NASA NTRS1987

An experimental investigation of dynamic ground effect

A 60-degree delta wing, an F-106B, and an XB-70 model with and without flap deflections were tested in static and dynamic ground effect in the 36-by 51-inch subsonic wind tunnel at the University of Kansas. Dynamic ground effect was measured with movable sting support. For flow visualization, a tufted wire grid was mounted on the movable sting behind the model. Test results showed that lift and drag increments in dynamic ground effect were always lower than static values. Effect of the trailing edge flap deflections on lift increments was slight. The fuselage reduced the lift increments at a given ground height. From flow visualization under static conditions, the vortex core was seen to enlarge as the ground was approached.

An experimental investigation of dynamic ground effect

Sixty degree delta wing, F-106B, and XB-70 models with and without flap deflections were tested in static and dynamic ground effect in the 36 by 51 inch subsonic wind tunnel at the University of Kansas. Dynamic ground effect was measured with movable sting support. For flow visualization, a tufted wire grid was mounted on the movable sting behind the model. Tests results showed that the lift and drag increments in dynamic ground effect were always lower than the static values. Effect of the trailing-edge flap deflections on lift increments was slight.

NASA NTRS1986

An experimental investigation of dynamic ground effect

Experimental studies were conducted to determine the longitudinal force and moment aerodynamic coefficients for a 1/48 scale model of an F-106 aircraft and a 0.01 scale model of an XB-70-1 aircraft. The two airplanes and one 60 degree delta wing model were designed and fabricated to satisfy the specific test conditions of the Kansas University wind tunnel with a 3 by 4.3 test section. Results of the tests are given
