Experimental Investigation of the Transonic and Supersonic Flutter Characteristics of the Upper and Lower Vertical Tails of an Air-to-Ground Missile

Description: "Flutter models of the upper and lower vertical tails of an air-to-ground missile have been tested in the Mach number range from 0.5 to 3.0. It was found that the upper surface exhibited more or less conventional flutter behavior throughout the Mach number range, whereas the lower surface experienced a sudden change in flutter mode at a Mach number of about 1.18. This change in flutter mode was accompanied by a decrease of about 50 percent in the density required for flutter to occur" (p. 1).

Results of an investigation at high subsonic speeds to determine lateral-control and hinge-moment characteristics of a spoiler-slot-deflector configuration on a 35 degree sweptback wing

Description: Report presenting an investigation in the high speed 7- by 10-foot tunnel through a range of Mach numbers to determine the lateral-control and hinge-moment characteristics of a spoiler-slot-deflector configuration on a semispan 35 degree sweptback-wing model. The results indicated that the spoiler-slot-deflector configuration with the ratio of deflector projection to spoiler projection increasing with increasing control projection has good rolling-moment effectiveness throughout the angle of at… more

Static Longitudinal and Lateral Stability Parameters of Three Flared-Skirt Two-Stage Missile Configurations at a Mach Number of 6.86

Description: Memorandum presenting an investigation to determine the static longitudinal and lateral stability of three variations of a flared-skirt-type two-stage missile configuration with three different nose shapes, body cross sections, and skin geometry in the 11-inch hypersonic tunnel. The results of the investigation show that the models with rounded triangular cross sections have a variation of lift, drag, lift-drag ratio, and stability with roll angle.

Steam Slip and Burnout in Bulk Boiling Systems

Description: In concurrent flow of two phase mixtures there exists a velocity difference between the vapor and liquid phases. This difference in velocity is known as the slip velocity. The prediction of slip is the subject of Part I. In boiling systems there is some heat transfer rate at which nucleste boiling becomes unstable. At this point the separate bubbles coalesce forming an insulating vapor film on the heat transfer surface resulting in the destruction, or burnout, of the heater. The prediction of t… more

Operating Instructions for the UNIVAC Program OCUSOL-A : a Modification of the Eyewash Program

Description: The Eyewash program, written by James H. Alexander and Nancy D. Given, provides solutions of reactor criticality problems in spherical geometry by means of the group diffusion method. It employs thirty lethargy groups (plus one thermal group) in nine regions. The input consists principally of specifying the geometrical scaling factor, boundaries and compositions of the various regions, and temperature level. The output includes the value of vc that would render the system critical, the relative… more

HRT Letdown Valves

Description: To supply information about the several letdown valves which have been in HRT service, a typical valve plug examined by the Metallurgy Section confirms the belief that chemical attack on the Stellite #6 was occurring. It appears that most of the corrosion was due to rinse solutions, since this phenomenon has not been noted on letdown valves in the HRT Mockup where over 90% of the operating time has been with UO2SO4 solutions.
