Sweeping of Fission Gases from Solutions of U and Plutonium

Description: Technical report describing two experiments performed to compare the amounts of fission gases swept out of UNH solution with those amounts swept out of PU solution under idential condiditons. The charge wire technique was used. The essential date and the results are given in tables in the report.

A general representation for axial-flow fans and turbines

Description: A general representation of fan and turbine arrangements on a single classification chart is presented that is made possible by a particular definition of the stage of an axial-flow fan or turbine. Several unconventional fan and turbine arrangements are indicated and the applications of these arrangements are discussed.

Measurement of Flying Qualities of a Douglas A-26B Airplane (AAF No. 41-39120) 2: Lateral and Directional Stability and Control Characteristics

Description: Report discussing testing of the Douglas A-26B to determine the lateral and directional stability and control characteristics. Information about the control-free lateral and directional oscillations, sideslip due to full aileron deflection, control-fixed and control-free directional stability, effective dihedral, side force due to sideslip, rudder control characteristics, variation of rudder and aileron force with speed, and response to abrupt aileron deflection are described.

Knock-Limited Performance of Six Aromatic Amines Blended With a Base Fuel in a Full-Scale Aircraft-Engine Cylinder

Description: Report discussing tests to determine the effect of 2-percent additions of six aromatic amines on the knock-limited performance of 28-R fuel. All of the aromatic amine blends increased the performance and power of the base fuel. Different blends performed better at different fuel-air ratios.

Correlation of the Characteristics of Single-Cylinder and Flight Engines in Tests of High-Performance Fuels in an Air-Cooled Engine 1 - Cooling Characteristics

Description: Variable charge-air flow, cooling-air pressure drop, and fuel-air ration investigations were conducted to determine the cooling characteristics of a full-scale air-cooled single cylinder on a CUE setup. The data are compared with similar data that were available for the same model multicylinder engine tested in flight in a four-engine airplane. The cylinder-head cooling correlations were the same for both the single-cylinder and the flight engine. The cooling correlations for the barrels differ… more
