About this book

NASA Technical Reports Server (NTRS) 19930091228: Complete Study of Longitudinal Oscillation of a VE-7 Airplane

Author: NASA Technical Reports Server (NTRS)

Year: 1924

This investigation was carried out by the National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics at Langley Field in order to study as closely as possible the behavior of an airplane when it was making a longitudinal oscillation. The airspeed, the altitude, the angle with the horizon and the angle of attack were all recorded simultaneously and the resulting curves plotted to the same time scale. The results show that all the curves are very close to damped sine curves, with the curves for height and angle of attack in phase, that for angle with the horizon leading them by 18 per cent and that for path angle leading them by 25 per cent.
