ro~~DRD This document presents the results of a contract study perfo::med for the National Aeronautics and Space Mninistration (NASA) by tre Douglas ~..iLcraft Comr~ny, McDonnell Douglas Corporation. This work was part of Phase I of the Energy Efficient Transport (EET) project of the Aircraft Energy Efficiency (ACEE) program. Specifically, the study was one task in the contract Selected Advanced Aerodynamic and Active Control Concepts I:evelopnent. Tte activity included tre design and testing of a low-speed, hlgh lift wind tunnel maCel incorp::>rating a high aspect ratio supeLcritical wing and advanced high lift system. The model included variable c<lmber Krueger and slat leading edge devices, and tWO-SEgment and single-slot flap configurations. Optimization of these components, as well as effects of nucelles and pylons, landing gear, aileron, spoilers, and horizontal tail were studied experiIrentally.

~ Ackno\vledgements for their support and gUldance are given to the NASA technical monitor for tie contract, Mr. D.L. l-1aiden of the Energy Efficient Transport Project Office at the Langley Research Center and Mr. J.~.

Tulinius, tre on-site NASA representative; also to Dr. R.T. Nhitcomr Qf the Langley Research Center for his concept of tre supercritical wing.

Acknowledg2rnents are also given to tre director and staff of the NASA Ames and Langley Research Centers, at which facilities tre test prograrr.s were cooducted. Tre cooperation and discussions concerning high lift development for high aspect ratio supercri tical wings of rlr. R.J. r-iargason and H.L.

liorgan of tre NASA Langley STAn Low-Speed Aerodynamics Branch was greatly

awreciated.

SUNllARY This report presents tre results of tre design, evaluation, and \lind-tunnel testing of a low-speed high-lift model of a fuel-efficient advanced technology aircraft. This aircraft, derived from detalled system studies for a medium-range wide-body transport, incoqX)rated an advanced technology high-lift system. The results presented include: design trade studies, ,

design and analysis techniques, and results and analysis of tre wind tunnel

data. TOO experimental results included tre first low-speed l-u.gh Reynold5 numbe.: \o/ind tunnel test for such an advanced transport. Experirrental data 1ndude tre effects on thf: low-speed aerodynamic characteristics of slat and vdrlable camber l<rue'Jet (VCKj leading-edge devices, two-segment and slngle-slot tralling-edge flaps, nacelles, pylons, alleron, spollers, hor! zontal tail, and land1ng gear. !loth 1i.1ch and Reynolds number effects 'dere also studied for selected configurations •

)' slgnificant improvement over tre previous gemration aircraft values. Tre slat leading edge device achieved maximum lift and lift-to-drag ratios superior to the VCK. Pitching moment trends for the va< were superior to tho~ obtaimd with tle slat.

From an optimization standpoint, results of the experimental program indicated the leading edge compomnts were more performance sensitive than the trailing edge devices. EXferinental data cbtaimd for the leading edge device retracted configuration indicated the leading edge device was of crucial importance to the attairarent of large maximum lift values. Without tle leading edge device, only srrall gains in maxUnum lift coeffici~nt could be obtaimd with the trailing edge flaps. As eXfected, tle two-~gment flap was superior in rraximum lift ccefficient and flap lift increment. Trimmed polar comparisons indicated equivalent lift-to-drag envelopes for the takeoff flap settings. For equivalent values of approach speed, the Ilft-to-drag ratio for the two-segment flap was superior to the

,)

corresponding single-slot flap value.

Aileron studies indicated that, for all flap settings, mgative deflections (trailing-edge-up) were more effective than positive (trailing-edge-down) deflections. The effect of spoiler deflection on roll characteristics indicated improved effectiveness as the flap deflection was increased.

Symmetrical spoiler deflections, for takeoff and landing flap deflection, showed tle spoilers to be very effective in reducing lift and increasing drag. The drag for the landing gear was essentially the same for the takeoff and landing configurations. The lanr.ing gear caused a slight reduction in maxllnum lift ccefficient for the landing configuration.

Comparisons of experUnental data with estimated values were generally in good agreement, lending confidence to the results of the trade studies.

AnalysiS of too data has highlighted areas where continued efforts could result in further improverrents. Trese areas include lift-to-drag ratio for takeoff configurations, pitching moment for the high lift configurations, and ground-effect characteristics. Specific test items are suggested for this continued c1eveloprent.

preLnUNARY TRAIE sruoIES BackgrOtUld At the time the NASA Aircraft Erergy Efficient Transport program (ACEE) and lts Energy-Efficient Transport (EET) component was initiated, the Douglas t Aircraft Company \-las studying the DC-X-200, a 200-passenger, wide-body, medium-range transport. Tru environment in which these studies \'lere being made included rapid inflation, concern over escalating fuel prices and decreasing availability, increasingly stringent noise regulations, and deregulation of the airlire inoostry by government. The influences of these factors on the re\'J design were: 1. Due to increared costs of prorucing re\-l aircraft, advanced technolo- gies would be required to obtain, from the standpoint of economics, performance superior to older, less expensive designs.

2. The rapidly esc.."llatwg fuel pnces and uncertaln availability

J

required that fuel-efficient vehicles would be required rather than thore exhibiting increased speed.

3. Greater aerodynamic p:L E :!1Tlance in terms of la-l-speed lift/drag \-Iould be required to supplement engire technology in meeting rew noise requirements.

4. Improved route flexibility througil better takeoff and landing perforrrance would be required to weet the potentlal government deregulation of the airlire inrustry.

AS a result of these conslderations the DC-X-200 fam~ly \-/as configured to employ a high-aspect-ratio supercritical ,·ling (Reference 1), and incorporated an advanced high lift system. The configuration also employed relaxed static stabllity (RSS) to further improve Lhe fuel efficiency and economlCS (Reference 2). In this report, a particular version of this family of aircraft (DC-X-200 nodel D969N-21) was selected for la-l-speed

exper:unental studies and is referred to as tre Advanced Commercial Aircraft

) (ACA) 1n other portions of this report. Other technology development programs related to advanced transports are currently being studied at Douglas under the ACEE program and are reported in Reference 3.

Fundamentally, the supercritical airfoil can be used to generate qreater lift for a given thickness and drag than a conventional airfoil. Due to the emphasis on fuel-efficiency and direct operating cost (DOC), the manner in t/hich the added benefits of supercritical airfoil technology have been utilized are, basically, to increase ~ing-thickness-to-chord ratio and ast:ect ratio. '!be increase in thickness-to-chord ratio results in a more efficient wing structuraJ system, which, in turn, offsets the weiqht of the higher aspect ratio. Within these ground rules, however, many other design variables must be considered, which, almost without exception, have both favorable and unfavorable aspects when considering the total aircraft design. To introduce the differences in low-speed characteristics resulting fran this awlication of supercritical airfOl.l technology, Figure 1 presents a comparison of the Im'l-speed performance of a current \>lide body trans{X)rt and one of the advanced configurations of the design studies. The former aircraft incor{X)rated a conventional wing with an aspect ratio of 6.8, and a high lift system canposed of a slat and vane-flap canponents.

composed of a variable camber Krueqer (VCR) and large-chord, high-extension, t\vo-segrrent, flap system. This combination represents the upper bound in lm'l-speed performance for the conf igurations studies and shO\o/s that significant improverrents are predicted for the advanced configuration.

,I High S}:eed \,1ing Parameters Naturally, the p3rameters related to the hiqh-~ed design problem are very siqnificant for this class of aircraft and closely affect the low-speed characterisitcs. The high sreen design and wind tunnel development of the high aspect ratio supercritical ".,in'1 develop!1ent is reported in Reference 1.

'i'he most important Oesigrl considerations fran this reference are qiven belO\v.

Spanwise Distribution of Lift r or SWn Loading ]I~thouCJh an elliptj cal span loading offers the 1m/est induced drag, the optlmum loadlnll, considering the comb1.ned aerodynamic and structural characteristl.cs, is u~ually one "hich has s~ degree of \,rashout. Since, at

J

cruise 11ach number, the initial sep3ration \'lhich t.:letf'rntines buffet unset Ilsual]" occurs on the outboard \Jing JX:Inel, it 1S undesirable tc a110\.1 the local velocitles in thlS region tC"o tecome too high. T11l.nJllng the outboard \ling can alleviate this _ J. :.I3tlon, but at the expense of a penalty 1.n ~lelght. In the final analysis the choice of span leading is a function of not only induced drag but also \·linCj "'leight, and lou-speed and hl.gh-speed clean wing separation characteristics (Le., stall progression and buffet boundary) • SpanW1se Distributlon of Tbickness For the same upper surface pressure distribution, modifications in the thickress result In cbanges to the sect1.on lift values. The decisions on the distribution of lift must be made in conjunction with the decisions on thickress. On the inbcard wing the thickress near the root is affected by such considerations as the depth required for the landing gear, and the volume needed for fue 1. In additlon, the cholce of the spanwi se dlstrlbution of thlckness considers not only the combination of lift and thickress required to meet the cruise performance, but also the impact of the distribution on lo\'/-speed performance in both the clean and high lift

/ modes. Since, for a glven planform, tte weight of tte wing box is largely a functlon of the lift and the thickress-to-chord ratio, tre aerodynamic and weight characteristics must be considered in lUlison before a £inal decislon can re reacred.

Airfoll Characteristics The choice of chordwire and spanwire airfoil characteristics introdlces many other variables. For the basic outboard airfoil, decisions must be made regarding the leading edge radius and the amount of aft camber. Blunt leading edges are desirable from tte standfX)int of supercritical development at cruise, and maximum lift at low sveeds. '!bey are unoosirable from the standpoint of drag creep and, in some cases, lift loss ~t stall for low speed conditlons. The latter trend can result from the rapid change in curvature rear tre leading edge associated with a large nose radius and a lack of nose chamber. Large adverre pressure gradients aft of the suctlOn peak can induce a rapid change fran a trailing edge reparation to a leading edge separation. Highly aft-cambered airfoils are desirable from the

)

standpoint of achieving good cruise characteristics at high 11ft coefficients, but they have high regative pitclllng marents which, for some configurations, can result in excessively high trim drag. LO\'l 11lt coefficient (dive) characteristics at very high Nach nu:mt::ers can also be urecceptable with too much aft camber, particularly where outboard lateral control devices are used. The spanwise distribution of aft camber also presents a desiCJT1 challenge as it is difficult to carry a large amount (f lift aft on the chord near the root and, at the same time, counteract the Loot effect to maintain satisfactory inboard isobar characteristics.

