About this book

Some experiments on autorotation of an airfoil

Author: Ober, Shatswel

Year: 1929

These experiments show that the rate of auto rotation of a monoplane airfoil is reduced by sweepback, ceasing entirely when the sweepback is 30 degrees. In addition a very serious increase in rate and range of auto rotation with yaw is shown.
