Some Effects of Blade Trailing-Edge Thickness on Performance of a Single-Stage Axial-Flow Compressor

Description: A set of modified NACA 65-series blower blades designed for axial inlet velocity, high inlet Mach number, and high blade loading was investigated for trailing-edge thickness of 0.015, 0.030, and 0.045 inch to determine the effect of trailing-edge thickness on single-stage axial-flow-compressor performance. Trailing-edge thickness effects were small except at the highest tip speed investigated (915 ft/sec). Trailing-edge thickness up to 30 percent of maximum blade thickness were used without sac… more

Base pressures measured on several parabolic-arc bodies of revolution in free flight at Mach numbers from 0.8 to 1.4 and at large Reynolds numbers

Description: Report presenting base pressures measured on several fin-stabilized bodies of parabolic-arc profile in free flight at a range of Mach and Reynolds numbers. The bodies varied in length but had the same afterbody ratios. Results regarding base pressure coefficients, side pressure coefficients, effect of afterbody length, and drag are provided.
