The Origin and Distribution of Supsonic Store Interference From Measurement of Individual Forces on Several Wing-Fuselage-Store Configurations 5 - Swept-Wing Heavy-Bomber Configuration With Large Store (Nacelle). Mach Number, 2.01

Description: Memorandum presenting a supersonic wind-tunnel investigation of store interference performed in the 4- by 4-foot supersonic pressure tunnel at a Mach number of 2.01 in which separate forces on a store and a swept-wing-fuselage combination were measured. The report presents data on a configuration which simulated a heavy-bomber airplane with a large external store.

Application of Tchebichef form of harmonic analysis to the calculation of zero-lift wave drag of wing-body-tail combinations

Description: Report presenting an improvement of the computing procedure of NACA RM A53H17 using a new procedure of harmonic analysis using Tchebichef polynominals. The two main improvements are the simplification of computing procedures and the provision for a comprehensive check solution which includes a direct check of how well the number of harmonics used represent the area-distribution curve.

The Origin and Distribution of Supersonic Store Interference From Measurement of Individual Forces on Several Wing-Fuselage-Store Configurations 5: Swept-Wing Heavy-Bomber Configuration With Large Store (Nacelle). Mach Number 2.01

Description: Report presenting an investigation of store interference in the supersonic pressure tunnel at Mach number 2.01 in which separate forces on a store and a swept-wing-fuselage combination were measured. The interference effects measured at that Mach number were similar to those reported previously at Mach number 1.61. Results regarding store drag, store lift, store side force, store pitching moment and yawing moment, wing-fuselage drag, wing-fuselage lift, total drag, total lift, and wing-fuselage… more

Force, moment, and pressure-distribution characteristics of rectangular wings at high angles of attack and supersonic speeds

Description: Report presenting experimental force and moment data for rectangular wings of aspect ratios 1, 2, and 3 at a range of angles of attack and Mach numbers. Shock-expansion theory was found to adequately predict the span load distribution in the two-dimensional flow region below the shock-detachment angle. Results regarding basic physical data, the attached regime, and the detached regime are provided.

A study of a symmetrical, circular, internal, compression inlet

Description: From Summary: "A preliminary experimental study of symmetrical, circular, internal compression inlets has shown that they attain pressure recovery equal to that measured by conical nose inlets at Mach numbers up to about 2.3. This pressure recovery was obtained with configurations having essentially zero pressure drag of the external surfaces."

The Brazing of Aluminum Bronze to Inconel

Description: The requirements of an atmosphere for the brazing of Al bronze to Inconel were considered on a thermodynamic basis. It was demonstrated that brazing was not possible in a vacuum or inert gas and is improbable in dry H/sub 2/. Attempts to braze in dry H/sub 2/ prove unsuccessful as predicted, except at isolated spots where filler metal had been preplaced. Modification of the plastic binder for holding the filler metal so as to remove Oi and introduce halogen gave no improvement. Negative results… more

Development test 105-623A: Relation between hand and flow seating of slug charges as they affect slug rupture rates

Description: A large portion of the slug failures which occurred during 1955 were of the ``hot-spot`` type. Observation of these failures has shown them to be the result of intergranular corrosion attack of the aluminum jacket. Intergranular corrosion is presently considered to occur in water temperature above 150 C; a flow disturbance which causes non-uniform coolant temperatures is suspected as the cause of failure.The present of a cocked slug, or a bowed slug column, might provide this flow disturbance. … more

CERIUM AND PLUTONIUM DIOXIDE--NOTES ON REDUCTION TO MASSIVE METAL

Description: In reduction reactions of CeO/sub 2/, with calcium and a CaCl/sub 2/ flux, the use of vibrational energy was shown to have a marked effect on the yield of coalesced metal. Buttons of 40 to 50% theoretical yield were obtained from the vibrated reductions. As the flux concentration is decreased, the slag becomes more viscous containing undissolved CaO. The undissolved CaO present prevents the metal from completely coalescing, but the metal can be recovered from the slag and coalesced under CaCl/s… more

Evaluation of Gold and Gold Alloy Bearings in Pump Process

Description: The use of process-solution-lubricated sleeve bearings in rotating equipment is quite extensive at H.A.P.O. The difficulty or impossibility of providing contact maintenance, the poor lubricating qualities and corrosive natures of most of the process solutions, in addition to radioactivity, impose stringent restrictions on the selection of materials of construction of these bearings. Prototypical evaluation of materials indicating suitable characteristics in preliminary testing, both in the Corr… more
