An investigation of a large group of related airfoils was made in the N.A.C.A. variable-density wind tunnel at a large value of the Reynolds Number. The tests were made to provide data that may be directly employed for a rational choice of the most suitable airfoil section for a given application. The variation of the aerodynamic characteristics with variations in thickness and mean-line form were therefore systematically studied.
