The effect of fluid injection on the compressible turbulent boundary layer: preliminary tests on transpiration cooling of a flat plate at M = 2.7 with air as the injected gas

Description: Report presenting local values of heat-transfer rate and temperature-recovery factor obtained on a transpiration-cooled flat plate. The results show primarily that transpiration cooling in a turbulent boundary layer at M = 2.7 has marked effects on the heat transfer and recovery temperature for nearly uniform air injection along the plate.

Experimental studies of flutter of buckled rectangular panels at Mach numbers from 1.2 to 3.0 including effects of pressure differential and of panel width-length ratio

Description: Report presenting experimental panel flutter data at a range of Mach numbers for buckled rectangular panels and the effect of a pressure differential. Increasing the pressure differential was found to eliminate flutter on most of the panels tested. Results regarding buckled panels clamped on the front and rear edges, bucked panels clamped on four edges, effect of lengthwise stiffeners on the flutter of a buckled panel, and panel flutter stresses are provided.

High-Speed Cascade Tests of the NACA 65-(12A(sub 10))10 and NACA 65-(12A(sub 2)I(sub 8b))10 Compressor Blade Sections

Description: "Two-dimensional porous-well cascade tests of the NACA 65- (l2Al0) 10 and NACA 65-(l2A2I8b)10 blade sections were made at Mach numbers from 0.3 to choking in most cases. Data were obtained at solidities of 1.0 and 1.5 at inlet-air angles of 45 deg. and 60 deg. for both blade sections. With a solid--wall modification to the cascade tunnel, schlieren observations were made of the flow in cascade at a solidity of 1.5 and inlet-air angle of 45 deg. and at a solidity of 1.0 and inlet-air angle of 60… more

Investigation of Interference Lift, Drag, and Pitching Moment of a Series of Triangular-Wing and Body Combinations at a Mach Number of 1.94

Description: Report presenting an investigation at Mach number 1.94 of a series of triangular-wing and body combinations to determine the interference lift, drag, and pitching moment. The models had a series of seven flat-plate triangular wings of varying scale, four with semiapex angles of 30 degrees, and three with semiapex angles of 45 degrees. Results indicated that the interference between the wing and the body gave an increase in lift over the wing and body alone, but at the expense of more drag.
