Summary:

Two-dimensional aerodynamic characteristics are presented for 15 NACA airfoils at seven Reynolds numbers from 9,000,000 to 700,000. The airfoils investigated include 10 NACA 6-series sections and 5 sections of the NACA 4-digit and 5-digit series. The data show the effects of systematic variations in airfoil thickness, thickness distribution, and camber upon the aerodynamic characteristics of each of the seven Reynolds numbers. The response of the airfoils to split flaps and the effects of surface condition are also shown at various Reynolds numbers.
