A flight investigation to increase the safety of a light airplane (open access)

A flight investigation to increase the safety of a light airplane

Report presenting information about a series of modifications incorporated into light airplanes to increase safety, including decreasing the wing incidence, increasing the wing washout, increasing the area and aspect ratio of the horizontal and vertical tails, moving the elevators out of propeller slipstreams, depressing the thrust axis, and limiting the rudder travel. The new inherent safety characteristics and effects on the airplane's performance are provided.

Data on Optimum Length, Shear Strength, and Tensile Strength of Age-Hardened 17S-T Machine-Countersunk Rivets in 75S-T Sheet

Report presenting a series of tensile-strength and shear-strength tests made on age-hardened 17S-T rivets machine-countersunk in 75S-T sheets. The results of the tests indicated that the joints can be made satisfactorily with regard to both flushness and strength if the ratio of buck to diameter is kept to a certain value.

The streamline pattern in the vicinity of an oblique airfoil (open access)

The streamline pattern in the vicinity of an oblique airfoil

"A method for determining the streamwise flow pattern of a nonviscous incompressible fluid about an oblique airfoil from the corresponding flow pattern about the airfoil in normal position is presented and illustrated in two examples. The method can be extended to account approximately for compressibility effects by applying the Prandtl-Glauert correction factor to the flow pattern that is normal to the leading edge of the airfoil. The method is expected to be useful in determining the shape of a fuselage or nacelle having a minimum of interference with the flow over a swept-back wing" (p. 1).

Frequency-Response Method for Determination of Dynamic Stability Characteristics of Airplanes With Automatic Controls (open access)

Frequency-Response Method for Determination of Dynamic Stability Characteristics of Airplanes With Automatic Controls

Note presenting a frequency-response method for determining the critical control-gearing and hunting oscillations of airplanes with automatic pilots. The method is graphical and has several advantages over the standard numerical procedure based on Routh's discriminant. Several examples are worked out to illustrate the application of the frequency-response method in determining the effect of automatic-pilot lag or lead on critical control gearing and in determining the amplitude and frequency of hunting.

Preliminary Analysis of NACA Measurements of Atmospheric Turbulence Within a Thunderstorm - U.S. Weather Bureau Thunderstorm Project (open access)

Preliminary Analysis of NACA Measurements of Atmospheric Turbulence Within a Thunderstorm - U.S. Weather Bureau Thunderstorm Project

"A general description of the field operations of the U.S. Weather Bureau thunderstorm project conducted in the vicinity of Orlando, Florida during the summer month of 1946 is given. The participation of NACA in this project is described and measurements of atmospheric turbulence taken by NACA are presented for one of the flights. The results indicate that some regions of thunderstorms may present no great hazard to flight, while exceptionally severe conditions of atmospheric turbulence may occur in other regions, or even in the same region, at about the same time" (p. 1).
