目前一架F-16XL研究机已经被改装成一架超音速层流控制概念研究机。该机的左机翼被装上了一个带有很大的吸气表面翼套。这项试验将对美国高速民用运输机(HSCT),即下一代超音速民用飞机的研制具有重要的意义。装上新翼套的F-16XL已完成了首次飞行。为其制订的一系列试验计划将要验证仅仅使用目前的吸气技术是否能在超音速飞行下维持机翼表面的大部分区域为层流区,从理论上讲,通过对机翼前段翼型外形的正确设计,组 At present, one F-16XL research machine has been converted into a supersonic laminar flow control concept research machine. The aircraft’s left wing is fitted with a large suction surface wing sleeve. This test will be of great significance to the development of HSCT, the next generation of supersonic civil aircraft. F-16XL fitted with new wing set has completed its first flight. A series of pilot programs will be developed to verify that using only the current aspiration technology can maintain most of the wing surface in the supersonic flight as the laminar flow zone. Theoretically, The correct design, group