Fact~rs Influencing Selection of High Lift Systems If the aircraft's wing area is sized by a low speed requirement, for example, approach speed, the wing area may vary by hundreds of square feet eependinq on the utilization of simple or advanced high lift systems. If an advanced high lift system is utilized, the resulting wing area can he relatively smaller and a resulting weight advantag':! should be achieved.

1'he 10\'1 speed characteristics are also influenced by the planform effects of

'Ihis re::;ults in a need for an advanced inboa rd high lift flap system. 'Ihe large trailing edge ey.tension unE\oJeeps a significant portion of the inboard \-/ing. This makes the job of the high-speed designer :iore difficult in terms of eliminating root effect, and maintaimnq S'lJeep effectbteress. One method of achieving proper root characteristics ilt hiqh speen IInner these conditions is to increase the leadinq edge sucep in this area.

In tOO low speed area, the resulting requirements include takeoff and landing field lengths, and in some cases a specified approach speed for the design mission. Naturally, for a given class of transport aircraft, not all airlines have similar requl.rements concerning low speed performance. 'Ibis aeXls another dimension to the selection of the high lift system in that acceptable low speed performance must be achieved for as many potential airline custaners as possl.ble.

'!be VCR was chosen as the primary leading edge device based on these results and previous experimental two-dimensional wind tunnel programs for both supercriUcal and conventional airfoil geanetries. "j,llese tests had indicated that the VCR had the potential of superior C~x, and also drag levels approaching that of the slat. Figure 15 shows the VCR configuration of the Douglas-funded mechanical system studies for the retracted and extended positions. This contour-changing surface, was supported by the front spar and stowed in the 10\'ler leading edge of the \1ing, formed the lower surface of the leading edge prior to deployment. It extended fran near the fuselage side to the wing tip, interrupted only in the area near the pylon. When the VCR was deployed, its contour was modified by a Irechanical linkage during the actuation sequence so that the desired shape was attained when the surface was fully extended. Various rrethods of VCR drive systems were evaluated and included: open torque tube, closed loop torque tube, cable drive, and hydraulic actuators. For the

The inboard and outboard tralling edge flaps are mounted on double four-bar linkages which are actuated by redundant torque tubes (closed loop) extending from the center of the aircraft. Dual hydrualic motors, powered by separate hydraulic systems, drive tie torque tubes, and one system alone

~

can operate the flaps at a recllccd rate. Tie advantages of this system were similar to those of too VO< system. A linkage supported single-slot flap system was selected for too secondary-trail1ng-edge high lift configuration.

TOO experimental evaluation of this system could be accomplished with very little additional expense by retracting the aft flap of the t\'lo-segment configuratlOn.

Final Configuration Studies The Douglas Eunoed system studies, which resulted in the configuration selected for the wind tunnel program, are presented in this section.

t'a turally, the high speed requirements determined the primary design variables for the cruise winq. Since the cruise wing geometry was the starting point for the high lift system design, and directly imp:lcted the low Sf€ed characteristics, the selection of the more basic parameters are

reviewed (see also Reference 1). Also presented is tre wing sizing for the

configuration with the selected high lift system and comparisons of estimated performance of the current configuration and other existing

)

transports to illustrate too gains obtained by use of tre application of the

odvanced technologies. P-.s stated previously, the basic configuration was a

~

medium range wide-body transport capable of replacing the previous generation of narrow-body aircraft. The design goals for this aircraft relative to today's transports were improved economics, 10\'ler fuel consumption, reduced noise and explnded cargo cap;lbility. ~sign emphasis \las placed on employing advanced technologies that improved aircraft ~ operational economics. The principal advanced technology incorporated in this design was a hiqh a3pect ratio supercritical wing; other advanced technologies inCluded an advanced high lift system consistinq of VCJ< and tHo-segrcent flaps, longitudinal stability augmentation, use of composite structure for selected components, a short core-cowl nacelle for the \"inq mounted engires, and significant advances in digital electronic systems.

The DC-X-20n nodel 0969n-21 was designed for one-stop transcontinental range capability \-lith inherent gro\-lth potential for nonstop transcontinental flight, or a significant increase in car:acit'l. '!he required confiquration perfornance included: Imler fuel consumption per seat-Mile thar, any current turbofan pmlered transport, excellent hotihigh ai rfield performan~, noise

Early in the system studies, cruise r\:lch numbers of 0.711 (H = .7P.) and ~, =

0.80 were chosen, the former to favor fu~l burned, and the latter for minimum direct operating cost. Figure 18 illustrates the variation of several of the important operational parameters wit:h cruise r1ach number.

Because of the emphasis on econanics and fuel efficiency, the sUJ:ercritical airfoil technology was applied to the DC-X-200 to increase .,ling thickness while still achieving some benefits in buffet boundary. The latter js translated into cruise lift. Figure 24 illustrates these trends. The resulting wing thickness provides a structural weight advantage and the airfoil shape results in an increase in takeoff and landing CLMAX. Part of the weight reduction has reen utilized to increase the wing aspect ratio in order to improve aerodynamic efficiency. Figure 25 shows a nine-perCent improvezrent in the cruise ratio LID \-Ihen ca11Iared to the OC-lO-IO.

For the 10\-1 ~d characteristics, the \-ling and high lift system provide a high landinq CL C.apabIlity \·lith a maximum flap deflection of only 10 MAX degrees. The small required flap deflection at landing results in a

significant improver.ent (70 percent) in the approoch LID over the canIarahle

values for the DC-lO-lO (see Figure 26). The takeoff LID is improved 30 percent and tt.e maximum lift coefficient i'-j int::eased by 17 r-ercent.

HIGH LIFT AEmDYN.~:C IESIGN PIDCESS General Design Constraints The aerodynamic design pr~ss for the high lift system is quite canplex and involves the interaction of reany disciplines. A primary design constraint is, of course, the requirement of high lift system can};atibility \-lith the cruise wing shaFe and structure. 'Ibis canPltibility is influenced directly by the spanwise variation of the available chord ratio for the high lift system canponents, as well as the shape of specific portions of these high lift devices.

Figure 35 illustrates the regions determined by the cruise configuration and those surfaces which are at the discretion of the high lift designer.

Further, these latter surfaces are also influenced by structural considerations. For example, in Figure 35 the slat high lift device and its associated wing under slat surface (~mSS) are influenced by local chord

"J

constraints and slat trailinq edge thickness and closure angle. l\ W'K concept allows more aerodynamic freenom for the basic shape definition resulting in increased 11ft cap:ibility. Other factors \-1hich can influence the leading edge device <.E:rorl'lnamic definition include front sr:er location, anti-icing ducting requirements, actuation system, fuel, and hydraulic line space requirements.

r..;i{ 2 OF F':;C The trailing edge high lift system is influenced by rear spar location, the spoiler actuation system, the spoiler trailing edge chordwise position, and the spoiler closure angle and thickness. Relaxed static stability adversely affects the inboard flap chord, due to the further aft placement of the landing gear and related structure. In addition, due to lateral stability and control requirements, spoiler chord and sFan as well as aileron location, influence the trailing edge flap definition.

ExP'!rirrental Data Rase An extensive experimental t\'1o-dimensional data base for aerodynamic characteristics of supercritical airfoil high lift systems had been generated by previous Douglas funded studies. This data base included: pffects of conventional and supercritical airfoil sections: thickness ratio: slat and VCR leading edge devices, single-slot, two-segment, and triple-slotted trailing edge devices, and optimization of the position and dr-flection of these systems. Detailed wake and boundary layer measurements for selected configurations han also been generated to prc1vide a more fun~ntal understanding of supercrltical airfoil high lift systems.

Also shown are the model target values. At each leading-edge device deflection,plots such as trese were used to evaluate tre I::asic position (gap and overhang) of the VCK or slat. Once a basic position was established, the results of the position study as calculated by the method of Figure 37, and the 2-D experimental position trends, were used to determine the alternate grid positions.

Sbape Definition for Leading and Trailing Elements The basic shape for the VCK was defined by a previously tested two-dimensional configuration. Slat and WUSS shapes were defined by aWlication of the MrillAN1 program with systematic variations in WUSS chord, camber, and nose radius at a nominal slat position and deflection. USing ~ .:;:::::- the procedure of Figure 37, a \iUSS shape was chosen for the defining stations.

The MADAru1 program was also used to defire the two-se900nt flap and flaperon . shap:s at the airfoil defining stations on the wing. Within the structural

,~constraints previousl~ discussed, flap nose radius and camber were varied

and the resulting pressure distributions and separation locations were

Figure 42 illustrates the high lift systems for the wind tunnel tests. The primary leading edge configuration was a VCK flap. While the basic confiquratio~ incorporated independent inboard and outboard segments, additional pieces were fabricated such that a continuous full span VCK e~tent was possible (i.e., sealed at the fuselage side and continuous across the engine pylon). Associated with this VCK were cutouts in the lower surface of the wing (VCR wells) representing the absenoe of a continuous lower surface \-lhen the VCR was deployed.

The secondary configuration for the leading edge was a slat. '!his device incorporated a sealed configuration over the engire pylon, but a gap at the fuselage side. Positioning of the inboard and outboard segments was accanplished inde~ndently. Associated with the slat \-las a revised leading edge contour (l'lUSS).

