Summary report on the induction of water to the inlet air as a means of internal cooling in aircraft-engine cylinders

Description: Report presenting investigations of a full-scale air-cooled aircraft-engine cylinder of 202-cubic-inch displacement to determine the effects of internal cooling by water induction on the maximum permissible power and output of an internal-combustion engine. Results regarding the maximum permissible engine performance, engine temperatures, and constant inlet-air pressure investigations are provided.

Poisoning and Production in a Power Plant

Description: The yield of 49, the efficiency of production of 49, and poisoning in a power plant are discussed. Only the crudest of estimates of the poisoning are possible: these indicated that production will probably not be hampered by poisoning. In this case the yield of 49 could be as high as 3 kg/ton but only about 2 kg/ton is compatible with a fairly high efficiency. In the case that production is stopped by poisoning, smaller yields, proportional to the tolerable loss in k, are obtained. In this case… more
