Wind-Tunnel Investigation at a Mach Number of 2.01 of the Aerodynamic Characteristics in Combined Angles of Attack and Sideslip of Several Hypersonic Missile Configurations with Various Canard Controls

Description: "An investigation of the aerodynamic characteristics of several hypersonic missile configurations with various canard controls for an angle-of-attack range from 0 deg to about 28 deg at sideslip angles of about 0 deg and 4 deg at a Mach number of 2.01 has been made in the Langley 4- by 4-foot supersonic pressure tunnel. The configurations tested were a body alone which had a ratio of length to diameter of 10, the body with a 10 deg flare, the body with cruciform fins of 5 deg or 15 deg apex ang… more

224-UA continuous calciner trough examination

Description: The continuous calciners at UO{sub 3} Plant are of a new design which was developed at HAPO and placed in service late in 1956. The heat transfer troughs are considered to be the most vulnerable parts of the calciners because of their high operating temperatures. Thermal stresses are calculated to be quite high, and when added to the direct mechanical stresses from powder load etc., come close to the limiting safe stress for stainless steel at the operating temperature. It is felt that trough f… more

Energy Conversion in Photosynthetic Processes

Description: The concepts of solid-state photophysics are applied to biological materials, especially particulate matter derived from green plants. Photoinduced electron-spin resonance signals have been observed in isolated chloroplasts and other green plant materials; their growth time is not affected by reducing the temperature to -140 C. The luminescence of these materials has also been investigated under a variety of conditions. The results of these studies have been shown to be consistent with a mechan… more

Experimental Lift-Drag Ratios for Two Families of Wing-Body Combinations at Supersonic Speeds

Description: Memorandum presenting experimental force and moment characteristics, including lift-drag ratios, which have been measured and briefly studied for two families of wing-body combinations. One family consisted of essentially arrow wings with half conical bodies. The other consisted of a fineness-ratio-12 body of revolution alone and with flat-plate triangular wings of aspect ratios ranging from 0.375 to 1.8.

Effect of Distributed Granular-Type Roughness on Boundary-Layer Transition at Supersonic Speeds With and Without Surface Cooling

Description: Report presenting an investigation to determine the effect of a distributed granular-type roughness on boundary-layer transition at several temperatures. The roughness was not found to introduce any disturbances of significant magnitude to influence transition. Surface cooling did not increase the value of the critical roughness Reynolds number for a distributed granular-type roughness either.

Longitudinal and Lateral Stability and Control Characteristics at Mach Number 2.01 of a 60 Degree Delta-Wing Airplane Configuration Equipped With a Canard Control and With Wing Trailing-Edge Flap Controls

Description: Memorandum presenting an investigation in the 4- by 4-foot supersonic pressure tunnel at Mach number 2.01 to determine the longitudinal and lateral stability and control characteristics of a 60 degree delta-wing airplane configuration equipped with a trapezoidal canard control and with wing trailing-edge flap controls. The investigation included studies of the flap control with and without canard surface and studies of the canard control alone and with the flap control.