Por the trailing edge high lift system, the primary configuration was an inboard and outboard two-seg:rent flap. Between trese two flaps was a device

)

called a flaperon, which was essentially a single-slotted flap, that was articulated in the same manner as the main flap for the high lift conditions, but incorporated a high-speed short chord aileron in the retracted, or cruise configuration. At too high lift condition, the aileron was locked in an undeflected position. This permitted a contirn.Ious flap span of sore SO percent, resulting in an improved span loading for high lift conditions.

As Figure 42 shows, the secondary trailing edge configuration was a single-slot flap. On the model this configuration was obtained by simply stowing the aft flap into the main flap. 'lbe resulting configuration was an SO-percent span single-slot trailing edge flap.

In order to optimize the high lift geometry, both the leading and trailing edge devices incoq::orated bracketry for changing deflection and position.

The model also incorpJrated an aileron (left wing parel only), spoilers, and remote-drive horizontal stabilizer deflection capability. TOO wing and high lift syste~s were also instrumented with static pressure orifices at the five stall'Nise stations. Other model canporents included nacelles, pylons,

)

landing gear, and a cruise wing trailing edge (i.e., flap:; retracted).

dimensions, with the lower surface of the spoiler segments modified to obtain the standard minimum crailing edge thickness of 0.0127 em (0.005 in.)radius, while maintaining the theoretical planform trailing edge locatlon for flap rigging purposes. The spoiler planform diagram is presented as part of Figure 43.

The definitions of gap, overhang (O.H.), and deflection used to position the leading edge high lift devices are illustrated in Figure 48. Figure 48 also shows the method of attachment to the WUSS and clean leading edge (for the slat and VCK devices respectively). As indicated for the VCK, bolts attached the device to an angle bracket and the bracket was positioned relative to too wing by nl~ans of sp:1cers (to adjust the gap) and pin holes through the bracket into the wing for overhang positioning. An additional set of bolts fastered the bracket to the wing. Each deflsction angle had separate brackets.

A full span wing leading edge slat (LIA,li2A) with a seal at the pylon was tested. Positioning capability included three alternate positions for each of two deflection angles. The slat was fabricated in two parts, with the

common bomldary at station Xw = 36.367 em (12.123 in). The inboard and

The horizontal stabilizer incorporated a remote drive and dual position potentiometers for tail incidence determination during a run.

MoCel Installatioo TOO model was installed in the NASA hIes 12-Foot Pressure Wind Tunnel on the tandem support system shown in Figure 59. 'Ihe mcxEl was pivoted about the main strut pivot point and was pcMered by the aft pitch strut. The entire strut system was nOD-rretric, (i.e., air loods on the strut arc not sensed by tre balance). 'Ihe struts entered the fuselage as far aft as practical to minimize the aerodynamic interference effects on the mcxEl.

TOO saJre support system "las utilized during the NASA Langley V/S'lOL test program. It was adapted to the existing V/S'lOL tunnel structure and extensions for the main, and pitch struts were added to the basic tandem strut system. The extensions permitted the model to be located rear the vertical position of the tunnel centerlire (see Figure 60).

EY.F£RIMENTAL reSUL'lS AND ANALYSIS Test Plan and Facilities Two wind tunnel tests were conducted between 30 November 1978 and 29 November 1979, to aid in the evaluation of the la.-l speed charactenstlcs of a high aspect ratio supercritical wing transport configuration. In !"loth tests tre conflguration \o1aS tte D-969N-21 wide-body transport with the ~J3B wlng and high lift system.

The first test (LB-486A) was conructed at the NASA limes Re~arch Centcr In the 12-Foot Pressure Wind Tunrel from 30 November 1978 throuqh 26 January 1979. Data for various l-1ach and Reynolds numbers were obtaired cilring this test for selected configuratl.ons. A majority of the configurations tested were evaluated at a high Reynolds number conditloo. Figure 61 presents the configurations evaluated wring tre Ames wind tunrel program.

*norma1 test condition The Ames 12-foot wind tunnel test section has a circular cross-section of 3.65m (12 ft) diarreter. Flat areas on floor, ceiling, and both sides reduce this dimension to 11.3 feet. The Langley V/S'lOL wind tunnel has a test section height and width of 4.42m (14.50 ft) and 6.63m (21.75 ft). The model was mounted on a tandem strut system and tested through a maximum 0 0 angle of attack range of -6 to +30 • For configurations without a leading edge deVIce (i.e., crUIse wing), this angle of attack ran~ was rewced.

The model was always tested with 0 sideslip.

Fluorescent mini-tufts (Reference 7) were used in both wind tUIlllel tests for flow VIsualization of the various high lift configurations. This technique uses a very fire Sfecially treated mooofilament thread which, wren struck by filtered ultraviolet light and photographed with appropriate filters, becomes readily visible on the photographic regative. '1l2 thread, being of extrerrely small di.arreter, produces little disturbance to the flow.

Unless otherwise noted, tOO configurations were evaluated w~th tOO nacelles, pylons, and nacelle strakes attached, and the horizontal tail off. The latter permitted the evaluation of high lift cornp:ment inr:rements In 11ft and drag. Tail-on characteristics were obtained for a selected number of configurations representing the better configurat~ons resulting from the leading and trailing edge device optimization studies. Unless landing ljear 1ncrements were being obtained, the cruise and takeoff configurations rad the landing gear removed, and the landing configuration had the gear attached. r'iini-tufts were attached to tOO right wing panel [or most of the configurations tested.

Thc first test program started with the cruise wing configurations. This \lIas follCMed by t.re VCK leading edge device study at nominal landing and takeoff flap defl. ..... llons. 'Ire two-regment and single-slot flap optimization with tIle VCK leading edge device was ~valuated next. Clean lead1ng (·.tge characterist ics al the optlmized flap positions were then evaluated, dnd \'/ere follONed by t.re slat study at the previously deflned flap positions.

Clean trailin9 ~dge char;lctenstics tOL the optim1zed va~ and slclt lXlSl.tions

~

were also obta~ned. Tall-on, U;lch m.unber, Reynolds number, nacE:lle/Pl"lon, and a1leron effects \,Are also obtaired as the awropnate configuration was being evaluated.

\'1ind 'l\mnel Test !<esul ts and AralYS1S Due to thc complex nomenclature assoclated wIth the high lifL

configurat lons, plotted data haVE: I::een identified bJ a smrmary code (see S1

through S5 in Table 2). In addition, a leading edge grid posit1on and deflectlOn for the 1nboard and outboard segments has been identified for the high 11ft configurdtions. For example, 15D/25D notation for the slat, slgmfies that thE: inboard slat deflection is 15 and the gnd position is AD, and for the outboard slat, the deflection ~s 25 and the grid peSl t10n is AD. Table 1\ shows the gap and O.H. to I::e 2.25 percent and -2.0 percent for both the inboard and outboard slat. Similar nOlrenclature has been used for the va< (~.e., 45E/45G).

An example of the two-segment flap deflection, gap, and overhang nanenciature used in tre plotted results is 25K/10B. The slash in this case denotes a main flap/aft flap relationship. The example signifies a 25 deflection for the main flap at position AK and an aft flap deflection of 10 at position B. Tables 6 and 7 indicate an outbrerd gap and O.H. of 2.5 percent and 0 percent for the main flap and 0.5 and 1.5 percent gap and overhang for the aft flap.

The single-slot flap configuration is denoted by a zero follaoling the slash (i.e., 25K/0). By use of the configuration summary code, leading and trailing edge nomenclature, and the tables, the specific configurations in the plotted data can be obtaired.

Test data presented in the following sect:ions are without strut tare corrections. TOO relatj:"e perfornance was determined in this fashion, and selected data and final optimized configuration data were strut-tare corrected. The latter is presented in the Spoiler Deflection Effects and Summary of High Lift Characteristics sections. Strut tare corrections were

'~)

based on an experiIrental evaluation of strut tares for a previous transport configuration, the technique being discussed in Reference 6.

~ possible test variables and high llft configurations were quite numerous for this wind tunnel model. Table 9 presents a figure index for the high lift configurations and test conditions presented in this section.

Cruise Wing The initial configuration tested was the cruire wing-body with the nacelles and pylons removed. Figure 62 illustrates this configuration installed in the NASA Ames 12-Foot Pressure Wind Tunnel. Also ShCMIl in the photograph is the tandem strut support system, and the va< filler blocks (installed in the lower surface of the leading edge). The basic high Reynolds number characteristics (lift, pitching manent, and LID) for the wing-bcdy are shown ~n Figure 63 (see Run 22). Figure 63 indicates that CLMlU{ of 1.513 was obtaired at an angle of attack of 12.57 • The lift coefficient at zero

degrees angle of attack was 0.4. The LlDMAx for this configuration was 20.4

and at 1.2 Vs the LID was 19.45.

FIGURE 62. CRUISE WING CONFIGURATION IN THE AMES 12-FOOT PRESSURE WIND TUNNEL (NACELLES AND PYLON OFF) The basic wing-body is seen to have an initial outboard stall of significant proportions in terms of the lift loss and the small angle of attack range over which this phenomenon occurs. The result of this trend is a significant reduction in wing-body stability after. stall (Figure 63). Also presented in Figure 63 is a comparison of the aerodynamic characteristics with and without tufts. Good agreement in the lift and pitching moment through CL~mx is shown. Some differences are noted in these quantities after CLM1\X, but they are relatively small. The draq with the tufts on (Run lR) is seen to be lower in Figure 63 by 10 to 20 drag counts depending on the eLI and this results in higher L/D values (Figures 63). Evaluation of the pressure data comparinq Runs lB and 22 did not indicate a significant bnprovement in trailing edge pressure recovery.

