Evaluation of operating characteristics of a supersonic free-jet facility for full-scale ram-jet investigations

Description: From Summary: "A supersonic free-jet facility (Mach number 3) capable of accommodating full-scale ram-jet engines has been constructed and evaluated. A 24-inch circular nozzle produces a jet of sufficiently uniform velocity that a good simulation of the engine internal flow is obtained. An annular diffuser placed around the engine recovers part of the total pressure of the jet flow passing outside the engine so that the pressure ratios which must be imposed across the facility to start and main… more

Performance characteristics at Mach numbers to 2.0 of various types of side inlets mounted on fuselage of proposed supersonic airplane 4: rectangular cowl inlets with two-dimensional compression ramps

Description: Report presenting an experimental investigation to determine the performance of side inlets with external compression ramps and rectangular cowls mounted on the fuselage forebody of a proposed supersonic airplane. Results regarding supersonic Mach number range, subsonic Mach number of 0.63, and static or take-off conditions are provided.

The Structure of Turbulence in Fully Developed Pipe Flow

Description: "Measurements, principally with a hot-wire anemometer, were made in fully developed turbulent flow in a 10-inch pipe at speeds of approximately 10 and 100 feet per second. Emphasis was placed on turbulence and conditions near the wall. The results include relevant mean and statistical quantities, such as Reynolds stresses, triple correlations, turbulent dissipation, and energy spectra" (p. 1).

On Traveling Waves in Beams

Description: "The basic equations of Timoshenko for the motion of vibrating nonuniform beams, which allow for effects of transverse shear deformation and rotary inertia, are presented in several forms, including one in which the equations are written in the directions of the characteristics. The propagation of discontinuities in moment and shear, as governed by these equations, is discussed. Numerical traveling-wave solutions are obtained for some elementary problems of finite uniform beams for which the pr… more
