Summary of Subsonic-Diffuser Data

Description: Memorandum presenting a review of the subsonic-diffuser data available in the literature, which is then reduced to certain appropriate performance coefficients and presented as functions of the significant geometric and flow variables. Results regarding total-pressure-loss factor, diffuser effectiveness, recovery of diffuser effectiveness in the tailpipe, inlet speed effects, exit flow distributions, boundary-layer control, and effects of distorted inlet velocity distribution are provided.

Elastic Solution for the Thermal Stresses in a Finite Solid Cylinder Fuel Element

Description: The heat generated by reactor fuel elements create thermal gradiants which cause thermal stresses of considerable magnitude. An elastic solution for these thermal stresses can be calculated with the equations given in Timoshenko's and Goodier's book (1) on elasticity if the fuel element is assumed infinite in length. An exact elastic solution for a finite cylindrical fuel element is given in this report in order to evaluate the effects of fuel element length on the thermal stresses and the effe… more

Experimental Hinge Moments on Freely Oscillating Flap-Type Control Surfaces

Description: Memorandum presenting oscillatory hinge-moment characteristics obtained from free-flight tests of two rocket-powered models equipped with a 60 degree sweptback clipped delta wing featuring an unbalanced, constant-chord, full-span trailing-edge control. One aircraft had a control with a sharp trailing edge, and the other had a trailing-edge thickness equal to 1/2 the thickness at the hinge line. Results regarding control pulsing systems, control damping, and control restoring moments are provide… more

Thermodynamic properties of products of combustion of hydrogen with air for temperatures of 600 to 4400 R

Description: Thermodynamic properties of hydrogen and its products of combustion with air are tabulated in a form convenient for use in cycle analysis and design of turbojet engines. Only low pressures are considered, and the effects of dissociation are ignored. Several thermodynamic processes are analyzed, and their analysis is illustrated by numerical example.

The Effects of the Addition of Small Fuselage-Mounted Fins on the Static Directional Stability Characteristics of a Model of a 45 Degree Swept-Wing Airplane at Angles of Attack up to 15.3 degrees at a Mach Number of 2.01

Description: Tests have been made in the Langley 4- by 4-foot supersonic pressure tunnel at a Mach number of 2.01 to determine the effects of the addition of four small fuselage-mounted cruciform fins on the directional characteristics of a 45 deg swept-wing airplane model at angles of attack up to 15.3 deg and angles of sideslip up to about 16 deg. The results showed that the addition of the four cruciform fins to the model increased the directional stability substantially at the highest angle of attack an… more
