[Margaret McDonald advertising Cook Book bread]

Description: Photograph of Margaret McDonald holding up a loaf of Cook Book bread. She is wearing a dress, a belt, heels, and accessories. She is smiling and looking at the camera. Behind Margaret, there is a refrigerator, a sink with a window above it, and cabinets. There are various pots and decorations on display. Above the sink window is a sign with the logo of an archer on it that says "Youngstown Kitchens by Mullins."

Procedure for Measuring Liquid-Water Content and Droplet Sizes in Supercooled Clouds by Rotating Multicylinder Method

Description: "The rotating multicylinder method for in-flight determination of liquid-water content, droplet size, and droplet-size distribution in icing clouds is described. The theory of operation, the apparatus required, the technique of obtaining data in flight, and detailed methods of calculating the results, including necessary charts and tables, are presented" (p. 1).

Performance of a Normal-Shock Scoop Inlet with Boundary-Layer Control

Description: Memorandum presenting tests made on a normal-shock inlet mounted as a scoop on a flat plate on which a turbulent boundary layer was generated. A boundary-layer-removal scoop was provided between the inlet and the plate and various amounts of the boundary layer were removed. Results regarding the main inlet, boundary-layer scoop, and an evaluation of results are provided.

A comparison of gust loads measured in flight on a swept-wing airplane and an unswept-wing airplane

Description: Report presenting flight testing with two jet-propelled airplanes in rough air to investigate effects of sweep on gust loads and gust selectivity. Data was taken with an unswept-wing airplane and a 35 degree swept-wing airplane for incremental accelerations corresponding to airspeeds of 300 and 450 miles per hour. The results indicated that the swept-wing airplane experienced lower loads in turbulent air than the unswept-wing airplane.

Flight-Determined Pressure Distributions Over the Wing of the Bell X-1 Research Airplane (10-Percent-Thick Wing) at Subsonic and Transonic Speeds

Description: Report presenting measurements of chordwise pressure distributions at four spanwise stations over a 10-percent-thick wing of the Bell X-1 airplane. Results regarding pressure distributions at the various stations and section aerodynamic characteristics are presented. The data was obtained for a range of Mach numbers from 0.30 to 11.9 and altitudes from 17,000 to 47,000 with several different types of maneuvers.

Investigation at Low Speed of the Flow Field Behind the Lifting Surfaces of a Model Equipped With a 60 Degree Triangular Wing and a 60 Degree Triangular Canard Tail

Description: Report presenting an investigation of the flow behind the lifting surfaces of a model equipped with a 60 degree triangular wing and a 60 degree triangular canard tail. Results regarding the force and moment data, air-stream surveys behind the wing, effective values of downwash and dynamic-pressure ratio, effect of tail height and length, a comparison with previous data, the effects of component area and ratio, and the effect of a canard tail are provided.

A Problem in the Conversion of Neutron Dose to Flux

Description: This report discusses the calculation involved in converting neutron dose to flux. In order to test conversion calculation methods, the flux entering the Oak Ridge National Laboratory Lid Tank and the water by the north face of the Oak Ridge National Laboratory Bulk Shielding Reactor was used.

Spectrographic Analysis of Plutonium by the Thenoyltrifloroacetone Extraction Method

Description: Impurities are separated from plutonium solutions by means of TTA (thenoyltrifluoracetone) extractions. Plutonium in hydrochloric acid solution is reduced to the trivalent state with hydroxylamine, and some impurities are extracted into hezone or a solution of TTA in hezone. The organic phase is removed, and the plutonium in the aqueous phase is oxidized to the tetravalent state with nitric acid. Investigations of several variables which affect the extraction are described..

Analytical study of blockage- and lift-interference corrections for slotted tunnels obtained by the substitution of an equivalent homogeneous boundary for the discrete slots

Description: From Introduction: "This paper will treat the problem in the suggested manner, beginning with the development of a suitable boundary condition to represent mathematically a homogeneous boundary which has the same flow characteristics, at a point in the flow sufficiently removed from the boundary as the actual physical boundary of alternate open and closed portions of the wall. Numerical results will be presented for circular tunnels with uniformly distributed around the circumference, for recta… more

Electron Loading and High Voltage Sparking of Metals in Vacuum

Description: Statistical methods were employed to measure relative values of electron loading and spark-over voltage for a large number of unoutgassed electrode materials. Test voltages up to 110 KV were employed in vacuum of the order of 10<sup>-7 mm Hg. All metals showed a square root dependence between spark-over voltage and spacing.
