Flight Investigation and Theoretical Calculations of the Fuselage Deformations of a Swept-Wing Bomber During Push-Pull Maneuvers

Description: Report presenting the results of fuselage-deflection measurements at three stations on the fuselage of a swept-wing bomber (Boeing B-47A) during 12 push-pull maneuvers. The results are provided in the form of coefficients expressing the fuselage deflection due to normal-acceleration loads, pitching angular-acceleration loads, pitching angular-velocity loads, and the combined effect of zero-lift loads, fuselage dead weight, and landing-gear reactions. Comparisons of the theoretical and experimen… more

Leading-Edge Contours for Thin Swept Wings: An Analysis of Low-and High-Speed Data

Description: Memorandum presenting a review of important aspects of current data on thin swept wings with bulbous leading-edge contours. The outboard concentration of a bulbous contour will generally yield most or all of the characteristics low-speed benefit attainable from the use of such a contour. Results regarding data at low speeds, data at high speeds, implications of the data regarding outboard bulbous contours, and area-rule considerations and data are provided.

A Preliminary Analysis of the Magnitude of Shock Losses in Transonic Compressors

Description: Report presenting a review of the possible shock system associated with the supersonic blade elements encountered in transonic-compressor rotors. The variation of shock shape and location with operating conditions is described. Results regarding flow, estimated shock losses at maximum element efficiency, and profile losses are provided.
