Effects of Various Shape Fillets on a 76/40 Double Delta Wing from Mach 0.18 to 0.7

Abstract

A 76 deg/4O deg sweep double delta wing was tested in the NASA Langley ?x 10 ft HST from Mach 0.18 to 0.7 and from -4 deg to 42 deg angle of attack. The double delta wing strake/wing juncture was modified with three fillet shapes: linear, diamond, and parabolic. The linear and diamond fillet size varied 0.5%, 1% and 2.5% (left and right fillet area / wing planform area). The parabolic fillet size varied 0.5% and 1% in size.
