Tank investigation of the hydrodynamic characteristics of a 1/3.33-scale jet-powered dynamic model of the Martin XP6M-1 flying boat with a revised forebody planing bottom : TED No. NACA DE 385

Description: From Summary: "Hydrodynamic characteristics have been determined for a 1/13.33-scale jet-powered dynamic model of the Martin XP6M-1 flying boat with the forebody modified so as to increase the depth of step and the angle between the forebody and afterbody keels. Longitudinal stability during takeoff and landing in smooth water and resistance of the complete model in smooth water and in waves are presented."

Qualitative Results from a Flight Investigation to Determine Aileron Effectiveness of Two Rocket-Propelled 1/20-Scale Models of the MX-76 Missile

Description: "Free-flight tests of two rocket-propelled l/20-scale models of the Bell MX-776 missile have been conducted to obtain measurements of the aileron deflection required to counteract the induced rolling moments caused by combined angles of attack and sideslip and thus to determine whether the ailerons provided were capable of controlling the model at the attitudes produced by the test conditions. Inability to obtain reasonably steady-state conditions and superimposed high-frequency oscillations in… more

Aqueous Uranium Slurry Studies

Description: A summary of the laboratory development program on aqueous uranium slurry fuels for the Homogenous Reactor Project during the period April 1951 through March 1953 is presented. These investigations were devoted primarily to a study of the uranium oxides in aqueous suspensions. It was concluded that U(VI) was most likely to be the stable valence state in such slurry fuels and it was shown that β-UO3·H2O platelet crystals were the stable modification at 250°C. Very pure slurries of β-UO3·H2O pla… more
