Performance characteristics of hemispherical target-type thrust reversers

Description: Report presenting an investigation to determine the reverse-thrust performance of hemispherical target-type thrust reversers over a wide range of geometric variables. Several factors were found that increased the flow turn angle and reverse-thrust ratio, primarily the hemisphere diameter. Results regarding operating characteristics, relation of flow turn angle and reverse-thrust ratio, reverse-flow velocities and pressures along boattail, effect of boattail shape on reverse-thrust ratio, and mo… more

Effects of Inlet-Flow-Air Distortion on Steady-State Altitude Performance of an Axial-Flow Turbojet Engine

Description: Report presenting the effects of inlet-air-flow distortion on the steady-state performance of a current axial-flow turbojet engine studied in an NACA altitude test chamber at a range of altitudes and simulated Mach number of 0.8. Radial distortions of various shapes up to 22 percent of the average engine-inlet total pressure and circumferential distortions up to 26 percent were imposed. Results regarding propagation through the engine, compressor-interstage performance and stall, effects on com… more

Power and Temperature of Tbr Following Interruption of Normal Operation

Description: Calculations were performed to determine the behavior of the TBR under certain conditions involving interruption of normal operation. The situations considered are sudden stoppage of circulation in the core circuit, sudden cessation of heat removal in the heat exchanger, and circulating pump failure. The first two situations result in a rapid, hazardous temperature rise; no danger appears in the third condition. (D.E.B.)

Ideal temperature rise due to constant-pressure combustion of a JP-4 fuel

Description: The ideal temperature rise due to the constant-pressure combustion of a methylene (CH sub 2) fuel was calculated. CH sub 2 fuel closely approximates MIL-F-5624 grade JP-4 fuel presently used in most turbojet and ram-jet engines. Charts are presented from which the ideal temperature rise or the ideal quantity of fuel required to obtain a specified combustion temperature may be obtained for any flight condition likely to be encountered with turbojet or ram-jet engines using this fuel. The charts … more

Preliminary investigation of a conical spike inlet in combination with a vertical-wedge auxiliary inlet at Mach number 1.9

Description: Pressure-recovery characteristics of a nacelle-type-spike inlet in combination with a vertical-wedge auxiliary scoop are presented for a free-stream Mach number of 1.9 at zero angle of attack. The auxiliary scoop provided 17 percent additional air flow with a drop in critical pressure recovery from 0.86 to 0.81. However, in terms of inlet-engine matching, the pressure recovery of the undersized spike inlet operating at a specified corrected air flow increased with the scoop open, for example, f… more
