Preliminary investigation of molybdenum disulfide-air-mist lubrication for roller bearings operating to DN values of 1 x 10(exp 6) and ball bearings operating to temperatures of 1000 degrees F

Description: The effectiveness of molybdenum disulfide MoS2 as a bearing lubricant was determined at high temperature and at high speeds. A 1-inch-bore ball bearing operated at temperatures to 1000 F, a speed of 1725 rpm, and a thrust load of 20 pounds when lubricated only with MoS2-air mist. A 75-millimeter-bore cageless roller bearing, provided with a MoS2-syrup coating before operation, operated at DN values to 1 x 10(exp 6) with a load of 368 pounds.

Flight Determination of Drag and Pressure Recovery of a Nose Inlet of Parabolic Profile at Mach Numbers From 0.8 to 1.7

Description: Report discussing the drag and pressure recovery of a model with a nose inlet with a parabolic arc at zero angle of attack. External drag coefficient and total-pressure recovery at the end of the diffuser were measured at a range of Mach numbers and mass-flow ratios.
