Low speed wind tunnel investigation of the flow about delta wing, oscillating in pitch to very high angle of attack

Six-component airload histories were obtained for models of aspect ratio 1, 1.5, and 2. Examples are given from data obtained over a range of 'reduced frequency' parameters from 0.01 to 0.08. They include the unsteady response of the leading-edge vortices, as evidenced both by the time-dependent airloads and motion pictures of smoke released from the leading edge and illuminated by a thin sheet of laser light.
