Compressibility Factor, Density, Specific Heat, Enthalpy, Entropy, Free-Energy Function, Viscosity, and Thermal Conductivity of Steam (open access)

Compressibility Factor, Density, Specific Heat, Enthalpy, Entropy, Free-Energy Function, Viscosity, and Thermal Conductivity of Steam

Note presenting tables of thermal properties of stream that have been prepared in an NBS-NACA series. They include, for real gas, the compressibility factor, the density, the specific heat at constant pressure, the enthalpy, the entropy, the free-energy function, the viscosity, and the thermal conductivity.

Summary of Methods of Measuring Angle of Attack on Aircraft (open access)

Summary of Methods of Measuring Angle of Attack on Aircraft

Note presenting wind-tunnel calibrations of three types of angle-of-attack sensing devices - the pivoted vane, the differential pressure tube, and the null-seeking pressure tube. Flight data on the position errors for three sensor locations - ahead of the fuselage nose, ahead of the wing tip, and on the forebody of the fuselage - are also presented. Various methods for calibrating angle-of-attack installations in flight are briefly described.
