Linearized lifting-surface theory for swept-back wings with slender plan forms /

The spanwise and chordwise distribution of loading, the lift, and the induced drag of a swept-back wing of slender plan form are developed by means of linearized lifting-surface theory. The results are applicable for all free-stream Mach numbers. The term slender implies that the ratio of the reduced span to over-all length of the wing is small.NACA TN No. 1992."December 1949."Includes bibliographical references.The spanwise and chordwise distribution of loading, the lift, and the induced drag of a swept-back wing of slender plan form are developed by means of linearized lifting-surface theory.
