Application of Spring Tabs to Elevator Controls

Description: Equations are presented for calculating the stick-force characteristics obtained with a spring-tab type of elevator control. The main problems encountered in the design of a satisfactory elevator spring tab are to provide stick forces in the desired range, to maintain the force per g sufficiently constant throughout the speed range, to avoid undesirable "feel" of the control in ground handling or in flight at low airspeeds, and to prevent flutter. Examples are presented to show the design featu… more

Experiments on Drag of Revolving Disks, Cylinders, and Streamline Rods at High Speeds

Description: An experimental investigation concerned primarily with the extension of test data on the drag of revolving disks, cylinders, and streamline rods to high Mach numbers and Reynolds numbers is presented. A Mach number of 2.7 was reached for revolving rods with Freon 113 as the medium. The tests on disks extended to a Reynolds number of 7,000,000" (p. 367).
