An analytical method of estimating turbine performance

An analytical method of estimating turbine performance

Date: December 29, 1948
Creator: Kochendorfer, Fred D
Description: A method is developed by which the performance of a turbine over a range of operating conditions can be analytically estimated from the blade angles and flow areas. In order to use the method, certain coefficients that determine the weight flow and friction losses must be approximated. The method is used to calculate the performance of the single-stage turbine of a commercial aircraft gas-turbine engine and the calculated performance is compared with the performance indicated by experimental data. For the turbine of the typical example, the assumed pressure losses and turning angles give a calculated performance that represents the trends of the experimental performance with reasonable accuracy. The exact agreement between analytical performance and experimental performance is contingent upon the proper selection of the blading-loss parameter. A variation of blading-loss parameter from 0.3 to 0.5 includes most of the experimental data from the turbine investigated.

An investigation of aileron oscillations at transonic speeds on NACA 23012 and NACA 65-212 airfoils by the wing-flow method

An investigation of aileron oscillations at transonic speeds on NACA 23012 and NACA 65-212 airfoils by the wing-flow method

Date: December 29, 1948
Creator: Crane, Harold L
Description: An investigation is being conducted to determine the feasibility of studying aileron buzz by means of the wing-flow method. Two semispan models which had an aspect ratio of 6 and a taper ratio of 2 with quarter-chord half-span mass-balanced ailerons have been used. One had an NACA 23012 airfoil section and the second, an NACA 65-212 airfoil section. The ailerons on both models were subject to buzz over a small range of Mach number near 0.9. Data obtained by wing-flow testing agreed reasonably well with full-scale flight results.

Longitudinal-stability investigation of high-lift and stall-control devices on a 52 degree sweptback wing with and without fuselage and horizontal tail at a Reynolds number of 6.8 x 10(exp 6).

Longitudinal-stability investigation of high-lift and stall-control devices on a 52 degree sweptback wing with and without fuselage and horizontal tail at a Reynolds number of 6.8 x 10(exp 6).

Date: December 20, 1948
Creator: Foster, Gerald V
Description: Contains low-speed longitudinal stability characteristics of a 52 degree sweptback wing of aspect ratio 2.88, taper ratio 0.625, and NACA 64 (sub 1)-112 airfoil sections normal to the 0.282-chord line, in combination with split flaps, leading-edge flaps, and upper-surface fences. Low-wing and midwing-fuselage aerodynamic characteristics are presented with and without a horizontal tail at various vertical locations. Tests were conducted at a Reynolds number of 6.8 x 10(exp 6).
