The Reduction of Uranium Trioxide by Ethyl Alcohol

Description: Abstract: The effect of temperature upon the rate of reduction of uranium trioxide by ethyl alcohol has been investigated, and a comparison of the reactivity of the dioxide produced at various temperatures has been made. The percent of carbon in the end product has been studied with respect to both temperature of reduction and length of exposure to alcohol. Optimum conditions for the reduction have been suggested.

Effects of Wing Flaps and Wing Duct Inlet on the Lift and Stalling Characteristics of a 1/4-Scale Partial-Span Model of the Republic XF-12 Airplane in the Langley 19-Foot Pressure Tunnel

Description: From Summary: "An investigation was conducted in the Langley 19-foot pressure tunnel to determine the lift, drag, pitching-moment and stalling characteristics of a 1/4 -scale partial-span model of the left wing of the Republic XF-12 airplane. The effects of a duct inlet, located between the nacelles at the leading edge of the wing, on those characteristics were also investigated. The Reynolds numbers for the investigation covered a range from 4,500,000 to 8,600,000. The results of the investiga… more
