A------- “ TESTS OF THE I!ACA 653-018 AIk.FOILSECTION WITH BOUNDARY-”LA”YER CONTROL BY SUCTION By John H. Quinn, ill?. “ .

slJmM1-mY “ . Tests of the NACA 655-013 atrfoil section with .boundary-layeu control’ by suction have been made In the Langley-two=dirensional ~ow-turbulence and Langley two- dimensional Iow’-turbulsnce pressure tunnels. Slots were tested at 30 and 75 percent and at 45 and 75 percent of the airfoil chord at Reynolds numbers of 1.9 and 6.0 x 106.

An attempt was made to remove only a moderate amount of alr through the slots and to locate the slots so that the low-dra~ ~ropertles of the airfoil could be reallzed. The results of these tests were compared with results for a plain NACA 6J3-OIS airfo~l section.

A maximum section lift coefficient of 1.85 at a Reynolds number of 6.o x 106 was obtained on the YACA 653-018 airfoil section with boundary-layer control when the total amount of air removed corresponded to a flow having free-stream veloclty.through an area equal to approximately 1.2 percent of the wing area.

ml s lift coeffiolent was found at approximately the same angle of maximum lift as for the plain airfoil and with suction slots at 45 and 75 percent of the airfoil chord.

The surface discontinuity, which would be found with a flush-t~e sliding door placed at 45 percent of the air- foil chord,would not impair the low-drag properties of ‘this airfoil section.

INTRODUCTION Extensive investigations have been made to develop various types of’devioe to increase the maximum lift of airfoils. The most common high-lift detices are the tratling-edge flap and the leading-edge slat.

these devices have d~sadvantages; the flap produces high pitching moments, whereas a slat definitely llmlts -theregion of lamlnar flow and thus results in high drag even when retracted.

The purpose of the present investigation was to determine the increase in msximum lift coefficient that could be obtained with the arrangement of the NACA 65q-G18 airfo?.1section presmted herein by using bohdary-1-ayer control antiremoving only a moderate amount of air. Locating tbs slots so that the low-drag properties of the airfoil could be reallzed was given primary consideration in the design. By sucking low- energy air off the upper surface of the airfoil, separation of the flow at high lift cogf?iciants may be greatly dela~ed flxithe straight nortion of the llft curve may be extended to higher angles of attack.

The arpl!catlon of boundary-la:rercontrol to :ncrease maxtmrcnItft seem advantageous for use with tailless air~jl.afies.

The hl~~.plichln.~ moments associated with flaps, which would be prohibitive on such a design, and the high drag of leading-edge slats &re avoided.

653-018 sym- In the Present lnvast~gatton, an NACA metrical low-drag a~rfoil secticn was tested in the Lan:ley two-dimens+.onal iow-turbulence and the Langley two-dimensional low-turbulence prassure tunnels (desig- nated LV17 and TDr, respectively) at Reynolds numbers of approximately 1.9 x 10C and 6.o x 104.

Subscripts: 30 at 30 peroent of’the alrfoll chord at 45 percent of the airfoil chord at 75 pe~cent of the ai.rfollchord MODEL Ah9 TESTS The alrfotl used in the present investigation was a 5&inch-chord wooden model of tha NACA 653-018 airfoil section, which was painted and prenared for-testing by tha methods described in reference 1. The slots and ducting arrangement are shown in figure 1. The slots were used in pairs; either the slots at 0.30c and 0.75c or the slots at G.~5c and 0.75c were used togsther.

Air was sucked off the u~per surface through the slots into the ducts in the model and out through the side of the tunnel. Cutside the tunnel, the air from each slot was piped through an individual Venturi to ‘11.e quantity of air flow was the inlet cf a blower.

dstorminod by mcas-aringtotal and static pressures in the Venturi throat. Tobal-pressure tubes wem placed ln9i?e the win~ ducts to determine tireloss in total pressurs incurred In suckkg the air through tie slots.

In order to immure this loss for the slots at 0.30c and 0.45c, ona total-pressure tube was fastenad to che downstream wall of the forward duet; for tke glot at 0.75c, one total-pressure tube was fastened to the upstream wall of the rear duct, Approximately twice as much air was sucked from the wing through the rear slot as through the front slot. Frelimhary tests were made with tufts to determino the corract proportion of the total flew to be removed through each slet for affective operation.

Prasaure-distributionmeasurements were made by placing a small stat:c-~ressure tube at a series of chordwiso stations about 3/32 Inch above the airfoil surface. At aach station, the tube was bent to approxi- mate the contour of’the airfoil. Lifts obtained from integration of pressure-distribution diagrams obtained NACA CB No. L@O . .

by this method ha+ been found to be in good agreement .

with the llf%s- obtained--from fcmo6- teats.. -Lif.ti was determined by integrating ths pressures along the floor @ oelllng of the tunnel teat ssotion. External drag was meawureilby the wal%-survey method.- Both lift and drag oopfflcients hava been corrected for tunnel-wall Interference.

Boundary-layer measurements were made by the method described in reference 2.

.were calculated on the assumption The values of od% that the air removed fr~ the boundary layer was exhausted at free-stream total pr9ssure. When the power required for boundary-layer control is calculated on this basis, there are no additional power effects due to an excess or defeot of total Fressure at the point where the boundar~la~r air is exhausted. The required power was furnished by a machine that was assumed to be 100 percent efficient.

