A combined computational/experimental investigation has been conducted to determine the time-averaged interactive performance of a propeller and wing in tractor configuration at Mach 0.1 and Re=470,000, based on a wind tunnel model wing chord of 8 in. Wing angle-of-attack was varied from 0 to +13 deg, and propeller advance ratio ranged from 2.4 (windmilling) to 1.1 (maximum power). Both a semiempirical model and a vortex lattice simulation were used in the computational analysis. Good agreement has been obtained between theory and experiment.