'rhe cruise wing-body configuration, with the N3 wing, had previously been tested in the Ames Research Center II-Foot Transonic Wind Tunnel. This model was a four-percent scale model and was sting-mounted. The current data was corrected for strut tares and compared with the high-speed experimental data. Various lift p;lrarneters are canp;lred in Figure 64. Good agreement with the high speed data is indicated for the lift quantities shown in Figure 64. The lift and drag c!re canp!red in Figure 65 for ~tlch numbers of 0.2 and 0.5. The lift variation shown in Figure 65 shows the expected increase in high-speed lift curve sloJ;e, and also mdicates that the CLr1AX at 0.5 ~tlch number is influenced by compressibility effects not apparent in the Im-1-speed data. The LB-486A Reynolds number based on the HAC was very similar to the high speed test condition at a Mach number of 0.50 and is shown in Figure 65. Good agreement in the drag is obtained for the intermediate CL range. Canpressibility effects in the high-speed data are noted for CL values above 0.6. Pitching manent canp;lrisons were rna~ difficult by the differences in geometry (boat-tailed configuration versus sting-mounted). Direct comparison of pitching manents indicated that for

J

./ the intermediate CL ranqe, the 10\1-~d values were 0.03 more positive than the high-speed data.

~) Figure 68 shows the variation of sectional lift, obtained from an lnteqration of the pressures, for the five pressure rows. 'nle large, rapid lift loss at stall for the 50-, 72.5-, and 90-percent stations is noteworthy. Figure 69 presents the spanwise variation of sectional hft.

0 0 Significant variation in rolling manent for angle3 of attack 1 or 2 above aCL MAX indicated some asymmetry in the stall pattern. Rolling manent incremental values were negative, indicating premature left winq panel stall. Flow syrnrretry \-laS regained at higher anqles of attack.

The resie winq-body was also tested at a Reynolds number of Rtlr!AC = 1.13xl0

and a f.1ach nUMber of 0.20 (atmospheric conditions for the hles facility) • 'T'he results are presented in Fiqures 70 through 72. A. canpuison of Figures 63 and 70 sho\-Is that the CL~1AX is reduced frm 1.51 to ] .13, the reqnitllde of the post ~tall lift loss is rlecreasen, and a posi t1ve Cm shift of anproximately 0.02 is rlpparent for angles of attack prior to stall. The Cl'C1r-lA.,{ has been reduced fror.1 1?S7° to ft.43°, and the confiquratlon stllJ exhibits the same pitch variat10n for the anqles Just after 0 C'LHAh. The

:)

(I';D)~1AX is reduced from 20.4 to 15.3 by the decrease in ne~'nolds number.

Fiqure 71 presents tre sectional lift c:haracterirltlCS for Run ~l. Comparinq F1gures 6R and 71 shows the sect lanaI lift values obtained for the 2(l-~rcent spm station are L. ,. same. Significantly lower values of c£f.~AX \'ere obtained for the remaining stations. The 30-r:ercent spln station for the 1~1 Reynolds number has a c1rw{ of 1.2 and a gradual stall followed hy a moderate lift loss. This is different than the high Reynolds number trend.

The outboard stations (50-, 72.5-, and 90-~rcent) show the rapid lift losn (i.e., leading edqe type separation) and lose almost half of their lift by 2 after their cIMl\X. Clearly the outboard trends are similar to the high P.eynolns number data, but occur at a lor.-ler angle of attack.

It is also notetoTorthy that, at large anqles past CLMl\X, the cl values tend to reach similar values. A chanqe in the type of stall (Le., from a leading edge to a trailing edge type separation) for the flight condition tolould alleVlate these adverse high angle-of-attack outboard \-ling parel lift characteristics. The large increase in the angle of attack for outboard \.,ing pane] stall, due to an increase in Reynolds mnnber, implies that at fliqht conditions the outboard [.anel may stall later than the inboard tolinq.

It should be noted that the clMAX values at the 20-percent station did not change significantly with R€!ynolds number. '!he 30-{:ercent station O'CLMAX did increase. The evaluation of the low speed supercritical airfoil stalling phe~non at Reynolds nmnt::er awrooching flight conditions is thus a critical area of technology development.

It is pertinent to note that v13B was one of the earlier wing geanetries evaluated in the high speed development. This wing was characterized by significantly greater outboard loading than the finalized designs (see ReferenQ: 5). Future wings to be evaluated in the high speed regime have reduced outboard loadings which should alleviate the imbalance between the ) outboard and inboard angles of attack for stall.

Significantly lower values of minimum pressure coefficient (Cpt.tIN) \~re indicated for the ICMer Reynolds number test condition. Figure 72 presents a comparison of the CPmN spanwise variation for the high and 10\,1 P.eynolds number condition. The differences are greatest at the 72.S-percent span station.

Nacelle/Pylon Effect on Cruise Wing. - The effects of nacelles, pylons, and nacelle strakes are shown in Figure 73. Addition of the nacelles and pylons (Run 29) resulted in essentially the same CLMAX and lift v~riation after CLl-we as the basic wing-body (Run 22). The pitching moment indicates an improved stability trend after CLr1AX. Addition of the nacelles is destabilizing prior to CLMAX. The drag increment at 1.2 Vs due to the nacelle/pylon is 0.0060 and the L/D is reduced to 17.7. Rolling moment characteristics Indicate the same trend (left wing stall) as the basic \ling-body, but ''lith slightly different p:ak rolling marent values. AdditJ.on of the nacelle strakes (Run 23) results 1n the same CLHAX, a reduced lift loss and SImilar trends of reducerl stability after eLl-lAX as the wing-body

)

configuration. The drag is slightly larger (0.0005) than Run 29 values near 0.69 CL~mx. The rolling moment trends are similar to the basic wing-body values.

rtIni-tuft photos for the nacelles, pylons, ann strakes attached configuratIon are shown in Figure 74. Changes in local flO\-I angle are f:"ident behind the nacelle/pylon group. COt:lparison with Figure 66 (the cruise wing) indicates the sane outboard separation phenomenon. However, the flO\'1 on the wing surface behlOci the nacelle is attached. Canplementary flow-visualization photos for Run 29 (strakes off) indicated the area behind the nacelle is sep:lrated for the angles of attack larger than Cl'CLl-lAX.

Chordwise pressure distribution plots for the configuration '-lith the nacelles, pylons, and strakes attached are presented in Figure 75. The angles of attack selected \-!ere Cl'CLMAX and higher. At an Q of 13.58 , FRP the 50-percent span station shows a collapse of the suction peak. The correspondinq flow-visualization photo, \olhile indicating some tuft activity near the trailing edge, does not show significant tuft motion near the wing ) midchord reqion.

\l1ng, and the tufts were located on the right wing. It is possible that part of the flow-symretry problem near stall nay be located in this area of

the wing. At aFRP = 13 .58 , the pressure distribution for the 90-r,ercent

span station indicate se'f6rated flow. The tuft photo, however, indicates only moderate trailing edge activity.

Figure 76 prssents the sectional lift values for Run 23. At aFRP = 13.58 , the 50- and 90-r,ercent S'f6nwise positions (left wing) show a lift loss. The lift loss at 90 percent semispan is more than half the c.t :< value. '!he rna 72.5- and 90-r,ercent stations have the sane ~ of lift loss at stall with the nacelles, pylons, and strakes att.'!cheCi. '!he only differences noted are reduced lift at the 30-percent span station (near the nacelle), but no stall, and a reduced lift loss at the 50-r,ercent SIBn station.

Reynolds Nurrber and f:bch Number Effects on Cruise Wing. - This study was performed with the nacelles, pylons, and strakes attached. Figure 77 presents the influence of Reynolds number on the aerodynamic characteristics. The angle of attack for CLMAX and the CLMAX attained

J

decreased with the reduction in Reynolds number. The CLMAX for RN~1AC =

6 6 5.12x10 \-JaS 1.54, and for RNMAC = 1.14xl0 , a CLr1AX of 1.15 was obtained.

lI. positi'!e pitch increrrent after C~ is aPJ;arent. The low Reynolds number data show a pitching moment level shift for most of the angle of attack lange. These data also indi~~te a less rapid buildup of the positive pitching manent increment \-lith angle of attack p:lst acLMAX.

Figure 78 illustrates the low Reynolds number chordwise pressure distributions for angles of attack near, and above CLM1\X. '!be 72-r,ercent

span station suction feak has collapsed at a FRP = 8.420. At 10.42 and

12.44° angle of attack, the 50-, 72-, and 90-r,ercent stations are sep:lrated at the leading edge. Although the Reynolds number has changed the angle of angle of attack for CLMAX and the C1MAx level, the basic trend of outboard stall is still evioont.

Figure 79 presents the influence of !tlch mmi)er on the same configuration.

These data were obtained at %MAC = 2.89xl0 • '!be effect of Mach number is

to decrease CLMAX (CLMAX = 1.43, 1.39, and 1.32 at !tlch = 0.20, 0.26, and

0.32, respectively). Also, the effect of Mach number is to decrease the angle of attack for the outboard stall. At a Mach number of 0.32, the reduced stability shift has already been initiated at 9.5 • The overall shift is more gradual with angle of attack, but the basic pitch trend still remains. !tlximum L/D values are indicated for a !tlch nlBtlber of 0.26.

Figure 80 presents the section lift coefficients for the Mach number of 0.32 (Run 26) Examination of the chordwise pressure distribution plots, indicated leading edge se{Bration at the 50- and 72-~rcent SP:ln stations at an FRP of 10.44 • At 11.46 the three most outboard stations were separated. The outboard lift loss is apparent, as is a reduction in inboard sectional lift curve slope at an FRP of 11.46 • Figure 81 shows the spanwise variation of CPMIN (minimum pressure coefficient) for the l13ch

number tested. Also shCMIl for reference, is the RNftAC = 5.12x10 and Mach

,)

number of 0.20 results (Run 23). CPCRIT for th~ outboard leading edge region is al.,o shown. The corresponding value at a Mach number of 0.20 Clearly, the data obtained at 0.26 and 0.32 ro1ach would be over -16.0.

numbers indicate that the suction peaks are approaching sonic conditions.

Extrapolation of the CPMIN to the next angle of attack, for the outboard sections, would indicate supercritica1 flow. This was not achieved, and raises the possibility of shock-induced separation for these locations.

