description abstractINTRODUCTION
A damping-in-roll investigation has been conducted for a series of wings of several aspect ratios and airfoil thickness ratios using the NACA 65A-series airfoil section. Previous damping-in-roll tests of rectangular wings by this technique (reference 1) indicated that experimental damping would vary with airfoil thickness ratio; therefore, the present series of tests were conducted t o determine the relationship between the damping in roll for both thickness ratio and aspect ratio.
The test wings were mounted on identical fuselages incorporating canted nozzles, as described in reference 1. The damping-in-roll coefficient and the total-drag coefficient were obtained for each configuration at zero lift through a Mach number range of approximately 0.8 to 1.4, corresponding to Reynolds numbers from 3 X 106 to 8 X 106. The models were tested in flight at the Pilotless Aircraft Research Station at Wallops Island, Va.
