The use of source-sink and doublet distributions extended to the solution of boundary-value problems in supersonic flow (open access)

The use of source-sink and doublet distributions extended to the solution of boundary-value problems in supersonic flow

"A direct analogy is established between the use of source-sink and doublet distributions in the solution of specific boundary-value problems in subsonic wing theory and the corresponding problems in supersonic theory. The correct concept of the "finite part" of an integral is introduced and used in the calculation of the improper integrals associated with supersonic doublet distributions. The general equations developed are shown to include several previously published results and particular examples are given for the loading on rolling and pitching triangular wings with supersonic leading edges" (p. 157).

Analysis of variation of piston temperature with piston dimensions and undercrown cooling (open access)

Analysis of variation of piston temperature with piston dimensions and undercrown cooling

From Summary: "A theoretical analysis is presented that permits estimation of the changes in piston-temperature distribution induced by variations in the crown thickness, the ring-groove-pad thickness, and the undercrown surface heat-transfer coefficient. The analysis consists of the calculation of operating temperatures at various points in the piston body on the basis of the experimentally determined surface heat-transfer coefficients and boundary-region temperatures, as well as arbitrarily selected surface coefficients."
