Correlation of laboratory smoke test with carbon deposition in turbojet combustors

Description: Report presenting a correlation of carbon deposition of 19 fuels in a turbojet combustor as a function of the boiling point and of the flame height at the sooting point of the fuels in a simple wick lamp for a particular combustor operating at a single set of conditions. Two similar investigations with different combustors, operating conditions, and nine different fuels yielded similar correlations on the same graph.

The effect of aspect ratio on the subsonic aerodynamic characteristics of wings with NACA 65(sub 1)-210 sections

Description: Report presenting the results of tests of four model wings of aspect ratios 1, 2, 4, and 6 and with NACA 65(sub 1)-210 sections. The experimental lift-curve slope is compared with predictions from theory. Results regarding lift, drag, and pitching moment, lift-curve slope, drag divergence, minimum drag, and pitching moment are provided.
