SUMMARY
An investigation of a large group of related airfoilswas made in the N.A.C.A. variable-density wind tunnelat a large value of the Reynolds Number. The tests weremade to provide data that may be directly employed for arational choice of the most suitable airfoil section for agiven application. The variation of the aerodynamiccharacteristics with variations in thickness and mean-lineform were therefore systematically studied.
The related airfoil profiles for this investigation weredeveloped by combining certain profile thickness forms,obtained by varying the maximum thickness of a basicdistribution, with certain mean lines, obtained by varyingthe length and the position of the maximum mean-lineordinate. A number of values of these shape variableswere used to derive a family of airfoils. For the purposesof this investigation the construction and tests were limitedto 68 airfoils of this family. In addition to these, severalsupplementary airfoils have been, included in order tostudy the effects of certain other changes in the form of themean line and in the thickness distribution.
The results are presented in the standard ,graphic formrepresenting the airfoil characteristics for infinite aspectratio and for aspect ratio 6. A table is also given bymeans of which the important characteristics of all theairfoils may be conveniently compared. The variation ofthe aerodynamic characteristics with changes in shape isshown by additional curves and tables. A comparisonis made, where possible, with thin-airfoil theory, asummary of which is presented in an appendix.
INTRODUCTION
The forms of the airfoil sections that are in commonuse today are, directly or indirectly, the result ofinvestigations made at Gottingen of a large number ofairfoils. Previously, airfoils such as the R.A.F. 15and the U.S.A. 27, developed from airfoil profilesinvestigated in England, were widely used. All theseinvestigations, however, were made at low values ofthe Reynolds Number; therefore, the airfoils developedmay not be the optimum ones for full-scale application.More recently a number of airfoils have been tested inthe variable-density wind tunnel at values of theReynolds Number approaching those of flight (refer-
ence 1) but, with the exception of the M-series and aseries of propeller sections, the airfoils have not beensystematically derived in such a way that the resultscould be satisfactorily correlated.
The design of an efficient airplane entails the carefulbalancing of many conflicting requirements. Thisstatement is particularly true of the choice of the wing.Without a knowledge of the variations of the aerody-namic characteristics of the airfoil sections with thevariations of shape that affect the weight of the struc-ture, the designer cannot reach a satisfactory balancebetween the many conflicting requirements.
The purpose of the investigation reported herein wasto obtain the characteristics at a large value of theReynolds Number of a wide variety of related airfoils.The benefits of such a systematic investigation areevident. The results will greatly facilitate the choiceof the most satisfactory airfoil for a given applicationand should eliminate much routine airfoil testing.Finally, because the results may be correlated toindicate the trends of the aerodynamic characteristicswith changes of shape, they may point the way to thedesign of new shapes having better characteristics.
Airfoil profiles may be considered as made up of cer-tain profile-thickness forms disposed about certainmean lines. The major shape variables then becometwo, the thickness form and the mean-line form. Thethickness form is of particular importance from astructural standpoint. On the other hand, the form ofthe mean line determines almost independently someof the most important aerodynamic properties of theairfoil section, e.g., the angle of zero lift and thepitching-moment characteristics.
The related airfoil profiles for this investigation werederived by changing systematically these shape vari-ables. The symmetrical profiles were defined in termsof a basic thickness variation, symmetrical airfoils ofvarying thickness being obtained by the applicationof factors to the basic ordinates. The cambered pro-files were then developed by combining these thicknessforms with various mean lines. The mean lines wereobtained by varying the camber and by varying theshape of the mean line to alter the position of themaximum mean-line ordinate. The maximum ordinate

of the mean line 2s referred to throughout this report as thecamber of the airfoil and the position of the maximumordinate of the mean line as the position of the camber.An airfoil, produced as described above, is designated bya number of four digits: the first indicates the camber inpercent of the chord; the second, the position of the camberin tenths of the chord from the leading edge; and the lasttwo, the maximum thickness in percent of the chord.
Thus the N.A.C.A. 2315 airfoil has a maximum camberof 2 percent of the chord at a position 0.3 of the chordfrom the leading edge, and a maximum thickness of 15percent of the chord; the N.A.C.A. 0012 airfoil is asymmetrical airfoil having a maximum thickness of 12percent of the chord.
In addition to the systematic series of airfoils,several supplementary airfoils have been included inorder to study the effects of a few changes in the formof the mean line and in the thickness distribution.
Preliminary results which have been published in-
clude those for 12 symmetrical N.A.C.A. airfoils, the00 series (reference 2) and other sections having differ-ent nose shapes (reference 3); and those for 42 cam-
bered airfoils, the 43 and 63 series (reference 4), the 45and 65 series (reference 5), the 44 and 64 series (refer-
ence 6), and the 24 series (reference 7).
If the chord is taken along the x axis from 0 to 1,the ordinates y are given by an equation of the form
f y = ad ^x + ax + a2x2 + a3x' + a4x4The equation was adjusted to give the desired shapeby imposing the following conditions to determine theconstants:
(1) Maximum ordinate 0.1 at 0.3 chord
x=0.3 y=0.1dy/dx = 0
(2) Ordinate at trailing edge
x=1 y=0.002
(3) Trailing-edge angle
x=1
dy/dx= —0.234(4) Nose shape
X=0.1 y = 0.078
The following equation satisfying approximately theabove-mentioned conditions represents a profile havinga thickness of approximately 20 percent of the chord.

