Chapter 12, Problem 12.3P

Consider a diamond-wedge airfoil such as shown in Figure 9.26, with a half-angle ε = 1 0 ° . The airfoil is at an angle of attack α = 15 ° to a Mach 3 free stream. Using linear theory, calculate the lift and wave-drag coefficients for the airfoil. Compare these approximate results with those from the exact shock-expansion theory obtained in Problem 9.14.

4. For the 2D symmetric airfoil with a diamond profile A = 5° as shown in figure, compute the lift and drag coefficients in the supersonic flow through air (y = 1.4) and free stream mach number M = 2 %3D with AOA a = 10°. (2 (3
Consider the same Lockheed F-104 supersonic fighter shown, with the same flight conditions of Mach 2 at an altitude of 11 km. For these conditions the wing angle of attack is α = 0.035 rad = 1.98◦. Assume the chord length of the airfoil is 2.2 m, which is approximately the mean chord length for the wing. Also, assume fully turbulent flow over the airfoil. Calculate: (a) the airfoil skin friction drag coefficient, and (b) the airfoil wave-drag coefficient. Compare the two values of drag.
The lift curve for the 4 digit NACA 2421 airfoil is shown in the Figure. -Consider a wing with AR = 12, no sweep, and airplane flies at the Mach number equal to 0.65. The Oswald efficiency span number ?1 = 0.95 Calculate the lift slope for the finite wing. Clearly show the formula and explanations in the solution.
