Report presenting an investigation of the performance of a diffuser static-pressure-ratio control with a normal shock-positioning limit on a ramjet engine installed in an altitude free-jet facility. Testing occurred at Mach numbers of 2.35 and 2.50, altitudes of 50,000, 60,000 and 65,000 feet, and angles of attack of 0 and 7 degrees. Results regarding the effects of control constants, effects of disturbance size and operating point, effects of flight conditions, and control limitations and possible improvements are provided.

National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics Collection
The National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics (NACA) was a U.S. federal agency founded on March 3, 1915 to undertake, promote, and institutionalize aeronautical research. On October 1, 1958 the agency was dissolved, and its assets and personnel transferred to the newly created National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA).
The Technical Report Archive & Image Library (TRAIL) identifies, acquires, catalogs, digitizes and provides unrestricted access to U.S. government agency technical reports. The mission of TRAIL is to ensure preservation, discoverability, and persistent open access to government technical publications regardless of form or format.
