Origin and Prevention of Crash Fires in Turbojet Aircraft

Description: "The tendency for the jet engine rotor to continue to rotate after crash presents the probability that crash-spilled combustibles suspended in the air or puddled on the ground at the engine inlet may be sucked into the engine. Studies with jet engines operating on a test stand and full-scale crashes of turbojet-powered airplanes showed that combustibles drawn into the engine in this way ignite explosively within the engine. Experiment showed that the gas flow through the engine is too rapid to … more

Internal performance of several auxiliary air inlets immersed in a turbulent boundary layer at Mach numbers of 1.3, 1.5, and 2.0

Description: Internal performance of normal-shock rectangular, circular, and scoop inlets and of external-compression inlets experimentally obtained with varying immersion in a turbulent boundary layer. Recoveries varied from about 95 percent of theoretical in the free stream to 80 percent with complete immersion, while the corresponding mass flows were usually above 95 percent of theoretical. Turning of the flow through 10 degrees caused losses in pressure recovery of 0.03 to 0.07. External compression did… more

Combustor performance of a 16-inch ram jet using gaseous hydrogen as fuel at Mach number 3.0

Description: An investigation was conducted in the NACA Lewis 10- by 10-foot supersonic wind tunnel to evaluate the performance of three burner configurations in a 16-inch ram jet with gaseous hydrogen as fuel. Data were obtained over a fuel-air-ratio range from 0.0030 to 0.0260 (stoichiometric = 0.0292) at a free-stream Mach number of 3.0 and 0 degree angle of attack. The exit nozzle-throat area ratios employed were 0.60 and 0.75.
