A preliminary investigation of the aerodynamic and control characteristics of a flexible glider similar to a parachute in construction has been made at the Langley Research Center to evaluate its capabilities as a reentry glider. Preliminary weight estimates of the proposed vehicle indicate that such a structure can be made with extreamly low wing loading. Maximum temperatures during the reentry maneuver might be held as low as about 1,500 degrees F.

Download Wind-tunnel Investigation of Paraglider Models at Supersonic Speeds Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
An investigation was made in the Langley Unitary Plan wind tunnel to determine the behavior of paraglider models at moderate to high supersonic speeds. The models were deployed from a sting in the supersonic stream and steady-state aerodynamics performance data were obtained. Maximum values of the lift-drag ratio were about 1.4 at a Mach number of 2.65 and about 1.2 at a Mach number of 4.65. The angles of attack over which the models could be flown were limited by unsteady behavior of the canopy.

Download Airplane Stability and Control Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
From the early machines to today's sophisticated aircraft, stability and control have always been crucial considerations. In this second edition, Abzug and Larrabee again forge through the history of aviation technologies to present an informal history of the personalities and the events, the art and the science of airplane stability and control. The book includes never-before-available impressions of those active in the field, from pre-Wright brothers airplane and glider builders through to contemporary aircraft designers. Arranged thematically, the book deals with early developments, research centers, the effects of power on stability and control, the discovery of inertial coupling, the challenge of stealth aerodynamics, a look toward the future, and much more. It is profusely illustrated with photographs and figures, and includes brief biographies of noted stability and control figures along with a core bibliography. Professionals, students, and aviation enthusiasts alike will appreciate this readable history of airplane stability and control.

Download Free-flight Investigation of the Deployment of a Parawing Recovery Device for a Radio-controlled 1/5-scale Dynamic Model Spacecraft Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
A free-flight investigation of a redio-controlled model of a manned reentry spacecraft with a telescoping rigid parawing as a recovery system was made to evaluate the deployment process and the stability and control characteristics of the configuration. Flight tests showed that the parawing could be deployed from a packaged condition, but that the deployment process must be a sequence of carefully controlled and timed events, and that some portions of the deployment should not occur at too fast a rate. The most significant single factor learned about the deployment process was that the parawing had to be slowly rotated to a lifting condition. Transition which is too fast from zero lift to maximum lift would result in a tumbling motion. After the parawing was deployed, the configuration was stable and controllable.
