Performance of a 28-Inch Ramjet Utilizing Gaseous Hydrogen at a Mach Number of 3.6, Angles of Attack Up to 12 Degrees, and Pressure Altitudes Up to 110,000 Feet (open access)

Performance of a 28-Inch Ramjet Utilizing Gaseous Hydrogen at a Mach Number of 3.6, Angles of Attack Up to 12 Degrees, and Pressure Altitudes Up to 110,000 Feet

Memorandum presenting an investigation conducted in the 10- by 10-foot supersonic wind tunnel to evaluate the performance of a shrouded injector burner with perforated domes employed in a 28-inch ramjet using gaseous hydrogen as fuel. Steady-state data were obtained at a pressure altitude of 77,000 feet and zero angle of attack. Results of the investigation showed that burning could be initiated under severe distortion conditions and that satisfactory combustor operation was accomplished up to a pressure altitude of 110,000 feet with no adverse effect on combustion efficiency.

Direct Interaction Neutrons from 14-Mev Inelastic Neutron Scattering (open access)

Direct Interaction Neutrons from 14-Mev Inelastic Neutron Scattering

Abstract: "Neutron nonelastic cross sections measured at different detector biases have been used to determine the cross sections for inelastically scattering 14 Mev neutrons into 9- to 14-Mev energy range. The cross section for producing these high energy neutrons, which may be attributed to direct interaction processes, is roughly 10% of the nonelastic cross section, for all elements. A comparison is made with data of Coon and co workers, who measured angular distributions for the same high-energy inelastically scattered-neutron group."

Neutron Nonelastic Cross-Section Measurements from 7 to 29 Mev (open access)

Neutron Nonelastic Cross-Section Measurements from 7 to 29 Mev

Abstract: "Neutron nonelastic cross sections have been measured for 23 elements at 14 Mev, and for a selected set of these elements over the energy ranges 7 to 14 Mev and 21 to 29 Mev. Conventional sphere transmission techniques were used for the measurements. A comparison with optical model calculations of Bjorklund and Fernbach shows excellent agreement."

Variation with Electron Temperature of the Intensity Ratio of a Pair of Helium Spectral Lines (open access)

Variation with Electron Temperature of the Intensity Ratio of a Pair of Helium Spectral Lines

Abstract: "The dependence on mean electron kinetic energy of the ratio of intensities of [lambda]5015[HeI] and [lambda]4686[HeII] has been calculated. A low-density plasma is considered, the principal assumptions being that the reaction processes are governed by electron collisions and the electron energy distribution is Maxwellian. The results show a fairly large variation of the intensity ratio within the range of 3 to 7 ev."
