Investigation of Drag and Pressure Recovery of a Scoop Inlet in the Transonic Speed Range (open access)

Investigation of Drag and Pressure Recovery of a Scoop Inlet in the Transonic Speed Range

"The drag and pressure recovery of a scoop-inlet model have been investigated at transonic speeds by the free-fall testing technique over a Mach number range from about 0.8 to 1.12. Tests were conducted at zero angle of attack, using both rounded and sharp lips at mass-flow ratios from about 0.6 to 0.9. The results indicate that the Mach number of drag divergence of the scoop-inlet model was about the same as that of the basic model without inlets which was tested previously" (p. 1).

Correlation of predicted and experimental lateral oscillation characteristics for several airplanes (open access)

Correlation of predicted and experimental lateral oscillation characteristics for several airplanes

Report presenting an investigation of the accuracy of a currently used method for predicting the dynamic lateral oscillatory characteristics of airplanes. The study involved the comparison of controls-fixed flight-test data from several current fighter-type jet airplanes with the calculated values of period and damping for the airplanes.

Spark Damage and High Voltage Breakdown of Metals in Vacuum at 14 Megacycles (open access)

Spark Damage and High Voltage Breakdown of Metals in Vacuum at 14 Megacycles

The work reported here is a continuation of that reported in UCRL-1962. Approximate breakdown voltages and spark damage estimates have been made for the metals Ag, Ti, Aluminum Alloy 52-SO, Stainless Steel 316 and various combinations of Inconel and Cu.
