Wind Tunnel Investigation of a Plain Aileron with Various Trailing-edge Modifications on a Tapered Wing
註釋An investigation was made in the LMAL 7- by 10-foot tunnel of various modifications to the trailing edge of a 0.155-chord plain aileron on a semispan model of the tapered wing of a fighter airplane. The modifications considered in the present report were: (1) plain and unrigged ailerons with fixed positive tabs to provide upfloating tendencies and allow reduction of stick force through the use of conventional differential aileron linkages; and (2) plain and downrigged ailerons with fixed negative tabs to provide downfloating tendencies and allow reductions of stick force through the use of reversed differential aileron linkages. The effect of a gap at the aileron nose was investigated for each of the basic modifications.
