Tests of nacelle-propeller combinations in various positions with reference to wings 6: wings and nacelles with pusher propeller

Description: This report is the sixth of a series giving wind tunnel tests results on the interference drag and propulsive efficiency of nacelle-propeller-wing combinations. The present report gives the results of tests of a radial-engine nacelle with pusher propeller in 17 positions with reference to a Clark Y wing; tests of the same nacelle and propeller in three positions with reference to a thick wing; and tests of a body and pusher propeller with the thick wing, simulating the case of a propeller drive… more

Flutter calculations in three degrees of freedom

Description: From Summary: "The present paper is a continuation of the general study of flutter published in NACA reports nos. 496 and 685. The paper is mainly devoted to flutter in three degrees of freedom (bending, torsion, and aileron) for which a number of selected cases have been calculated and presented in graphical form. The results are analyzed and discussed with regard to the effects of structural damping, of fractional-span ailerons, and of mass-balancing. The analysis shows that more emphasis sho… more

Analysis of Uranium-Nicked Alloys

Description: Abstract. Methods for determination of both uranium and nickel in solutions of these metals are described. Alloys can be dissolved in nitric acid treated with citric acid to complex the uranium, and the nickel precipitated as nicked dimethylglyoxime. The uranium is reduced and titrated with standard ceric sulfate. These methods are for the determination of macro amounts of uranium and nickel with errors on the order of 0.1%.

Flight Investigation at High Speeds of the Drag of Three Airfoils and a Circular Cylinder Representing Full-Scale Propeller Shanks

Description: "Tests have been made at high speeds to determine the drag of models, simulating propeller shanks, in the form of a circular cylinder and three airfoils, the NACA 16-025, the NACA 16-040, and the NACA 16-040 with the rear 25 percent chord cut off. All the models had a maximum thickness of 4 1/2 inches to conform with average propeller-shank dimensions and a span of 20 1/4 inches. For the tests the models were supported perpendicular to the lower surface of the wing of an XP-51 airplane (p. 277). more

Preliminary investigation of combustion in flowing gas with various turbulence promoters

Description: Report presenting an investigation of combustion occurring downstream of various turbulence promoters in a 20-inch length of a 1 7/8-inch inside-diameter, water-jacketed tubing using premixed vaporized fuel and air. Among the turbulence promoters investigated were flat plates perforated with 1/8-inch diameter holes, 1/4-inch diameter holes, and a single large hole to give 12.4, 17.2, and 21.5 percent open area respectively.

Wing-Tunnel Investigation at High Subsonic Speeds of the Lateral-Control Characteristics of an Aileron and a Stepped Spoiler on a Wing With Leading Edge Swept Back 51.3 Degrees

Description: Report presenting a wind-tunnel investigation through a speed range from Mach number 0.30 to 0.90 to determine the lateral-control characteristics of a 20-percent-chord by 39-percent-semispan aileron and a 60-percent-semispan stepped spoilers on a semispan-wing model with aspect ratio of 3.06 with 51.3 degrees sweepback of the wing leading edge. The aileron rolling effectiveness decreased as the Mach number increased, while the spoiler rolling-moment effectiveness decreased with Mach number.

Preliminary Analysis of Problem of Determining Experimental Performance of Air-Cooled Turbine 2: Methods for Determining Cooling-Air-Flow Characteristics

Description: In the determination of the performance of an air-cooled turbine, the cooling-air-flow characteristics between the root and the tip of the blades must be evaluated. The methods, which must be verified and the unknown functions evaluated, that are expected to permit the determination of pressure, temperature, and velocity through the blade cooling-air passages from specific investigation are presented.

Discussion of boundary-layer characteristics near the wall of an axial-flow compressor

Description: From Summary: "The boundary-layer velocity profiles in the tip region of an axial-flow compressor downstream of the guide vanes and downstream of the rotor were measured by use of total-pressure and claw-type yaw probes. These velocities were resolved into two components: one along the streamline of the flow outside the boundary layer, and the other perpendicular to it. The affinity among all profiles was thus demonstrated with the boundary-layer thickness and the deflection of the boundary lay… more
