Investigation and Preparation of Polymer Films to Improve the Separation of Water and Salts in Saline Water Conversion

Description: From Introduction: "As will be explained in more detail elsewhere in this report, casting methods and drying conditions have been found to have a drastic effect on film permeability to both water and salt. Errors that became evident in temperature control indicated that some of the previous high rates were obtained at temperatures considerably higher than the 100 degrees C that was intended and reported."

Investigation at high subsonic speeds of bodies mounted from the wing of an unswept-wing-fuselage model, including measurements of body loads

Description: Report presenting an investigation with the dual purpose of determining the effect of two bodies in various positions, symmetrically located from the plane of symmetry, on the aerodynamic characteristics of a wing-fuselage model and determining the aerodynamic loads on one of two bodies.