Cruise Wing with Horizontal Tail. - The horizontal tail-on characteristics for the cruise wing with the nacelles, pylons, strakes, and vertical tail attached is shown in Figure 82. Horizontal tail deflections of 00 , -50, and -100 were evaluated. '!he pitching manent curves indicate pitch-up prior to, or at, CLMAX for the various deflections.

Figure 83 presents the effect of Reynolds number for the tail-on configuration. CLMAX and aCLMAX are reduced at the lower ~ynolds number.

The lift loss after stall at the low Reynolds number is snall. HCM!ver, pitch-up is indicated for both ~ynolds nllnber conditions. '!he nagnitude of the positive pitch increment is larger for the hi~h Reynolds number

condition. The LID at 0.69 CLMAX was reduced from 16.8 to 13.6 by the

decrease in Reynolds number.

In summary, the basic cruise wing achieved a high level of CI.f.!Ax (1.513) and

LID at 1.2 Vs (19.45). Addition of the nacelles, pylons, and strakes

resulted in a neglible change in CLf.wc, a reduced L/D (17.7), and improved

pitch characteristics at high angles of attack. Increasing the Reynoldls number from atmospheric to the high Reynolds number test condition increased

-

the CLlWC significantly (~CLMAX = 0.39). A Mach number increase from 0.20

to 0.32 resulted in a decrease in Ctr.wc of 0.11. Test data for the cruise wing configuration with the horizontal tail indicated tbe low-speed pitch characteristics require improvement. It should be noted that the ongoing high-speed wing developnent for high as};ect ratio supercritical wings has, in fact, altered the SP:ln loading which should inprove the leM-speed stalling

VCR Configuration

,)

Both the VCK and slat were evalt.ated during the test program. 'Ibe VCr< was evaluated first with nominal two-segment landing and takeoff flap deflections. Before the VCK position was optimized an extension to the spoiler trailing edge in the region of the flaperon was required at the landing flap deflection. '!be existing spoiler length, and the resulting gap and overhang (O.H.) in this region, resulted in large flap sepuation. Only the most conservative flap grid position (large positive O.H. and small gap)

\-laS unseparated. '!be basic spoiler was extended at Xw of 36.362 em (14.3178

in) by 0.29 an (0.11 in). 'Ibis trailing edge extension was &creased to 0.0

an at Xw of 43.411 cm (17.091 in) and Xw of 14.800 em (5.828 in). This

resulted in a m~re positive O.H. of 1.29 percent at Xw of 36.362 an (14.3178

in). 'Jlle gap was also changed and, for flap position FlAM a reduction of 0.3 percent resulted at the saI:le wing station. '1be remain&r of the test was conducted wit.'1 this revised inboard spoiler configuration (flA,f2A).

Figure 84 illustrates the VCr< with two-segment flap configuration installed in the liles l2-Foot Pressure Wind Tunnel. Before proceeding with the VCK optimization the effects due to the removal of the VCr< filler blocks \Yere evaluated. '!be results indicated minor changes in lift, drag, and pitching moment. The remainder of the VCK runs \-Jere accanplished with the VCK filler

Reynolds Number Effects on VCK with Two-Segment Flap (TaU-0Hl. - The influence of Reynolds number variation on the longitudinal aerodynamic characteristics with two-segment landing and takeoff flaps is shown in Fiqure 110 and 111. A sizable shift in pitching moment is indicated for the landing and takeoff flap configurations at the lowest Reynolds number condition. The basic trend of the pitching marent at angles of attack near stall is not significantly changed by the reduction in Reynolds nt.mlber. A reduction in CLr.W{ of 0.16 for the flap deflections is also shown in Figures 110 and 111.

VCR with 'l'wo=Segm:mt Flaps and Horizojltal tail. - Figures 112 to 114 present the characteristics of the VCK wi th two-segment landing and takeoff flaps with the horizontal tail, and the effect of Reynolds number.

Characteristics shown in Figure 112 indicate nose down pitching moment for the -150 and -50 horizontal incidences near CL~1AX. Post stall pitch

,)

characteristics a re again influenced by the tip seraration, and a reduction in stability is indicated at the highest angles.

FigurE: 113 shows, for the VCR \·lith t\'lo-segrrent landinq flaps, a change 1n

P..eynolds ntnnber (Rr-1r1Ac = 5.1.~ .. ;q6 to RNr'1AC = l.l4xl06) does not alter the

basic character of the pitching marent trends.

Single-Slot Flap Optimization. - Results of the optimiza tion of this trailing e~ge device were presenten in Figures 115 through lIB for flap deflections of 35 0 , 25 0 , 150, and 50. The pitch trends for each flap deflection were similar for the various grid positions. As the flap deflection was reduced, more favorable pitch charasteristics after CLr1AX were obtained. Positions selected from this study were: 25K/O, l5G/O, and 5A/D (see tata SllJ'm'ary Section ••• for comparisons ,lith two-segment flap system) • Inboard VCR 8ffects. - The inboard VCR was removed and the ch~nges in the longitudinal aerodynamic characteristics G;re shown in Figure 119. A CLr1AX reduction of n.46 and an abrupt nose down pitching moment after CLr~ 1S

)

indicated in Figure 119. Removal of the inboard VCR reduced the drag by 0.008.

Reynolds Number Effects on VCR with Single-Slot Flap (Tail-0ff). - The Reynolds number effect on VCK ~ith single-slo. landing and takeoff deflections is presented in Figures 120 and 121. A CL~1AX reduction of 0.16 tVc1S also obtain:!d for the single slot configuration. The pitching moment shift is similar to the two-segIrent flaps.

VCR "lith Single-Slot Flap and Horizontal Tail. - The effect of horizontal tail deflection for landing and takeoff single-slot flap deflections is sh~v.n in Figures 122 and 123. The landing flaps pitching moment tr.ends indica te some reduction in neqative pitching moment prior to stall for il{ ;0: no. Takeoff flaps pitch characteristics are improved.

Slat Configuration The slat with two-segment landing flaps configuration is shown in Figure 124. l\s nention:!d previously, this configuration was evaluated with the optimized flap system defined in the previous lTCT, studies.

-)

Slat Landing and Takeoff Optimization. - A slat deflection and poSition survey \-/as evaluated \-/ith the two-segment flap system. Figure 125 presents 0 0 the slat 25 /35 position study. A CLrtAX of 3.00R was obtained. The basic- tail-off pitching moment trends indicate positive pitch increments prior to CLMAX' and no significant ..-fe'oct due to the change il"l slat position. The draq values show a slight reduction in drag for the small gap and overhang

(roap = 1.5%, n.H. = -1%). Figure 126 presents the sectional lift values for

the b/o configurations. The significant trends fran these plots at the hiqh angles of attuck are the lift loss at the 50- and 72-fercent span statlons, and the almost constant sectional lift values near the stall for the b~o inboord Sp:lD stations.

0 0 The effect of slat position for the 15 /25 slat deflection lG sh~m 1n Figure 127. The CLl1AX increased to 3.2, but the pitch characteristics are

s~milar to the 25 /35 slat d~flection. Near the 1.3 Vs condition, th~

difference in drag due to the char!qe in slat position is small. Figure 12P illustrates the sectional lift values for the SMall qap and O.H. posltion.

Results are similar to the 25°/35 slat results. Sane improvement is noted o 10 the sectional lift variation at 90-percent span station lo/ith the 7S outboard slat deflection. Figure 129 presents the chordwise pressure

A r.PMIN value of -15.4 is shown for the 50-percent span station (Figure 1290). This station rema1ned attached for the angles of attack 1nvestigated. Also shown in Figure 1290 are the attached flolll at the 20-percent span station and the reduced lift at the 72.5-Fercent span station. Figure 130 shm'is the section lift variation with angle of attack for Run 154. The relatively constant lift at the highei: angles of attack for the 20- and 30-percent sran stations is readily app:lrent. Canpuison of the 72.5-percent sp3.n station sectional lift characteristics for 25A/35A and 15D/25D (Figures 126A and 130), 1ndicate a reduction 1n ma:dmum lift and lift loss for the larger slat deflection.

Figure 131 presents the results of the slat position survey for tbe t\lo-seqrcent takeoff flap configuration. The largest CLl1J\X \-JaS obta ined ,-Ii th

posit10n 15D/250 (Gap = 2.25%, O.H. = 2%). Significant reduction in CLrlAX

and increase in drag is shown for the large gap ancl overhang position (Run 174). ~e pitching moment trenns are similar for the various grid positions.

)

The sectional lift values are sha,.ln in Figure 132. Reducen sect.ional ] ift values are indica ten for the large gap ancl overhang poSition (run 174) as expected. The small gap ,ncl ovp.rhang (JOs1tion (Run 175) results in the best sectional 11ft. variation at ')1 -~rrent sran station. Figure 133 illustrates the chordw1~ pressure distribution for Run 173 ((;ap = ~.25%, ().I~. ..: -~%).

Note\-lorthy 1:" the increase in loading for the 20-percent sran station at

angles of attack qreater than QCLMAX' ~xamination of min1-tuft photographs for the lnboarn w1nq indicatecl significantly reduced tuft activity canp;lred to the optimizecl VCK configuration. The large chord, and qreater sparn-lise extent of the inboard slat (see Figures 4Q and 50) resulted in siqnificantly less lift loss at high angles of attack for this region of the w1ng. ~his is confirmed by the trends shown in Figure 134 for the 20-percent Sp:)n station. Sane reduction in the 1 ift values at high anqles of attack fOl the 90-percent span station 1S also noted. This \mulel indicate, in a siMilar fashion to the landing slat and the VCK sturlies, that thp. rp.duced gap and overhang position is best for the most outboard region of the \-linq. Sane reduction 1n lift at the 30-percent sp3.n station is noted at the hiqher angles of attack as well as a substantial reduction lr. 1.ift for the 72.'5-percent span station.

takeoff configurations just discussed, indicated significant reduction in LID characteristics with slat deflected at the landing position. Improved LID perforrrence \'lOuld appear possible with a sealed-slat configuration (slat trailing edge sealed at the truss surface) and this configuration should be evaluated in a future te~t program.

