Wind Tunnel Investigation at Low Speed of Aerodynamic Characteristics of Army Chemical Corps Model E-112 Bomblets with Span Chord Ratio of 2 - 1

Description: "An experimental investigation has been made in the Langley stability tunnel to determine the aerodynamic characteristics of the Army Chemical Corps model E-112 bomblets with span-chord ratio of 2:1. A detailed analysis has not been made; however, the results showed that all the models were spirally unstable and that a large gap between the model tips and end plates tended to reduce the instability" (p. 1).

An Investigation of Ejection Releases of Submerged and Semisubmerged Dynamically Scaled Stores From a Simulated Bomb Bay of a Fighter-Bomber Airplane at Supersonic Speeds

Description: Report presenting an investigation of the release characteristics of several dynamically scaled store shapes from a simulated bomb bay at Mach numbers of 1.39, 1.60, and 1.98. A streamline store, a blunt-nose store with wedge-type fins of low aspect ratio, and a bluff store with a skirt were tested. Results regarding pitching motions, ejection velocity, effect of increase in altitude, and addition of plate or spike to the nose of the store are provided.

Investigation of the Ejection Release of Several Dynamically Scaled Bluff Internal Stores at Mach Numbers of 0.8, 1.39, and 1.98

Description: Report presenting an investigation to determine flight behavior after ejection from a bomb bay of several dynamically scaled bluff internal stores for a range of Mach numbers and altitudes. The trajectories of all of the stores were smooth, but the pitching motions of the stores were greatly affected by the close vicinity of the bomb bay. Types of stores explored included WADC stores, flared-cylinder stores, and cylindrical stores.

Experimental Study and Analysis of Loading and Pressure Distributions on Delta Wings Due to Thickness and to Angle of Attack at Supersonic Speeds

Description: Memorandum presenting the aerodynamic loading on delta wings at supersonic speeds, which was studied primarily to determine the coupling and nonlinear interference effects between the pressures due to angle of attack and due to thickness. Results regarding span loadings and lift coefficients, pressure distributions due to thickness, pressure distributions due to angle of attack and interference pressures produced by thickness, and Reynolds number effects are provided.
