Study of stress states in gas-turbine disk as determined from measured operating-temperature distributions (open access)

Study of stress states in gas-turbine disk as determined from measured operating-temperature distributions

Report presenting results of an experimental investigation to determine the temperature distribution in an aircraft-engine gas-turbine disk. Calculated stresses based on the measured temperature distributions are presented. Results regarding stresses in the inner region of the disk and stresses in the rim of the disk are provided.

Tests of a triangular wing of aspect ratio 2 in the Ames 12-foot pressure wind tunnel 2: the effectiveness and hinge moments of a constant-chord plain flap (open access)

Tests of a triangular wing of aspect ratio 2 in the Ames 12-foot pressure wind tunnel 2: the effectiveness and hinge moments of a constant-chord plain flap

Report presenting a semispan triangular wing with a constant-chord trailing-edge flap to evaluate the aerodynamic characteristics of the wing with landing speeds up to a Mach number of 0.95. Tests were included to ascertain the effects of the addition of a body and of modifications to the airfoil section. Results regarding the wing alone with low Mach number, wing alone with high Mach number, effect of the body, effect of the flap, effect of Mach number, lift-drag ratio, and wing-profile modifications are provided.
