Minimum Drag of Four Versions of a Swept-Wing Fighter Airplane Obtained From Flight Tests of Rocket-Boosted Models at Mach Numbers From 0.81 to 1.71 (open access)

Minimum Drag of Four Versions of a Swept-Wing Fighter Airplane Obtained From Flight Tests of Rocket-Boosted Models at Mach Numbers From 0.81 to 1.71

Memorandum presenting tests conducted with four specific versions of a swept-wing fighter airplane, which indicate that a large reduction in external-drag coefficient was accomplished by redesigning the original configuration. The forebody modifications, which consisted of a smaller canopy, slimmer nose, and sharper inlet lip, reduced the value of the external-drag coefficient from 0.044 to 0.042 at a Mach number of 1.05 and from 0.042 to 0.040 at a Mach number of 1.28.

A study of elastic and plastic stress concentration factors due to notches and fillets in flat plates (open access)

A study of elastic and plastic stress concentration factors due to notches and fillets in flat plates

Six large 24s-t3 aluminum-alloy-sheet specimens containing various notches or fillets were tested in tension to determine their stress concentration factors in both the elastic and plastic ranges. The elastic stress concentration factors were found to be slightly higher than those calculated by Neuber's method and those obtained photoelastically by Frocht. The results showed further that the stress concentration factor decreases as strains at the discontinuity enter the plastic range. A generalization of Stowell's relation for the plastic stress concentration factor at a circular hole in an infinite plate was applied to the specimen shapes tested and gave good agreement with test results.

Summary of the Aerodynamic Characteristics and Flying Qualities Obtained from Flights of Rocket-Propelled Models of an Airplane Configuration Incorporating a Sweptback Inversely Tapered Wing at Transonic and Low-Supersonic Speeds (open access)

Summary of the Aerodynamic Characteristics and Flying Qualities Obtained from Flights of Rocket-Propelled Models of an Airplane Configuration Incorporating a Sweptback Inversely Tapered Wing at Transonic and Low-Supersonic Speeds

From Summary: "Flight tests have been conducted on rocket-propelled models of an airplane configuration incorporating a sweptback wing with inverse taper to investigate the drag, stability, and control characteristics at transonic and supersonic speeds. The models were tested with a conventional tail arrangement in the Mach number range from 0.55 to 1.2. In addition to the various aerodynamic parameters obtained, the flying qualities were computed for a full-scale airplane with the center-of-gravity location at 18 percent of the mean aerodynamic chord. Also, included in this investigation are drag measurements made on relatively simple fixed-control models tested with both conventional and V-tail arrangements."

Performance characteristics of axisymmetric two-cone and isentropic nose inlets at Mach number 1.90 (open access)

Performance characteristics of axisymmetric two-cone and isentropic nose inlets at Mach number 1.90

Report presenting an experimental investigation at Mach number 1.90 to determine the overall performance capabilities of axisymmetric two-cone and isentropic nose inlets in terms of total-pressure recovery, mass flow, and external drags. At zero angle of attack, the external drag was separated into their components of cowl pressure, friction, and additive drags. Results regarding total-pressure recovery and mass-flow characteristics, total-pressure profiles at diffuser exit, cowl-pressure distributions and drag, zero-angle-of-attack component breakdown of external drag, and overall performance comparison are provided.

Analytical comparison of convection-cooled turbine blade cooling-air requirements for several radial gas-temperature profiles

Report presenting an analysis made to permit a comparative evaluation of the turbine rotor cooling-air requirements with convection-cooled blades for four combustor-outlet radial gas-temperature profiles: a uniform profile, a profile representable by a complete cycle of the cosine wave using cooler gas layers near the turbine casing, a profile representable by one-half cycle of the cosine wave using cooler gas layers near the stator inner ring, and an optimum profile resulting in the absolute minimum cooling-air requirements.
