Tests in the gust tunnel of a model of the XBM-1 airplane

Description: Report presenting testing of a dynamically scaled model of a Navy XBM-1 biplane in the gust tunnel to provide data for use in determining the structure of atmospheric gusts from measurements of the motions of the full-scale airplane in rough air. Records for two flights for several gradients were evaluated to give histories of events during passage through the gust.

Lift Distribution and Longitudinal Stability of an Airplane

Description: The preliminary calculation of the airplane polar and hence of the flight performances and characteristics rests on the assumption of an elliptical lift distribution at all altitudes. For large angles of attack below C(sub a (sub max)), this method of calculation yields no satisfactory agreement with measurements made in flight. An attempt is made to eliminate the errors in the preliminary calculation by the assumption of a disturbance of the lift distribution in this angle-of-attack range, whi… more

Velocity Distribution in the Boundary Layer of a Submerged Plate

Description: This report deals with the measurement of the velocity distribution of the air in the velocity of a plate placed parallel to the air flow. The measurements took place in a small wind tunnel where the diameter of the entrance cone is 30 cm and the length of the free jet between the entrance and exit cones is about 2.5 m. The measurements were made in the free jet where the static pressure was constant, which was essential for the method of measurement used.

Effects of Propellers and of Vibration on the Extent of Laminar Flow on the NACA 27-212 Airfoil

Description: Report presenting an investigation of the effects of propellers and of vibration on the extent of laminar flow on the NACA 27-212 airfoil by testing the airfoil in conjunction with a tractor and a pusher propeller and with a mechanical vibrator. The results show that neither the pusher propeller nor vibration with amplitudes up to 0.094 inch and with a frequency of 1650 cycles per minute had any consequential effect on the extent of laminar flow but that the tractor propeller had a very pronoun… more

Ground-cooling and flight tests of an airplane equipped with a nose-blower engine cowling

Description: Report presenting flight and ground-cooling tests with a Northrop A-17A attack airplane to determine the merits of a nose-blower engine cowling designed and built at the NACA laboratory. The main objective was to determine the cooling characteristics of the nose blower, especially for ground and low-speed operation. Results regarding the cooling properties, engine pressure drop, and maximum speed and drag are provided.

Flow observations with tufts and lampblack of the stalling of four typical airfoil sections in the NACA variable-density tunnel

Description: From Summary: "A preliminary investigation of the stalling processes of four typical airfoil sections was made over the critical range of the Reynolds Number. Motion pictures were taken of the movements of small silk tufts on the airfoil surface as the angle of attack increased through a range of angles including the stall. The boundary-layer flow also at certain angles of attack was indicated by the patterns formed by a suspension of lampblack in oil brushed onto the airfoil surface. These obs… more

Experimental Study of Torsional Column Failure

Description: "Thirty-three 24ST aluminum-alloy 2- by 2- by 0.10-inch channels, with lengths ranging from 10 to 90 inches were tested at Stanford University in compression to obtain an experimental verification of the theoretical formulas for torsional failure developed by Eugene E. Lundquist of the N.A.C.A. The observed critical loads and twist-axis locations were sufficiently close to the values obtained from the formulas to establish the substantial validity of the latter. The differences between observed… more
