DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe effect of a finite trailing-edge thickness on the pressure drag of rectangular and delta wings with truncated diamond-shaped airfoil sections with a given thickness ratio is studied for supersonic Mach numbers, linearized theory being used to evaluate the surface pressures. In order to facilitate comparison with wings having sharp trailing edges, the position of maximum thickness and base height are determined for least thickness and base height are determined for least pressure drag as functions of a base-pressure parameter. Comparison is then made between the drag of these wings and similar wings with a sharp trailing edge for various aspect ratios and thickness ratios as a function of stream Mach number. The calculations of the drag characteristics for these wings show that significant drag characteristics for these wings show that significant drag reductions are possible under some condtions at high supersonic speeds. These reductions are relatively independent of aspect ratio for the rectangular wings but depend considerably on aspec ratio for the delta wings; the smaller aspect ratios show the larger drag reductions. Calculations of the spanwise distribution of drag are included to compare further the effect of a base on the drag fro different aspect ratios.
