Free-flight roll performance of a steady-flow jet-spoiler control on an 80 degree delta-wing missile between Mach numbers of 0.6 and 1.8

Description: Report presenting a free-flight investigation of the zero-lift control effectiveness of a steady-flow jet-spoiler roll control on a cruciform 80 degree delta-wing missile over a range of Mach numbers. Measurements were made of the rolling-moment, damping-in-roll derivative, drag, and pressures at the inlet and on the wing near the jet exit. Results indicated that the wing and jet combination magnified the thrust force of the isolated jet alone by factors of 11 at subsonic speeds to 3 at superso… more

Transonic Flutter Investigation of Models of the All-Movable Horizontal Tail of a Fighter Airplane

Description: Memorandum presenting a transonic flutter investigation of models of the all-movable horizontal tail of a fighter airplane in the transonic blowdown tunnel. The models were dynamically and elastically scaled by criteria which provide a flutter safety margin. Results regarding some general comments, simulated airplane tests, effects of pitch stiffness with rearward pitch axis, and effect of pitch-axis location are provided.

ZIRCEX URANIUM SUBLIMATE LOSS

Description: One of the limitations of the Zircex Process is the large percentage loss of U which is carried off with the volatile ZrCl/sub 4/. Since the ratio of U to Zr in the fuel element is quite small (< 1%), a large percentage of U loss can be caused by small amounts of U in the ZrCl/sub 4/ sublimate. The U loss must be kept below 1% if the Zircex Process is to be adapted to industrial scale processing. (W.L.H.)