RESULTS AND DISCUSSION The lift characteristics of the NACA 655-018 airfoil section with and without boundary-layer control are presented in figure 2.

The characteristics for the plain airfoil at a Reynolds number of 6.o x 106 were taken from revious tests of a ~-inch-chord model of the NACA 853-018 airfoil section in the TDT (unpublished). A maximum section lift coefficient of 1.85 was obtained in the TDT at a Reynolds number of 6.o x 106 for a flow coefficient Or 0.0120. For”this flow coefficient, the total amount of air removed from the boundary layer corresponded to a flow with free-stream velocity through an area equal to approximately 1.2 percent of the”wing area.

Figure 3 shows that, at an &gle of attack near maximum lift and for a given lift coefficient below a flow coefficient of 0.0120, more air was required for the slots at 0.450 and 0.75c than for the slots at 0.300 alla0.75C.

This phenomenon may be explalned by the fact that the boundary layer was thinner at 0.30c than at 0.L5c.and, consequently, less air was required to control the boundary layer with the slot at 0.300 than with the slot farther downatrbam. Figure 3 also NACA CB No. I@Ilo lndloates that. at an amzle of attack near maximum lift and for a givefilift coe~ficient, a,lower flow coef’fl-- clent was required at R = 6.o X-l(3b than at R = 1.9 x 106. Since the boundary layer was thinner at the higher Reynolds number, relatiwly less air was required t“ocontrol the boundary layer at a Reynolds nmber of 6.0 X 10~ than was required at a Reynolds - number of 1.9 x 106.

No improvement could be obtained other than a straightening of the lift curve; therefore, greater Increments were possible at the lower Reynolds number. At an ahgle of attack of 12.J0, the favorable effect of Reynolds number Is clearly shown and the difference between the cur%ms for the slots at 0.30c and 0.75c and at 0.45c and 0.75c has disappeared.

Little scale effect on maximum llft Is evident in figure 2 at the msximum flow rate for the test eynolds t number range. At a Reynolf: number of 1.9 x 10 , the angle of maximur.lift was ~ higher fcr tineairfoil with slots than for the plain airfoil. At a“Re~olds number of 6.0 x 106, the angle of naximum llft was approxi- mately 3° lowe? for the airfoil with slots than for the plain a rfoil. In the LTT, at a Reynolds number i the maximum llft coefffcienz at the highest of 1.9 x 10 flow rate wag found to be limited by stalling at the leadlng edge; the position of the stall was determined f’romtuft studies. From the similarity of’the break at maximum lfft for the conditions tested, maximum lift at the highgst flow rate for a Reynolds number of 6.o x 106 seemed also to be limited by stalling at,the leading edge. A few explo story measurements at a Reynolds z “ number of 6.o x 10 indicated that little”further gain In maximun lift could be obtained by increasing the flow rate above C.0120.

The increases in maximum lift coefficient, whloh are made possible by boundary-layer control, are due to the increased slope of the lift curve in the range of high lift coefficient - that is, to the ex~enslon of the strai@t nortion of th6 lift cur-%eto higher angles or attack. As long as separation moves fbrward from . .

the trailing edge without moving forward of the suction slots, boundarv-1.ayercontrol is effectim.

. Drag characteristics of the NACA 653-o18 airfoil section with and without boundary-layer control are presented in figure ~~. The model with the slot at 0~45c se~l~d With “scotch” cellulose tape (fig. 4(b)) approximates the plain airfoil, because transition on the NACA 65 -018 airfoil section normally occurs at approximate y 0.45c.

In the regton in whioh lift coeffi.cfents are lower than maximunland correspondhgly less air flow 1s required, It Is thought that pitching moments approximating those of the plaln alrfoll may be reallzed.

The variation of the bo~dary-layer shape parameter H and the momentum thickness e/o over the upper surface of the airfoil at maximum lift is shown in f’lgure 8. me shape parameter hes an average value of 1.5 and at no point approaches the value of 2.6, at whloh separation was fot~d to be imminent in the analysfs of referenCe 3.

A discontinuity In H is found just downstream of the slot at 0.75c. The boundary-layer profile at this point indicated that some tnter.ference effects from the slot were present.

CONCLUSIONS ~ NACA 653-c18 airfoil section equlnped with slots for boundary-layer control was tested in the Langley two-dimensional low-turbulence and Langley two- ressure tunnels at Reynolds dimensional low-turbulence g nLm?+~.~s of 1.9 and 6.o x lC . Slots were tested at 30 s~:d75 percent and at 45 and 75 percent of the airfoil chord. Approximately twice as much alr w~s remcved through the rear slot as through the forward slot. A comparison of the results of these tests with the results for a plain NACA 653-o18 airfoil section indicated the fullo~fn.qconclusions: 1. A rmximum section lift coefflcien~ rf 1.85 was .

obtained at a Reynolds number of 6.o x lC~ .Llththe NACA 653-018 airfoil section by using boundary-layer control. This lift coefficient was obtained with suction slots at 45 and 75 percent of the airfoil ohord. The low-drag characteristics of this airfoil sect:m co’ald be realized with this arrangement when the clobs we~e net operating by covering them with flush-tJpe doors.
