Experimental Results From a Test in Rough Air at High Subsonic Speeds of a Tailless Rocket Model Having Cruciform Triangular Wings, and a Note on the Calculation of Mean Square Loads of Aircraft in Continuous Rough Air

Description: Report presenting results of testing of a rocket model with cruciform 60 degree triangular wings in continuous rough air at transonic speeds. The wing arrangement tested appears to be useful for improving the accuracy of the results. Results regarding the characteristics of the rough-air response, variation of acceleration with Mach number, and evaluation of the cruciform arrangement are provided.

Transonic Investigation of the Effectiveness and Loading Characteristics of a Flap-Type Aileron With and Without Paddle Balances of an Unswept-Wing-Fuselage Model

Description: Report presenting an investigation of the effectiveness and loading characteristics of an aileron mounted on an unswept-wing-body configuration. A flap-type outboard aileron was tested with and without paddle balances at a range of Mach numbers and angles of attack. The aileron effectiveness, hinge-moment parameter, and effect of the paddle balances are presented.

Bibliography of ORNL-BSF Reports Pertinent to Swimming Pool Type Reactor Design (Revised)

Description: Much of the shielding work carried out with the Bulk Shielding Reactor (BSR) has yielded data of particular interest for the design of swimming pool type reactors, However, it is often difficult for a reactor designer to locate such data since it may be recorded in a report primarily concerned with shielding problems. Therefore, this memorandum presents a bibliography of reports from the Bulk Shielding Facility arranged according to the application of data to the various aspects of reactor desi… more

Reduction of wave drag of wing-body combinations at supersonic speeds through body distortions

Description: Report presenting some methods providing sizable reductions in drag for aspect ratios of current interest. The drag savings are maintained over a wide Mach number range, particularly for low-aspect-ratio wings. A significant part of the drag reduction is found to be due to the nonaxisymmetric distortion.

Flight Investigation of the Effect of a Propulsive Jet Positioned According to the Transonic Area Rule on the Drag Coefficients of a Single-Engine Delta-Wing Configuration at Mach Numbers From 0.83 to 1.36

Description: Report discussing testing of a 60 degree delta-wing configuration with an engine located in a pod contiguous to the underside of the fuselage to determine the effects of the flow field and drag, lift, and longitudinal stability. Jet-on drag coefficients were found to be lower than jet-off drag coefficients at transonic speeds. The transonic-area-rule concept was also found to be viable for predicting jet effects on drag for this type of configuration.
