Hi all,
Where can I find a graph showing angle of attack vs. lift coefficient for a NACA 0016 airfoil?
Thanks

This what're looking for?

Thanks for the link, but unfortunately it doesn't have a angle of attack vs. lift coefficient for the graph.
Thanks anyway

One source is "Theory of Wing Sections" by Abbott and VonDoenhoff

What you want will be in Appendix IV. It is a Dover book and is only about $15.00.

I don't know of any online sources off-hand

For Christ-sake man! You are at GeorgiaTech! They have an excellent aero engineering program and no doubt an excellent library system.

Any aerodynamics reference book should have a slurry of plots of interest.

And I doubt a school like GeorgiaTech is lacking in those. Just ask your librarian or your professor to find which reference book best suits your needs.

I seem to recall seeing some PDF copies of 1910's on NCAC reports on a NASA website somewhere. But for the life of me I can't remember where.

But there where some reports of Air-tunnel testing of airfoils on it.

I'm sorry, but I agree with Flybyguy on this one....If I had a question like this, my first source would be the AE department at school (and I'm an AE major as well). Actually, my first source would be the first aerospace engineering book I ever purchased, which was by Anderson (I think it was Fundamentals of Flight, or something like that). It had a bunch of CL graphs in the back, and while I don't know if the 0016 was among them, it very well might have been.

No offense intended, but you have to use the resources that a university affords you. A.net, while good for some questions, is not the one-stop for all college folk.

Back at the University of Illinois, we used a program called xfoil to get airfoil data. Its a bit cumbersome to use since u have to load an airfoil data file, then for each run (you can vary the AOA), you will need to record the data into excel or some other spread sheet file. THen you can make your own Cl-alpha curves. It is a UNIX based program so watch out. Very handy tool once you figure it out. Ask your lowspeed aerodynamics prof, he should know about it. Mark Drella from MIT made the program if i do recall. He and our prof at UIUC are some of the top aerodynamisists in the world.

If it was said by us, then it must be true.

Xfoil can create all of the NACA 4-digit and 5-digit airfoils internally.

No, there is a Windows version available for free on the MIT website.

Yes, Mark wrote it, but his last name is Drela, not Drella. He is a prof at MIT.

For Christ-sake man! You are at GeorgiaTech! They have an excellent aero engineering program and no doubt an excellent library system.

Any aerodynamics reference book should have a slurry of plots of interest.

And I doubt a school like GeorgiaTech is lacking in those. Just ask your librarian or your professor to find which reference book best suits your needs.

I didn't even notice that I would have told him to stop by my office I have the data there, of course it wouldn't do a whole lot of good right now as I am out of town on travel for a few days.
