Air Flow in the Boundary Layer of an Elliptic Cylinder

Description: From Introduction: "The present investigation was carried out for the purpose of supplementing the earlier work with information on the boundary layer under such conditions of air speed and turbulence that transition occurs and the layer is partly laminar and partly turbulent. In the work reported in reference 1, the air speed was about 12 feet per second, and it was assumed that the boundary layer remained in the laminar condition until after separation because the separation point remained fi… more

Critical dimensions of water-tamped slabs and spheres of active material

Description: The magnitude and distribution of the fission rate per unit area produced by three energy groups of moderated neutrons reflected from a water tamper into one side of an infinite slab of active material is calculated approximately in section II. This rate is directly proportional to the current density of fast neutrons from the active material incident on the water tamper. The critical slab thickness is obtained in section III by solving an inhomogeneous transport integral equation for the fast-… more

Altitude-Wind-Tunnel Investigation of a 4000-Pound-Thrust Axial-Flow Turbojet Engine. 2 - Operational Characteristics

Description: From Summary: "An investigation was conducted in the Cleveland altitude wind tunnel to determine the operational characteristics of an axial flow-type turbojet engine with a 4000-pound-thrust rating over a range of pressure altitudes from 5,000 to 50,000 feet, ram pressure ratios from 1.00 to 1.86, and temperatures from 60 deg to -50 deg F. The low-flow (standard) compressor with which the engine was originally equipped was replaced by a high-flow compressor for part of the investigation. The e… more

Cooperation with US Geological Survey

Description: This is a reference made to a memorandum about the cooperation between the Hanford Site and the US Geological Survey. The US Geological Survey was at the site to work with Hanford on geological problems the site was having. They worked together to locate the water supply wells of the site which would be coordinated with the drilling program. They also worked together on the possible contamination to the 300 and 3000 area wells. (MB)

Investigation of X24C-2 10-Stage Axial-Flow Compressor 3 - Surge Characteristics

Description: Compressor operation at low air flows for a given speed is limited by unstable flow conditions, commonly called surge. An investigation of surge in centrifugal compressors (reference 1) showed that the pulsation of pressures and velocities occurred when the slope of the compressor characteristic curve was positive and that the magnitude and frequency, as well as the incidence of surge, depended on the capacity and resistance of the total system. Although the theory presented in reference 1 is a… more

Preliminary Results of an Altitude-Wind-Tunnel Investigation of an Axial-Flow Gas Turbine-Propeller Engine 5 - Combustion-Chamber Characterisitcs

Description: "An investigation to determine the performance and operational characteristics of an axial-flow gas turbine-propeller engine was conducted in the Cleveland altitude wind tunnel. As part of this investigation, the combustion-chamber performance was determined at pressure altitudes from 5000 to 35,000 feet, compressor-inlet ram-pressure ratios of 1.00 and 1.09, and engine speeds from 8000 to 13,000 rpm. Combustion-chamber performance is presented as a function of corrected engine speed and correc… more

Preliminary Results of Natural Icing of an Axial-Flow Turbojet Engine

Description: Memorandum presenting a flight investigation in natural icing conditions to determine the effect of ice formations on the performance of an axial-flow turbojet engine. Tail-pipe temperature increased from 761 to 1065 degrees Fahrenheit and the jet thrust decreased from 1234 to 910 pounds during a period of 45 minutes in icing. No general conclusions can be reached from the data because the icing condition was relatively light.

Preliminary Results of Nene Ii Engine Altitude-Chamber Performance Investigation 3 - Altitude Performance Using 18.00-Inch-Diameter Jet Nozzle

Description: "An investigation is being conducted to determine the altitude performance characteristics of the Nene II engine and its components. The present paper presents the preliminary results obtained using jet nozzle 18.00 inches in diameter, with an area equal to 92.2 percent of the area of the standard jet nozzle for this engine. The experimental results presented are for conditions simulating altitudes from 20,000 to 60,000 feet and ram-pressure ratios from 1.1 to 3.5" (p. 1).

Matching Characteristics of J35-A-23 Compressor and Two-stage Turbine

Description: Component data on the J35-A-23 compressor and two-stage turbine were used to determine the problems in matching the two units for operation in a turbojet engine. Possible operating regions were determined and an equilibrium operating line was also determined for the assumed conditions of zero flight speed and a jet nozzle area approximately 5.5 percent greater than the wide-open nozzle area.

Report for research on substitute materials. Quarterly progress report, April 2, 1951 to July 2, 1951 (Polonium-208)

Description: Mound Laboratory is cooperating on a joint development program directed toward the production of polonium-208 by proton irradiation of bismuth. Because of the greater half life of polonium-208 compared with polonium-210 (2.93 years versus 138.4 days), it would be a desirable substitute for polonium-210, At the present time the Electromagnetic Division of Oak Ridge National Laboratory is operating a cyclotron for the production of polonium-208 on an experimental scale. The targets produced are s… more
