Rectangular Supercritical Wing Results: α = 4°, unforced system Sept 11, 2013 JH

Mach 0.825, Re_c = 4M, Test medium: R-12

The results for the 4° mean-angle-of-attack, unforced system are shown on this page. Unforced system data is often referred to as the "steady" or "static" results.  

The principal comparison quantities generated from post-processing the computational outputs are the pressure coefficient distributions. Other quantities calculated include the integrated force (lift & drag) and moment (pitching moment) coefficients.

The legend or key for the plots is shown at the left of the table. Note that the legend changes for each analysis/test condition. (i.e. it does not apply to the results on other pages.)
