...Therefore, delta wings, which are obtained by combining a sharp sweep angle with a small aspect ratio, are often used in supersonic aircraft (Figure 6-f). The aerodynamic center of a delta wing is about 50% of the aerodynamic mean chord (about 2/3 from the front of the central chord) at both subsonic and supersonic speeds, and has the advantage of not moving much. On the other hand, one of the disadvantages of a delta wing is that it has a small aspect ratio, resulting in large induced drag. ... *Some of the terminology explanations that refer to "aerodynamic mean chord" are listed below.

…そこで鋭い後退角と小アスペクト比の組合せで得られる三角翼delta wing(デルタ翼ともいう)が,超音速機に多く用いられている(図6-f)。三角翼はその空力中心が,亜音速でも超音速でも空力平均翼弦の約50%(中央翼弦の前から約2/3)にあって,あまり動かないという利点もある。一方,三角翼の欠点の一つはアスペクト比が小さいので誘導抗力が大きいことである。… ※「空力平均翼弦」について言及している用語解説の一部を掲載しています。 出典|株式会社平凡社世界大百科事典 第2版について | 情報 |
