Determination of boundary-layer transition on three symmetrical airfoils in the NACA full-scale wind tunnel

Description: For the purpose of studying the transition from laminar to turbulent flow, boundary-layer measurements were made in the NACA full-scale wind tunnel on three symmetrical airfoils of NACA 0009, 0012, and 0018 sections. The effects of variations in lift coefficient, Reynolds number, and airfoil thickness on transition were investigated. Air speed in the boundary layer was measured by total-head tubes and by hot wires; a comparison of transition as indicated by the two techniques was obtained. The … more

Development of Equipment for the Purification of Mercury by Distillation

Description: Abstract: "An investigation of the mercury salvage program has resulted in the development of an improved high compacity type of distillation apparatus. The still, electrically heated and essentially automatic in its operation, will produce at a rate greater than 75 pounds per hour and develop a product 99.99% pure or better. This still will handle the lowest grade crude of amalgam that can pass through the feed lines and will continue to develop a pure prodcut for comparatively long periods of… more

Effects of a Fuselage and Various High-Lift and Stall-Control Flaps on Aerodynamic Characteristics in Pitch of an NACA 64-Series 40 Degree Swept-Back Wing

Description: Report presenting wind-tunnel testing to determine the low-speed lift, drag, and pitching-moment characteristics of a 40 degree sweptback wing with high-lift and stall-control flaps and a fuselage with a fineness ratio of 10.2 to 1. Low, medium, and high-wing-fuselage combinations were tested at high Reynolds numbers. Results regarding the high-lift and stall-control flaps and wing-fuselage combinations are provided.

Further investigation of NACA 4-(5)(08)-03 two-blade propeller at high forward speeds

Description: Report presenting tests of an NACA 4-(5)(08)-03 two-blade propeller in the 8-foot high-speed tunnel for blade angles of 45 and 60 degrees extending the Mach number range from that of previous tests of the propeller up to Mach number 0.913. When the forward speed was increased from a low value to a forward Mach number of 0.90, the loss in peak efficiency was found to be not more than 47 percent.

Spin and Recovery Characteristics of the Curtiss-Wright XP-87 Airplane

Description: "The spin and recovery characteristics of the Curtiss-Wright XP-87 airplane, as well as the spin-recovery parachute requirements, the control forces that would be encountered in the spin, and the best method for the crew to attempt an emergency escape, are presented in this report. The characteristics were estimated rather than determined by model tests because the XP-87 dimensional and mass characteristics were considered to be noncritical and because data were available from model tests of se… more

Experimental investigation of hot-gas bleedback for ice protection of turbojet engines 2: nacelle with long straight air inlet

Description: Report presenting aerodynamic and icing investigations conducted in the icing research tunnel on a model of a turbojet-engine nacelle with a long straight air inlet in order to provide basic design criteria for hot-gas blowback systems. The most uniform temperature distribution was obtained with a bleedback of 4.4 percent at a gas temperature of 1000 degrees Fahrenheit and resulted in an average dry-air-temperature rise of 46 degrees Fahrenheit.