DESCRIPTION OF AIRFOILS
Well-known airfoils of a certain class including theGottingen 398 and the Clark Y, which have proved tobe efficient, are nearly alike when -their camber isremoved (mean line straightened) and they are reducedto the same maximum thickness. A thickness variationsimilar to that of these airfoils was therefore chosen forthe development of the N.A.C.A. airfoils. An equationdefining the shape was used as a method of producingfair profiles.
This equation was taken to define the basic section.The basic profile and a table of ordinates are given in
figure 1. Points obtained by removing the camberfrom the Gottingen 398 and the Clark Y sections, andapplying a factor to the ordinates of the resultingthickness curves to bring them to the same maximumthickness, are plotted on the above figure for com-parison. Sections having any desired maximum thick-ness were obtained by multiplying the basic ordinates
by the proper factor; that is
±y,=6- t (0.29690.1/x-0.12600x-0.35160x2
+0,28430e-0.10150x')

When the mean lines of certain airfoils in commonuse were reduced to the same maximum ordinate andcompared it was found that their shapes were quitedifferent. It was observed, however, that the rangeof shapes could be well covered by assuming somesimple shape and varying the maximum ordinate andits position along the chord. The mean line was,therefore, arbitrarily defined by two parabolic equa-tions of the form
yo= be+ b ix+ b2 X2
where the leading end of the mean line is at the originand the trailing end is on the x axis at x=1. Thevalues of the constants for both equations were then
expressed in terms of the above variables; namely,(1) Mean-line extremities
X=0 y^=0
X=1 y'=0
(2) Maximum ordinate of mean line
x=p (position of maximum ordinate)
and
yr=(1 p)2 [(1-2P)+2Px-el
(aft of maximum ordinate)
The method of combining the thickness forms withthe mean-line forms is best described by means of thediagram in figure 2. The line joining the extremitiesof the mean line is chosen as the chord. Referring tothe diagram, the ordinate yt of the thickness form ismeasured along the perpendicular to the mean line
from a point on the mean line at the station along thechord corresponding to the value of x for which yt
was'computed. The resulting upper and lower surfacepoints are then designated: -
Stations x„ and x,Ordinates y„ and yt
where the subscripts u and l refer to upper and lowersurfaces, respectively. In addition to these symbols,the symbol 0 is employed to designate the angle be-tween the tangent to the mean line and the x axis.This angle is given by

REPORT NATIONAL ADVISORY COMMITTEE FOR AERONAUTICS
A family of related airfoils was derived in the mannerdescribed. Seven values of the maximum thickness,0.06, 0.09, 0.12, 0.15, 0.18, 0.21, and 0.25; four valuesof the camber, 0.00, 0.02, 0.04, and 0.06; and six valuesof the position of the camber, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, 0.5, 0.6, and0.7 were used to derive the related sections of this
family. The profiles of the airfoils derived are shown
collectively in figure 3.For the purposes of this investigation the construc-
tion and tests were limited to 68 of the airfoils. Tablesof ordinates at the standard stations are given in the
figures presenting the aerodynamic characteristics.These ordinates were obtained graphically from thecomputed ordinates for all but the symmetrical sec-
models, which are made of duralumin, have a chordof 5 inches and a span of 30 inches. They were con-structed from the computed ordinates by the methoddescribed in reference 8.
Routine measurements of lift, drag, and pitchingmoment about a point on the chord one quarter of thechord behind its forward end were made at a ReynoldsNumber of approximately 3,000,000 (tank pressure,approximately 20 atmospheres). Groups of airfoilswere first tested to study the variations with thickness,each group containing airfoils of different thicknesses
but having the same mean line. Finally, all airfoilshaving a thickness of 12 percent of the chord were

tions. Two sets of trailing-edge ordinates are given.Those inclosed by parentheses, which are given tofacilitate construction, represent ordinates to which
the surfaces are faired. In the construction of the
models the trailing edges were rounded off.Three groups of supplementary airfoils were also
constructed and tested. The derivation of these air-
foils will be considered later with the discussion.
