canard and deflections of the c-d caused a reduct ion in the direct ionel s tabiuty, par t icular ly at high acgles of attack. However, the delta-wing config..ration mintained direc- t iof iEl s tabi l i ty i~i) to zqgles or attack of 12.5' at a bkch nmber of 2.01.

Coaventional a i rc raf t in advancix?? Trorr subsonic t o supersonic f l i g h t generally emerience aa increase in longitudinal stability. This increase in lor-gitudinel stability results from e reerward shift in the wing ceriter of pressure as w e l l as fron w i n g - l i f t carryover to t he ifuse- lage efterbody and the loss ofnwing downwash at the horizoll”la1 tail. Beceuse of the increased 1ongitEdinal stability .zt supersonic speeds lmge deflections of the horizontal taLl are required for tr ir ing, with an attendant loss in l i f t , increase in drag, and decrease i n maneuveriag cepability.

One agproach for alleviating the stabil i ty increase is through the use of a delta-wing t a i l l e s s coxt’iguration whereby ti.-e cer-ter-of-pressure shift is minimized and t’ne downwash changes at the t a i l end the wing-lift cazryover effects are elirzineted. However, for the tailless configura- t ion the deflectton of a traili-ng-eiige f l ap for control results ir- a decreese i n t o t e l l i f t as well es En increme Ln drag. These conditions m e general-ly IWther aggravated by the large deflection engles required because of the inherently short nonent arm f o r such controls. In addi-lion, l i t t l e excess control deflection nay be available to provide -for maneuvering.

Logicslly, another approach t o consider wozld be the use of a canard I

arrarlgenezt which renoves the control from +,he region of wing downwesh end minimizes the wing-lift carryover effects by virtue of the short L

fuselage afterbodies usually enployed. The control effectiveness of the csnard would be xain-bained as high as possible throEgh the use of a long norrent a r m with only small deflections and l i f ts reqaired so tha t the wake effects and drag fro= the cmerd would be miniiiized. The use of a lmg momnt ar~z is coxpatible with the need for high-fineness-ratio bodies a t scsersonic speeds bat nay be res t r ic ted by the nonlineer monent characteriszics of long bodies. The adverse effects of the long body on the directior_al chazracteristics of the cmwd configvrration would be es severe as f o r comrentional configuretions. In addition, the wake effects from the forward s-arface may further d f e c t the directional characterist ics.

In the past, the canard configurations have encountered serious subsonic problems. These groblerns have been primarily that of provid iq lo2gitudinal trim ai; mxim i i f 5 ( r e f . 1), adverse directional effects a t high l if ts ( re f . 2) , c.nd LimLted ceEter-of-gravity travel (ref. 3 ) . It would be expected thaz sor-e of these su5sonic problens m y s t i l l be presert , but the performce and trin-iift benefits possible a t super- sonic speeds prcmpts rerewed effort in solving these subsonic difficult ies. ’ *

Longitudinel Characteristics

A signif icant chmacter is t ic of tne canaxd confignation is the fac t that the canard control when del"lecte8 f o r t r i m i n g has essentially ncl effect on the total l i f t ( f igs . 4 tc 7). This is in contrast to con- rentional tail-rearwzrd configurations w3erein the t a i l deflections recpired for tr irning produce substantial reductions in l i f t . (See refs . 4 and 5 , for exmqle.) Hence, when triaming with coxventional taTl-reerward configurctions, it is necessary t o increase the angle of

The Lacrease i n angle of cttack required i n trimming conventional configurations causes EJI added incre- ment of drag that does not arise for the cmwd configuretion.

Tie canard cootrol offers other advantages in the3 smll deflections of the czsard may be highly effective ir providing mmcts which r e su l t i n higher t r i m l i f t coefr'icients because of the long moment arm zvaflsble end beccuse the lift required t o trin fs positive. The ativantages of high trin? l i f t coefficients at smll control deflections and snell angles of attack me apparect in the trimed l i f t -dreg ra t ios wherein re la t ive ly high values of L/D are obtained a t low l i f t coefficients. The delta- wing configuration, for ex-le, had e n?axim.m t r imed l i f t -&ag ra-bio of 4.8 at M = 1.41 and 5.0 at M = 2.01 ( f ig . 12).

However, the s ign i f i cmt trim advantages noted f o r the cenerd corfiguretiors i n conparison with con- ven-lioEal configuretions should s t i l l be realized.

Compzred on the basis of the SEE center of noments (body station 25), the delta-wing configuration exhibited slightly b e t t e r l o x i t u d i n e l trin charac te r i s t ics ( f ig . 12) si-n-ce t h i s azrangeneni; ha6 the lower s t a t i c nzrgin.

Since the pitching-Eoaent results obtained for both codikations inti i- cate a reasonzbly lirrear variation with L i f t coefficient tbccougb a lazge l i f t r a g e , it would be possi'ole t o reduce -&e static vmgin t'r?rough a reawzrd sh i f t of the center of gravity so that additional increases in trio l i f t -drag ra t io and i n tzim lift coefficient might be o'otained. For exmple, for the delta-wing configuration &-L M = 2.01, it w a s fomd t'nat by decreasipz the s t a t i c =gin _Pro= 22 percent to 15 percent of the E e a georretric chord the naxi- trim lift-6rag r a t i o was increased from 5.0 t o 5.6 a d the naxim~ t r i m l i f t coefficient fro= 0.237 t o 0.385.

The direct ional s tabi l i ty character is t ics of the cmerd configura- t ions ( f ig . 15) are similar t o %hose for other current aircraft types insofar as the reduction in w i t h increasing mgle of attack is concerned (ref. 6). This s imilar i ty might be expected because of the short aornent a r m of the ver t ical tail. For both wing configurations, either the presence of the canard surface or cznard deflection caused a reduction in the direct ional s tabi l i ty , per t iculer ly a t the higher angles of a t tack ( f igs . 8 t o 11). Posit ive directions1 stabil i ty was mintained, however, t o a = 12.5' for the delta-wing configuration at M = 2.01 ( f ig . 15( b ) ). The d i rec t iona l s tab i l i ty chwecter i s t ics a t angle of attack could be improved a t these Mach nwbers by the use of a higher- aspect-ratio vertical t a i l or a vent ra l f in w i t h more area rearward of the center of gravity.
