Some Effects of Sweep and Aspect Ratio on the Transonic Flutter Characteristics of a Series of Thin Cantilever Wings Having a Taper Ratio of 0.6

An investigation of the flutter characteristics of a series of thin cantilever wings having taper ratios of 0.6 was conducted in the Langley transonic blowdown tunnel at Mach numbers between 0.76 and 1.42. The angle of sweepback was varied from 0 degrees to 60 degrees on wings of aspect ratio 4, and the aspect ratio was varied from 2.4 to 6.4 on wings with 45 degrees of sweepback. The results are presented as ratios between the experimental flutter speeds and the reference flutter speeds calculated on the basis of incompressible two-dimensional flow. These ratios, designated the flutter-speed ratios, are given as functions of Mach number for the various wings. The flutter-speed ratios were characterized, in most cases, by values near 1.0 at subsonic speeds with large increases in the speed ratios in the range of supersonic speeds investigated. Increasing the sweep effected increases in the flutter-speed ratios between 0 degrees and 30 degrees followed by progressive reductions of the speed ratios to nearly 1.0 as the sweep was increased from 30 degrees to 60 degrees. Reducing the aspect ratio from 6.4 to 2.4 resulted in progressively larger values of the flutter-speed ratios throughout the Mach number range investigated.