Hach NUmbe r Effects on Slat with Two-&!mrent Flap. - Figure 135 presents the influence of increasing l-1ach number on the lift, pitching moment:, d:':lg, and r~/D characteristics. The CL~,1AX reduction of 0.23 is indicatf:d for an increase in ~'lach number from 0.20 to 0.32. The most significant diHer.;:~ces in lift occurred at the angles of attack after CL~mx was achiEved.

Increasing the ~Ech number also resulted in slightly larger lift values prior to CLrtA.x. Figure 13') also indicates that reduced stability occurs ac the 10\'1er angle of attack for CLr-1AX as the l1:lch number is increased. S:nall differences in drag and LID are also shown in Figure 135. ]\nalysis o~ +:he pressure data lnc'licated local regions of supeL"critical flow on the outboard -) slat for 0.26 and 0.32 f1:lch numbers.

]\ similar comparison is shO\"n in Figure 136 for the slot with ulc-sec:;::lent takeoff flLlP configuration. The changes in lift and pitching Moment due to increasing tEch number are siITIilClr to those for the landing config.lration.· A red,--,ction in CLr1AX of 0.11 is shO\-/n for an increase in Mdch number from O.~~ to 0.32. A slight reduction in drag, at a qiven lift coefficient, is also sha.ln in Figure 136 and this res~lts in slightly larger values of LID.

Reynolds Number Bffects on Slat \'lith 'l'.i/o-l)eq::ent Flap. - The influence of a reduction in Heynolds number frCl'l the nminal test condition for the slat I·lith t\olo-segment landing flaps configuration is shown in Figure 137. CLr~.x reductions of 0.09 and 0.29 are shO'tm for the intemediate and 10\" Reynolds 6 6 ,

number test conditions (RNMAC = 2.R9xl0 and RNMAC = l.14xl0

respectively). A positive shift in pltchlng moment for angles of attack preceding CLr'IAX is also shmlQ for the 10\-1 Reynolds ntnnber condition. l\s expected, for a given lift coefficient the drag increased and the LID

decreased wlth the reduction in Reynolds number. The tail-off Lin valres at

1.3 Vs \lere 10.20, 9.85, and 9.60 for the high, intermediate, and 10\,1

Reynolds number effects on the takeoff configuration longitudinal characteristics are shown in Figure 138. The reductions in CLMAX were 0.10, and 0.30 for the intermediate and low Reynolds number. The effects of Reynolds number on the pitching moment characteristics are similar to the landing configuration. L(D values at 1.2 Vs are 11.55, 11.40, and 11.35 for the high, internediate, and 1<M Reynolds number. Comparison with the VCK configuration indicates a greater influence on CL~~ due to a change in Reynolds number for the configuration with a slat leading edge device.

Slat with T\.,o-SegMent Flap and Horizontal Tail. - Figure 139 presents the high Reynolds number characteristics of the sla t wi th two-segment landing flaps configuration with the horizontal tail attached. Reduced stability is indicated prior to CLMAX for both stabilizer settings. Achievement of improved pitch characteristics will result from future tests with modifications to increase the lift loss inboard. The effect of Reynolds number on horizontal tail-on longitudinal characteristics is shown in Figure 140. A reduction in CLMAX of 0.25 is indicated. At the reduced Reynolds

,)

number the basic trends of the pitch characteristics are similar, although the angle of attack for CLMA.X is renuced. Figure 141 presents the influence of the horizontal tail on the slat with olO-segment takeoff flap deflection.

Pitching manent trends are similar in character to those obtained with the landing flap deflection.

Slat with Singlp-Slot Flap Charact~ristics. - The influence of Payno1ds number on the slat with single-slot flap configurations is shown in Figures 142 to 144. For the 25K/0 single-slot flap deflection, a CL~~ of 2.95 and 2.77 is shown in Figure 142 for the high and low Reynolds number test condition. The resulting change in CLMAX is O.lB. A reduced pitch stability for the angles of attack prior to CLMAX ~s shown in Figure 143. A significant reduction in the pitching manent stahility after CLr1AX is shown for the high Reynolds number condition. L/D values at 1.3 Vs \Olere 10.5 and 9.9 for the high and 1<M Reynolds number condition.

For the l5G/O single-slot flap deflection, a CL~fAX of 2.71 and 2.50 shown in Figure 143 for the high and 1<M Reynolds number condition ( CLr1AX is 0.21).

The P~ynolds number effect on pitching moment is similar to the single-slot

landing flap aata. 'l1le LID values at 1.2 Vs are 11.80 and 11.70 for the high and low Reynolds number test condition.

For 51\/0 takeoff flap deflection, CLMAX values of 2.62 and 2.33 are shown in Figure 144. Figure 144 also shows a Significant reduction in stability after CLMAX is achieved for the high Reynolds number test condition. The corresponding LID values at 1.2 Vs are 11.8 and 11.6 for the high and low Reynolds number condition.

The influence of the horizontal tail for the slat with the landing single-slot flap configuration is presented in Figure 145. Pitch characteristics near stall are similar in character to those obtained with the landing oro-segment flap configuration.

Clean Leading Edge Configuration The t'4o-segyrent and single-slot aerodynamic characteristics with the leading edge device removed (cruise wing leading edge) are shown in Figures 146 and 147. For both flap systems, outboatd leading edge separation occurs at

)

decreasing angles of attack as the flap deflection is increased.

Essentially similar values of wing leading edge CPr.ml values \-lere indicated for the various flap detlections. Due to the expected outboard sepacation, only small gains in CL~~X were obtained with increasing flap deflection.

The flaps are very effective in increasing the lift at small angles of attack. The two-segment flap at 25K/12C achieved at CLa=O of 1.50.

'I\ro-segment and single slot ACLr1AX and CLa=O increments (relative to the cruise wing) are presented in the rata Sumrrary section.

Clean Trailing Edge Configuration The influence of Reynolds number on the VCK with flaps retractd (clean trailing edge) configuration is shown in Figure 148. A CLr-1AX of 2.56 for the high Reynolds number condition \-laS obtained. 'l1le corresponding value at the low Reynolds number condition was 2.14. In comparison to the cruise wlng configuration (Figure 73), the angle of attack for Cr.lW~ has been 0 0 increased from 12.58 to 20.85 , the CLMAX increased by 0.71, and favorable stability characteristics at CLMAX was obtained for the VCK extended configuration at the high Reynolds number test condition. As with the takeoff and landing flap deflection, the low Reynolds number condition

)

results in a positive pitch increrrent for most of the angle of attack range.

ORIGINAL PAGE IS OF POOR QUALITY The basic trend of the pitcping moment is sl~i]~r for both Reynolds number • . tension of the VCR also reduced the LID at 1.2 Vs to 11.0 (compared to 17.~ for the cruise wing configuration).

Figure 149 illustrates the slat with flaps retracted configuration. The effect of the horizontal tail on this configuraticn is shown in Figure 150.

Hith the horizontal tail removed a CL~tA..,{ of 2.30 was obtained, with an initial nose down pitching moment at CLrtl\X. The Lin at 1.2 Vs was 12.1 (a larger value than for the VCR extended configuration). Comparison of the cruise wing, flaps retracted, and takeoff and landing flap LID characteristics, indicate improved takeoff performance may be possible by an alternate slat position. The LID perforrrance should be increased by rreans of a sealed slat configuration of reduced slat deflection, and this configuration is reccmrended for future experimental evaluation. Figure 150 also indicates, for the horizontal tail-on configuration, a reduction in stability prior, to stall, followed by nose-down pitching moment after

CL~~. Figure 151 shows the effect of a modified trim position for the inboard slat. The modified trim position was 2.54 em (1.0 in) farther outboard than the basic slat trim near the fuselage. A small change in

CLr1AX (~Lr1AX = 0.027), an increase in the angle of attack for CLr1AX' and a

small reduction in LID at 1.2 VS' is indicated in Figure 151. A substantial

favorable change in the pitching manent characteristics is sha,m in Figure 151 for the high angles of attack. This revised trim position is also suggested for future testing with the deflected flap configurations.

Ajlercn and ~iler Studies Aileron effectiveness is presented for the cruise, takeoff, and landing configurations in Figures 152, 153, and 154, respectively. At pre-stall angles of attack, the aileron effectiveress is well-behaved for the cruise and landing configurations. The takeoff configuration data exhibit similar trends for lilOst of the angle of attack range tested, but rear the stall the

)

effectiveress of the downgoing aileron is diminished.

The shape of the rolling moment curve with aileron deflection indlcates for all flap settings that the negative deflections (TEU) are more effective than the positive (TED). In some cases, the incremental rolling moment obtained for negative ailercn deflections was twice as large as the corresponding value for positive aileron deflection. These data were obtaired in the NASA Ames 12-Foot Pxess~re Wind Tunnel at high Reynolds n~ber conditions.

Spoller effectiveness for the cruise, takeoff, and landing configurations is presented in Figures 155, 156, and 157, respectively. The spoiler data were

obtained in the tIl-SA Langley V/moL Hind Tunnel at an atmospheric P.eynolds

number. The data indicate well-behaved characteristics for the three configurations with increasing effectiveress being shown for increased flap deflections. The spoiler arrangement consists of large chord panels compatible with space available aft of the rear spar and spoiler span corresponding to the flap span. This powerful spoiler configuration is needed because of the reduced roll rate capability associated with

)

high-aspect-ratio wings.

