Aerodynamic characteristics of low-aspect-ratio wings at high supersonic Mach numbers

Description: From Introduction: "This paper presents some recently obtained data on the aerodynamic characteristics of low-aspect-ratio wings at supersonic Mach numbers of 4.04 and 6.9 and discusses some new methods of predicting the lift and drag of such wings. Data on lifting wings in the Mach number range above 2.5 are not plentiful and most of the available data may be found in NACA RM L51D17, NACA RM L51D30, NACA RM L52D15a, NACA RM L52K19, NACA RM L53D03, and NACA RM L53D30a."

An Analytical Investigation of the Effect of the Rate of Increase of Turbulent Kinetic Energy in the Stream Direction on the Development of Turbulent Boundary Layers in Adverse Pressure Gradients

Description: "The purpose of this paper is to provide a derivation of the general integral form of the boundary equation without neglecting the Reynolds normal-stress term. Two special cases of this equation are given explicitly" (p. 2).

Angular Distribution of 30.6 Mev Protons Elastically Scattered by Be, C, and Al

Description: The motivation for the measurement of the angular distribution of elastic scattering of medium energy protons and neutrons has been clearly presented by others. They have also listed the results obtained prior to their experiments at 31.5 Mev. This is a report on some results obtained with 30.6 Mev protons scattered from Be, C, and Al.

The Anodizing of Zirconium

Description: Five continuous coatings were produced on zirconium coupons using an anodizing technique. These layers appear to be quite adherent and not subject to visible or audible failure caused by flaxion of the basis metal, Their abrasion resistance, though not investigated thoroughly, appears to be moderately good.

Application of Silver Chloride in Investigations of Elasto-Plastic States of Stress

Description: Note presenting a description of the use of silver chloride as a material for photoelastic stress analysis, which offers the possibilities of studying both elastic and plastic states of stress in a crystalline metallike material on either a microscale or macroscale. In order to use it, however, it is necessary to relate the stress state quantitatively with the observed relative retardation and extinction angle.

Applications of auxiliary air injectors to supersonic wind tunnels

Description: Report presenting a discussion of the adverse effects of high compression ratio requirements for supersonic wind tunnels as well as the use of second throats for alleviating those effects. The results indicated that an auxiliary air-injector system can reduce starting and running compression ratios as compared to a conventional wind tunnel with a divergent diffuser.

BEVATRON RESEARCH MEETING V - HIGH ENERGY NUCLEAR INTERACTION

Description: There are two different types of investigation of interest in high energy nuclear phenomena. One can observe gross effects such as the production of large numbers of heavy particles of different types, or one can study the elementary particles themselves which result from these collisions, for example, the kappa mesons, to determine modes of decay and the energy spectra of the resulting particles. This discussion will deal with the gross aspects of high energy interactions and will review the w… more

BEVATRON RESEARCH MEETING VI - HIGH ENERGY NUCLEAR INTERACTION

Description: The relative probabilities for alternate processes initiated by a nucleon-nucleon collision depend on the dynamics involved and on the volume in phase space accessible to each final state. According to Fermi this last aspect alone may be of decisive importance. Such an assignment would follow were an approximate statistical equilibrium reached. The volume occupied by the incident nucleons and the associated pion clouds will have very large energy density at the instant of collision. Knowing tha… more

The Calculation of Pressure on Slender Airplanes in Subsonic and Supersonic Flow

Description: "Under the assumption that a wing, body, or wing-body combination is slender or flying at near sonic velocity, expressions are given which permit the calculation of pressure in the immediate vicinity of the configuration. The disturbance field, in both subsonic and supersonic flight, is shown to consist of two-dimensional disturbance fields extending laterally and a longitudinal field that depends on the streamwise growth of cross-sectional area. A discussion is also given of couplings, between… more

A Comparative Study of Hanford and Utah Range Sheep

Description: Observations on sheep representing flocks in Utah adjacent to the Nevada Proving Ground were compared with findings made on experimental sheep exposed to various amounts of radioiodine. The Utah sheep showed no evidence of the radiation damage observed in experimentally treated sheep. Estimations of amounts of radioiodine on vegetation required to cause serious thyroid damage following a contamination event are included.

The Cosmotron Radio Frequency Accelerating System

Description: The proton beam in the Cosmotron is accelerated to an energy of 2.3 billion electron volts by a radio frequency voltage which is impressed across an insulated gap in the ferrite loaded accelerating cavity of the vacuum chamber. To maintain a constant orbit radius as the beam is accelerated, the frequency of the accelerating voltage must increase from the initial value of 370 kc/sec to 4200 kc/sec during the one second magnet pulse. Over the entire 11:1 frequency range, a minimum gap voltage of … more

Coulometric Determination of Phosphate

Description: The conventional volumetric micro-determination of phosphate depends upon the precipitation of phosphomolybdate, filtration and washing of the precipitate, and titration with standard base. The method is slow and tedious, subject to many interferences, and is not applicable to samples containing less than 1-2 mg of phosphate. Other weak acid anions, such as carbonate or acetate, interfere in the method. Strong acid anions, such as nitrate, sulfate, and chloride do not interfere.

Dimensional Stability of Uranium Powder Compacts Upon Thermal Cycling

Description: Thermal cycling tests on uranium have shown that the dimensional changes that occur on cycling in the alpha range are directly related to both the texture of the material and its grain size: cold rolled rods generally elongate in the direction of rolling, while the same rods, after a beta-treatment, grow at rates several orders of magnitude lower. This considerable improvement by beta-treatment has been attributed to the texture randomization accompanying the heat-treatment. In the course of th… more
