Aerodynamic Characteristics of a Large-Scale Model with a High Disk-Loading Lifting Fan Mounted in the FuselageAn investigation was conducted to determine the longitudinal characteristics during low-speed flight of a large-scale VTOL airplane model with a direct lifting fan enclosed in the fuselage. The model had a shoulder-mounted unswept wing of aspect ratio 5. The effect on longitudinal characteristics of fan operation, propulsion by means of deflecting the fan efflux, trailing-edge flap deflection, and horizontal-tail height were studied.