The effect of symmetrical spoiler deflection for takeoff and landing flap ooflection is shown in Figures 158 through 161. '1bese results were obtained for out-of-ground-effect conditions. '1he large spoiler chord and sr:anwise extent is very effective in reducing the lift and increasing the draq for both flap deflections for a constant angle of attack (i.e. I aFRP ~ 0 ). A siqnificant positive pitching ~oment shift is also apparent for both the takeotf and landing configuration. tVhile the reduction in lift and mcrease in nraq would result in greater deceleration on the ground, the IJOsitive increment of pitching manent would tend to unload the nosewheel. '!he qround effect on pitchinq moment, lift, and drag, with the spoilers deflecte.I nhould be obtainen in a future test program.

Figurf' 160 indicates a reduction in r.r. of 1.18 due to 30 deqrees of spoiler

deflection, and 1.56 for 60 degrees of spoiler deflection for the landi nq flap setting. Figure 161 shais an increase in drag of 0.115 is attained for the 60 degrees spoiler deflectlon at the landing flap deflection. ~ similar maqni tude 0.143 is obtained \iith 30 oogrees spoiler deflection with takeoff

J

flap deflection (for aborted takeoff).

Landing r~ar Stunies The effect of the landing qedl on rlrag and CLr~~ is shown In Figure l6~. ~e

rlraq increment is reduced slightly with lncreasinq Cr. values. The Increnenl

-~- in draq IS very similar for the takeoff and landing flap deflections. 7he effect of the landing gear on rLMAX for takeoff flap deflection IS neqligible (-0.002) and -0.076 for the landing flap deflections.

)0l)1.I1)""" FIGURE 171. TAIL-OFF C COMPARISON BETWEEN ADVANCED COMMERCIAL AIRCRAFT AND L DC-10 MAX and circular arc vane-flap system. Figure 171 indicates a significant improvement in CLHl\X for the high aSI=ect ratio wing and advanced high lift system.

The VCR optimization ,,,as performed at takeoff and landing flap deflections with two-segment flap. The landing flap deflection was 2S11/12C. The correspondinq takeoff flap deflection for the VCR optimization was SC/IOB.

Results of the deflection and position surveys indicated that the smaller VCK deflection of 45 degrees obtained the best performance in terms of L/n and CLMAX. Hor,.rever, analysis of the surface pressure distributions sh~d that the VCR was over-deflected. Analysis also indicated that a larqer yap for the inboard VCR \-las required to suppress a premature stall of the inboard region of the ,-ring which reduced CLI-'.AX. This premature inboard stall is thought to be an effect of the adverse merging of the VCR/Airfoil wake system with the flow over the flap. The flaperon section \'las especially sensitive to the leading edge device deflection and gap.

)

\,

)

Increasing the gap permitted the inner wing sections to increase their rnaxllntml lift car:abil ty.

It \'las also noted that the outboard aileron region of the wing indicated poor trailing edge pressure recovery for most high lift configurations.

This was due in part to the relatively low Reynolds number in this region but also due to the conflicting leading edge deflection and position requi rements for the flapped and non-f1aPJ=ed portions of the outboard wing r:anel. For the flap~d portion of the wing, the pressure recovery \'las only to the spoiler trailing edge velocity. This was a Significantly higher velocity than freestream conditions due to the influence of the flaps. For the outboard aileron region (non-flap~d), the pressure distribution on the wing has a more adverse recovery to freestream conditions from large suction peaks due to the adverse effects of sweep, asp:ct ratio and taper. Future tests \-Till investigate differential leading edge device position for these t\lO outboard regions.

)

From the VCI< grid positions investigated, the final configuration selected for the VCK leading edge device was an inboard gap and overhang of 3.5 percent and -1.0 percent (VCK trailing edge one percent ahead of wing leading edge), and corresponding values for the outboard VCK \'lere 2.5 percent and -1.0 percent. The VCK deflection was 45 degrees. This VCK configuration was selected by CLr1AX7 L/D and pitching moment characteristics.

R~sults of the slat deflection and grid survey indica teo that, for CLrlAX and L/D characteristics, the minimum slat deflection of 15D/25D (inboard/outboard slat deflection) with a gap of 2.5 percent and overhang of -2.0 percent \-laS the best overall configuration tested. With the original inboard slat sr:amlise extent, satisfactory pitch dmm at stall could !'lot I:e obtained. Improved stalling characteristics were obtained for the flaps retracted configuration \-Then the inboard slat was trimmed further out from the fuselage. This exposed mo::-e of the inner wing clean leading edge and resulted in more inboard wing stall. This slat modification did not cause a siqnificant C''11!AX penalty. Further experinental optimization is required to improve the pitching moment and takeoff L/D characteristics.

~Tith the VCK leading edge device, both the twcrsegment and single-slot flap were optimized at each of the flap deflections. For the two-segment flap system, the main flap grid was evaluated first and was foll~ved by an aft flap deflection survey with the best main flap position. Results of the main flap position survey indicated relatively SlTall changes in CLr-2\.'{, L/D, and pitchinq marent characteristics. Fran the optimization of the aft flap deflection at each main flap deflection, values of 5C/10B, 15/10B, anc 25K/12C were the best canpranise in terms of CLw\x, CLa=O, L/D and pi tchinq moment characteristics. At 35 degrees of main flap deflection the optimization indicated the fla~ron ... ,as separated for most main flap grid positions. Reducinq the flaperon deflection to 25 degrees while rraintaining the inboard and outboard two-segment flap at 35R/12C improved the drag characteristics; however, this would not be a practical aircraft configuration. '!he single-slo' flap optimization results indicated tha t for each flap deflection the aerodyramic characteristics "'lere 3imilar to those of the train flap grid study of the two-segment flap (i.e., not extremely

)

sensitive to the grid position) • A comparison of the triITl!red CLr1AX and Cr'a=O characteristics for the various high lift systems is shown in Fiqure 172. As noted previously, it is felt that the VCI~ ... ,as over-deflected and the resulting coopuison ShCMS the slat plus two-segrrent flap iXlS the largest values of maximum lift coefficient.

v ith the single-slot flap the differences between slat and VCK are rerlllceci, \·/ith the slat being su~rior at small flap deflections and the VCr: superior at the larger flap deflections.

'T'he lift coefficient at zero angle of attack for the two-segment flap \litl: the VCK is su~rior to that with the slat irr:talled. On the other hand, very little difference is noted for the single-slot fl~p \;lith either the VCI~ or the slat leading edge device. It can also be seen that the two-segT.'lent flap at landing deflections han a higher naxirtum lift caIBbility than the ../ sinq1e-slot flap regardless of the 1eadinq edge device.

AND C MAX LQ~O Due to overdeflection of the VCR, the slat ShCMS superior performance a t the lm.,er Cr, values. Only minor differences in the L/D envelopes are ShQ\-ffi between the two-segment and single-slot flaps. The overall L/D values indicate that further optiMization of the leading edge device positions for takeoff flap deflections could result in improved LID characteristics.

A cOMparison of the t\-lo-seqment and single-slot flap systems ,·lith the VCR at lanaing conditions is shown in Fiqure 182. For an equal CL (i.e., equal approach speed) the tyro-segment flap system has a superior approach L/n. In fact, it is of interest to note that the two-segment and single-slot flaps (at deflections of 15/10 and 25/0, respectively) have the same approach CL- For this CL' the two-seqrrent flap has a l6-percent improvement in approach L/D relative to the single-slot confiquration.

atr.lospheric to maximum pressure conditions (.lr.Lrw. = 0.42). Also note\.,.orthy

is the difference in variation beb..een the VCK and slat configurations. The Feynolds nUTllber effect is Much larger for the slat confiquration. With the siqnificantly recluced suction peaks of the VCR configuration, a smaller variation with Peynolds number \-lould be expected. r~ch number can also affect the hiqh lift characteristics due to the large velocities about the leading-edqe elements near stall. This is illustrated in Figure lR4 for the clean \-Jinq and the slat with blO-segment flaps at the takeoff setting.

These results were obtained at a reduced Reynolds number due to tunnel operating limits. The clean "ling sh~'s a n.l reduction in CLr1AX as the 'bch nLmlber is increased from 0.2 to 0.32. This increment increases to 0.14 for the takeoff flap setting. These trends are similar to those of current transport configurations.

The full span VCR was sealed at the fuselage sire and continues uninterrupted across the pylon ann extends to the wing tips. Also shown is the effect of the removal of the VCR piece in the area of the pylon, and finally, a portion of the VCR near the fuselage to obtain the basic configuration.

Figure 185 indicates a CLrlAX of 3.4 was obtained for the full spm VCR \>lith nacelles and pylon off at the o,lo-segrrent landing flap settinq. Addition of the nacelle pylon group to the full span VCR configuration resulterl in a CLr1AX reduction approaching 0.1 as shown in the right-side of the Figure IRS. Removal of the VCR in the region cf the pylon resulted in a loss of another 0.1 in CL~mx. Finally, removal of the VCR near the side of the fuselage resulted in a 0.02 decrease in CLrlAX. It is to be noted tha~ as the CLr1Jl.X recreased due to these cr.anges, the pitch characteristics a t stall

CDNPARlOON OF EXPERlME~rrAL DATA HI'llI ESTIMA'lEn ME'IHODS Canparisons of theoretical and eAperimental results have been made for the crliise ~ling configuration W3B. '!he theoretical results were calculated by the Giesing vortex lattice nethod (Reference 5) and the Douglas version of '.

the Jameson-Caughey (FL022) three-dimensionial transonic flow program (Reference 3). The latter program includes an approximate fuselage simulation, an accelerated iteration step, and an iterated twcrdirrensional strip boundary layer solution.

Figure 186 presents the comparison of the theoretical and the e~rim:mtal data. '£\.10 sets of experimental data are presented. The basic data have been corrected for wind tunnel wall effects, but not for the influence of the support system (tanrem struts). The flagged symbols have been corrected for this effect. The strut tares were derived from an extensive e~rirrental p~ogram retailed in Reference 6. The struts for the current

)

configuration were placed further aft than for the previous e~rimental data base on which the strut tares were evaluated. A theoretical study utilizing the Douglas Three-Dinensional Lifting Neumann program (P.eference 8) was performed to assess the significance of this further aft strut placement. This analysis, ~lhich included the effect of the strut wake system, indicated that the further aft placement of the systeM was not a significant factor. The theoretically predicted lift increment due to the strut system was in good agreenent wit:h the experirrentally determined value.

