Nitration Reactions of Shell Spray Base under Purex Waste Recovery Process Conditions

Description: Abstract: "Experiments were performed to characterize the types of nitro compounds that might be formed by reaction of Shell Spray Base with nitric acid, to determine the extent of their formation, if any, and their path under conditions of nitric acid recovery in the Purex Process. It is concluded that the instability of Shell Spray Base to nitration, under conditions to prevail in the plant, presents neither a disposal problem nor a safety problem."

Impingement of Cloud Droplets on a Cylinder and Procedure for Measuring Liquid-Water Content and Droplet Sizes in Supercooled Clouds by Rotating Multicylinder Method

Description: "Evaluation of the rotating multicylinder method for the measurement of droplet-size distribution, volume-median droplet size, and liquid-water content in clouds showed that small uncertainties in the basic data eliminate the distinction between different cloud droplet-size distributions and are a source of large errors in the determination of the droplet size. Calculations of the trajectories of cloud droplets in incompressible and compressible flow fields around a cylinder were performed on a… more

The effects of oscillation amplitude and frequency on the experimental damping in pitch of a triangular wing having an aspect ratio of 4

Description: Memorandum presenting the results of a wind-tunnel investigation of the damping in pitch of a model triangular wing with an aspect ratio of 4 combined with a slender pointed body. The investigation was conducted at Mach numbers from 0.10 to 0.95 for Reynolds numbers of 550,000 and 1,250,000 with additional data obtained at Reynolds numbers of 3,000,000 and 6,000,000 at Mach number 0.23. Results regarding the effects of oscillation amplitude, Mach number, Reynolds number, angle of attack, freque… more

Altitude performance of annular combustor type turbojet engine with JFC-2 fuel

Description: An investigation was made comparing the performance of JFC-2 fuel and unleaded, clear gasoline in a 3000-pound-thrust turbojet engine. The JFC-2 fuel was a blend of percent diesel fuel and 25 percent aviation gasoline. Engine combustion efficiency was equal to that obtained with gasoline at rated engine speed and altitudes up to 35,000 feet, but at lower engine speeds or at higher altitudes the JFC-2 fuel gave lower combustion efficiency. No discernible difference was obtained in starting or lo… more

Instrumentation and calibration technique for flight calibration of angle-of-attack systems on aircraft

Description: From Summary: "Data are presented on the instrumentation and calibration technique used in determining the position error of angle-of-attack sensors mounted on the fuselage of a 35 degree swept-wing fighter airplane. The true angle of attack was determined by the use of a nose boom with five angle-of-attack vanes spaced 20 inches apart on alternate sides of the boom. Errors due to boom bending, upwash around the boom, and vane floating angle were measured and corrections applied to all indicate… more

Some Low-Speed Studies of the Effects of Wing Location on Wing-Deformation-Body-Freedom Flutter

Description: Report presenting an investigation of flutter of wings mounted on the after portion of a body free to pitch was made in the flutter research tunnel. Uniform wings of 0 and 45 degrees sweep were tested at various positions rearward of the pitch axis. A low-frequency flutter was observed on the unswept wing, but no flutter was obtained for the swept wings.

Analytical study of static and low-speed performance of thin propellers using two-speed gear ratios to obtain optimum rotational speeds

Description: From Introduction: "The purpose of the present paper is to investigate the effect of two-speed gearing on the take-off efficiency under certain conditions. The present paper gives charts from which the efficiencies can be readily computed for optimum rotational speeds. Also included is a brief discussion of the static thrust of thin propellers, including the effect of camber on the static thrust."
