For example, the NACA 2412 airfoil has a maximum camber of 2% located 40% (0.4 chords) from the leading edge with a maximum thickness of 12% of the chord. The NACA 0015 airfoil is symmetrical, the 00 indicating that it has no camber. The 15 indicates that the airfoil has a 15% thickness to chord length ratio: it is 15% as thick as it is long.
The Bagaliante is constructed from wood and metal and is of pod-and-boom layout. [1]The 12.2 m (40.0 ft) span wing employs a Göttingen 535 airfoil at the wing root, transitioning to an NACA 4412 section at the wingtip.
Employs a NACA 4412 airfoil. [1] Bearhawk Bravo Improved model introduced at AirVenture in July 2016. The wing has a 12 in (30 cm) greater span and 5 sq ft (0.46 m 2) greater area and employs a Riblett 30-413.5 airfoil, which gives a 5 to 8 mph (8 to 13 km/h) higher top speed while retaining a low stall speed. The redesigned airframe also uses ...
NACA experience provided a model for World War II research, the postwar government laboratories, and NACA's successor, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA). NACA also participated in development of the first aircraft to fly to the "edge of space", North American's X-15. NACA airfoils are still used on modern aircraft.
The airfoil is a NACA laminar flow type of varying section over the span, starting at the wing root as a NACA 64(3)-618, becoming a NACA 64(3)-615 by mid-span and then a NACA 4412 at the tip. The wing is constructed from plywood and fiberglass and is responsible for the Annebula's performance increase from the Cherokee II's 23:1 glide ratio to ...
The left generator had failed after takeoff and the first officer had mistakenly isolated the right generator. ... Airfoil: root: NACA 23018; tip: NACA 4412 [53 ...
The Ferrari F40 sports car has "NACA style" side and hood scoops.. It is especially favored in racing car design. [4] [5] Sports cars featuring prominent NACA ducts include the Ferrari F40, the Lamborghini Countach, the 1996–2002 Dodge Viper, the 1971–1973 Ford Mustang, the 1973 Pontiac GTO, the 1979 Porsche 924 Turbo, the Maserati Biturbo, the Nissan S130, and the Porsche 911 GT2.
Airfoil: root: NACA 23016; tip: NACA 4412; Empty weight: 1,080 kg (2,381 lb) Max takeoff weight: 1,700 kg (3,748 lb) with under-wing weapons; Powerplant: 1 × Piaggio-built Lycoming GSO-480-B1B6 6-cylinder, air-cooled, horizontally opposed piston engine, 250 kW (340 hp) Propellers: 3-bladed Piaggio P1033-G4-AD/0691/245 constant-speed propeller ...