Figure 186 also ShO'>'IS the Neumann geometry for the configuration and the theoretical model of the strut and \oTake system.

Both the Giesing vortex lattice and Jameson results are in good agreement with the strut tare corrected experimental values. The test data were obtained at the nominal high Reynolds number condition in the Ames 12-Foot Pressure Wind Tunnel.

Comparisons of experimental and Jameson calculated wing pressures were generated and an example is presented in Figure 187. '!his canr:arison is for the 72.5-percent span location at the angle of attack for stall. Good

The three-dimensional section lift distri~ution is predicted using lifting surface theory (Reference 5), and integration of this lift distribution yields the value of wing maximum lift. The values of maximum lift coefficient across the span are obtained from a correlation of two-dimensional wind tllr'_'1el data, which account for airfoil Reynolds number and ge<::lretry, including leading e'::1ge radius, naximum c&nber, and loca tion of lJ".aximurn camber and thickness.

The parasite drag increment for the flap plus leading-edge device is based on previous three-dimensional test data for high lift configurations incorporating two-segment flaps, VCR, and slat geometries. Flap-induced drag incr~ments relative to the clean wing were generated by the Giesinq vortex lattice program (Reference 5) for the various flap settings. The nacelle-induced dr~g estimates are also based on the same method. The miscellaneous drag tenn includes the effect of the landing gear.

i~ECEOING PAGE BLANK NOT FILMEO CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMl'ENIll\TIONS Conclusions Results of the Phase I lOW-S{:eed high lift tests have indicated significant aerodynamic performance improvements for the supercritica1 wing with advanced high lift systems. As with any rew configuration, certain items require further development. This configura tion is no different in this respect than other aircraft that have preceded it. t-/here improvements are Cesireo, the neans to achieve these goals seem available, and are contained in the recamrendations. '!his canbined NASA-Douglas research effort has helped to provide confidence in performance levels, established a comprehensive data base for analysis of developing methods, and highlighted future development areas.

The following conclusions can be dra,m fran the analysis of the test data:

:J

1. The cruise wing achieved, for the high Reynolds number test condition, a trimmed CL~1AX of 1.5 and an LID at 1.2 Vs of 15.0. Pitch characteristics indicated that outboard wing panel stall characteristics are influenced by changes in l1ach and Reynolds number.

The ongoing high-speed wing development has altered the span loading in a manner that \lill improve the stalling behavior.

2. The optimization of the leading-edge devices indicated superior CL~iAX and LID performance for the siat configuration, whereas the pitch characteristics for the VCK ... ,ere superior to the slat. The loading obtained on the VCK indicated that improved performance may be achieved by a reduction in VCK deflection. The superior VCK pitch ~ characteristics resulted from an increased amount of inboard stall relative to the slat configuration and the ability of the VCK to prevent significant lift loss over the outboard ... ling. '!he VQ{ cutout at the mcelle pylon and the fuselage side contributed to the improved inboa rd VCl{ pi tch characteristics. The best compromise between perfornance and stability and control for the VCK was obtaired

... lith a 45 VCK deflection, and for the slat, the corresponding values were a 150 inboard and a 25 outboard deflection. Improvements in aerodynamic performance and pitch characteristics could result from further leading-edge device optimization studies.

3. Trailing-edge flap studies indicated that the changes in ~rforrnance nue to gap and overhang variations of the flap system were not as significant as the corresponding variations for the leaning-edge devices. Optimization of the aft flap deflection, at each main flap deflection, resulted in the selection of SC/IOB, ISH/lOB, and 25K/12C as the best compromise in terms of Cr.~lAX' CLa=O, L/D, aircraft attitude, and pitching ~onent characteristics. As expected, the two-segment flap was superior in CLI1AX and flap lift increment.

Trimmed polar comparisons indicated equivalent L/D envelopes for takeoff flap settings. For equivalent values of approach speed, the L/D values for the t'llo-segrrent flap were su~rior to the single slotted

~

flap. Improverrent of the pitch characteristics nay also be obtained in future studies by means of different flap deflection for the inboard and outboard sections (differential flap deflection).

4. llach and Reynolds number effects \-lere studied during the test program for selected configurations. The cruise wing C!.r1AX was reduced 0.1 as the Bach number \'las increased from 0.20 to 0.32. The slat ""ith olo-segrrent flap ... ,as also evaluated for llach number effects and the reduction in CL~1AX' for the ~rne increase in l\:\ch number, \VclS 0.14 and 0.24 for the takeoff and landing flaps, res}:'ectively. The cruise wing showed a significant increase in CLrlAX as the Reynolds number WnS varied fren the atmospheric condition to the value at maximum pressure conditions (Rr-Tr1AC = 1.14xl0 to %l1A.C = S.12xI0 ). '!he CL~1AX increa~ \VclS 0.42 for this Reynolds number variation. The angles of attack for CLllAX were changed by the Reynolds number variation, but the character of the stall t-laS similar. For the high lift configurations, the effect of Reynolds number on the slat leading-edge configuration ... las much larger than for the VCR. This '>laS true for both takeoff and landing

flap deflections. For the range of Reynolds number tested, typical values of the increase in CLMAX were, for takeoff and landing two-segment flaps, 0.32 and 0.34 for the slat and 0.15 and 0.05 for the VCK. The change in Reynolds number did not alter the basic charact-=r of the pitching moment data. Angle of attack for CLMAX and the magnitude of the pitching moment variation for poststall conditions were influanced by the Reynolds number change.

5. The effects of the nacelles, pylons, and VCI< span interruptions at fuselage side and near the pylon were to reduce CLr11\X' However, the pitch characteristics of the configuration were improved. The full-span VCK, without nacelles and pylons, achieved a CLrtAX of 3.4 with landing blO-segrrent flap deflections. This CLMAX was reduced to 3.2 with the normal VCK cutouts. The slat configuration \vas sealed in the area of the pylon and p.ad an inboard trim pasi tion closer to the fuselage side. I~proved pitch trends could result from increased

)

outboard trim position (further fran the fuselage and closer to the VCK sparn-lise position) and a revised trim over the pylon.

6. The clean leading-edqe characteristics showed dramatically that the development of the leading-edge configuration was of equivalent ~portance to the developrent of the trailing-edge high lift system.

t-1i thout the leadinq-edge device (clean leading-edge configuration), the ACLr,lAX \olith flap deflection \vas only 0.6. Achievement of large CLr1AX fer these configurations requires significant leading-edge protection for the outboard wing panel.

7. The sla t extended, flaps retracted pitching moment variation Has improved significantly by a revised trim position for the inboard slat.

This revised ~osition was at an increased distance from the fuselage side. Future evaluation of this configuration for the flaps deflected case at high Reynolds number is expected to show improvements in the pitching moment trends.

-' R. Aileron effectiveness studies indicated that, for all flap settings, negative deflections (trailing-edge up) were more effective than positive (trailing-edge down) deflections. In some cases, the incremental rolling moment obtained with the negative aileron deflections reached values twice as large as the corresponding value for positive aileron deflections.

9. The effect of spoiler deflection on roll characteristics indicated improvea effectiveness as the flap deflection was increased.

Symmetrical spoiler deflection for takeoff and landing flap deflections showed the spoilers to be very effective in reducing lift and increasing drag.

In. The influence of the landing gear was shOlm to be negligible on CLr1c'\X at takeoff conditions, but resulted in a 0.076 reduction in CLrw.x for the landing flap conflguration. The incremental drag nue to the

~

landing gear \-las essentially the sat:le for takeoff and landing flap reflections.

11. The effects of the mini-tuft flQ\-l visualization technique on tpe low-speed high lift aerodynamic characteristics (including CLrtAX, pi tchinq manent, and drag) \..ere not significant. 'llie data did indicate a slight reduction in drag for the crUlse wing and high lift configurations with the tufts mounted on the model.

Recomnenda tions Analysis of the data obtained has highlighted areas \'lhere continued efforts could result in further improverrents of the technology. Items are suggested to improve the follo\'linq lO\-T-speed aerodynamic characteristics: LID for takeoff flap deflections, pitching marent for the high lift configura tions, and improved lift and drag by replacement of the flaperon. The test iter.s reCOMmended for future studies include:

/' 1. Sealed Slat Leacling-Edge Configuration. - This configuration is primarily airred at improving the takeoff L/D {:erfornance. 'Ibis ty{:e of configuration has been successfully used in previous aircraft and although nechanically more complex, the existing L/O trends indicate the takeoff {:erformance can be improved.

2. Reduced YO< Deflection. - Evaluation of CPz,lnl for the VCR configura tion ; indica ted that the VCK, at the minimum ceflection tested, tray have been overceflected. A reduced VCR deflection may result in lower profile drag and improved outboard wing pal~l characteristics.

3. Segrrented Outboarc'i LeaQing-Edge DeviceS. - Both the VCR and slat grid studies indicated that the flapped and nonflapped portions of the outboard wing achieved their best performance \-lith different grid posltions. Thus, the ability to position the leading edge device incepmdently in these regions would result in improved lift, pitching

moment, and drag. A cut near AD-percent semispan position for the leading-edge devices is recararended.

Revised Slat Trim. - Analysis of the test data indicated the existing 4.

inboard slat configuration did not result in appreciable lift loss at high angles of attack. A revised slat trim for the inboard slat (at a greater distance from the fuselage) was evaluated for the clean trailing-edge configuration (i.e., no flap deflection). This revised trim resulted in improved pitching moment characteristics with an acceptable penalty in CL~rnx. This configuration is reccnmended for future study with the takeoff and landing configurations. Also, a revised trim in the area of the pylon (absence of pylon/slat sealing) should result in improved pitch characteristics •
