Performance of an All-Internal Conical Compression Inlet with Annular Throat Bleed at Mach Number 5.0 (open access)

Performance of an All-Internal Conical Compression Inlet with Annular Throat Bleed at Mach Number 5.0

From Summary: "An all-internal conical compression inlet with annular bleed at the throat was investigated at Mach 5.0 and zero angle of attack. The minimum contraction ratio of the supersonic diffuser, coincident with a mass-flow ratio of 1.0, was determined to be 0.084 as compared with the isentropic contraction ratio of 0.04 at Mach 5.0. The over-all inlet performance was very sensitive to the amount of annular bleed at the throat because of the extensive boundary layer."

A Preliminary Investigation of High-Speed Impact the Penetration of Small Spheres Into Thick Copper Targets (open access)

A Preliminary Investigation of High-Speed Impact the Penetration of Small Spheres Into Thick Copper Targets

Small metal spheres of various densities were fired at high speed into thick targets of copper and lead. In general, it was found that all of the penetrations could be correlated quite well for engineering purposes by a function relating the depth of penetration to the impact momentum per unit volume.
