Measurements of downwash and sidewash behind cruciform triangular wings at Mach number 1.4 (open access)

Measurements of downwash and sidewash behind cruciform triangular wings at Mach number 1.4

Report presenting an experimental investigation of the downwash and sidewash flow angles in a transverse plane behind a cruciform-wing and body combination. The wing-body combination had a cruciform arrangement of two identical triangular wings of aspect ratio 2.31 corresponding to a leading-edge sweep angle of 60 degrees placed on a body of fineness ratio of 16. The investigation was conducted at a specified Mach and Reynolds number and a range of angles of bank and attack.

Free-flight-tunnel investigation of the dynamic lateral stability and control characteristics of a tip-to-tip bomber-fighter coupled airplane configuration (open access)

Free-flight-tunnel investigation of the dynamic lateral stability and control characteristics of a tip-to-tip bomber-fighter coupled airplane configuration

Report presenting an investigation in the free-flight tunnel to determine the dynamic lateral stability and control characteristics of a coupled airplane configuration with simplified fighter models attached to the wing tips of a simplified bomber model. The configuration is meant to represent fighter airplanes carried on the wing tips of a bomber airplane to provide fighter protection for the bomber or for in-flight fueling. Results regarding the fighters attached with freedom in roll, with freedom in roll and pitch, and with freedom in roll, pitch, and yaw are provided.

Lubrication and cooling studies of cylindrical-roller bearings at high speeds (open access)

Lubrication and cooling studies of cylindrical-roller bearings at high speeds

The results of an experimental investigation of the effect of oil inlet distribution and oil inlet temperature on the inner and outer-race temperatures of 75-millimeter-bore (size 215) cylindrical-roller inner-race-riding cage-type bearings are reported. A radial-load test rig was used over a range of dn values (product of the bearing bore in mm and the shaft speed in r.p.m) from 0.3 x 10(5) to 1.2 x 10(6) and static radial loads from 7 to 1113 pounds.
