The change with mass-flow ratio of the cowl pressure drag of normal-shock inlets at supersonic speeds

Description: Report presenting pressure-drag coefficients and the changes in these coefficients with mass-flow ratio, which have been measured in tests of six open-nose conical cowls at an angle of attack of 0 degrees. Testing occurred in the Ames 8 by 8-inch supersonic wind tunnel at a range of Mach numbers. Results regarding pressure distributions, change in cowl pressure drag with mass-flow ratio, cowl pressure drag at a given mass-flow ratio, and changes in cowl pressure drag with mass-flow ratio as a f… more

Rough draft of Technical Data Summary covering preparation of initial Mark IIIA plates by extrusion cladding

Description: This Technical Data Summary comprises the technical information that has been developed to date for the preparation by extrusion cladding of the outer plate of the contemplated Mark IIIA fuel plate bundle. The Mark IIIA fuel bundle is designed to produce plutonium at higher power levels than is possible with the Mark I or Mark VII assemblies. The Mark IIIA and Mark V designs are being developed concurrently for the same purpose. The information, however, on the Mark IIIA design is at present fa… more

Fabrication Techniques and Heat-Transfer Results for Cast-Cored Air-Cooled Turbine Blades

Description: Memorandum presenting an investigation to devise an air-cooled turbine blade which eliminated the difficulties encountered with brazing in air-cooled-blade fabrication. Techniques were developed for casting air-cooled blades with a large number of relatively small cooling passages near the airfoil surface; two such blades of HS-21 material were operated in a turbojet engine modified for air cooling. Results regarding the heat-transfer characteristics, stress and durability results, and evaluati… more

Investigation of the Use of Area Suction to Increase the Effectiveness of Trailing-Edge Flaps of Various Spans on a Wing of 45 Degree Sweepback and Aspect Ratio 6

Description: Report discusses the results of an investigation of a model of a wing of 45 degree sweepback and aspect ratio 6 to determine the aerodynamic characteristics and suction requirements for boundary-layer control by means of area suction applied to trailing-edge flaps. Various flap spans and flap deflections were tested. The measured values of the coefficients were compared to the calculated values.

Effect of fuels on screaming in 200-pound-thrust liquid-oxygen - fuel rocket engine

Description: Report presenting the tendencies of 14 different fuels and three fuel blends to produce high-frequency oscillatory combustion (screaming) in a 200-pound-thrust, water-cooled, liquid-oxygen-fuel rocket engine. The fuels, in order of increasing screaming tendency, were hydrazines, branched-chain paraffins, aromatics, and amines, and straight-chain paraffins. Results regarding screaming tendency and screaming amplitude are provided.
