A program for the wind tunnel development of underwing leading-edge vortex generators on an NASA supercritical-wing research airplane model was conducted in the Langley 8-foot transonic pressure tunnel at Mach numbers from 0.25 to 0.99. The effects on the longitudinal aerodynamic characteristics of vortex-generator wing semispan location, distance from wing leading edge, leading-edge sweep angle, toe-in angle, and span are presented. The effects of the vortex generators on the lateral-directional aerodynamic characteristics of the model for a sideslip angle of 5 deg are included.
