1 6 . Abstract This report contains a comprehensive data base on the low-speed aerodynamic characteristics of the NACA 0012 airfoil section. The Langley Low-Turbulence Pressure Tunnel was used to obtain the data. Included in the report are the effects of Mach number, Reynolds number, and transition fixing on the aerodynamic characteristics. Also presented are comparisons of some of the results with previously published data and with theoretical estimates. The Mach number varied from 0.05 to 0.36. The Reynolds number based on model chord varied from about 2 to 12 ~ 1 0 ~ .
