The Pile Safety Circuit (open access)

The Pile Safety Circuit

The present report is concerned with the electronic relay which, upon the reaching of a pre-determined value of ionization current in the associated chamber, actuates the safety rod release mechanism. The are here proposed two independent suggestions: (1) An improved trip circuit of such sensitivity and stability as to allow it to be actuated by a signal directly from the chamber without the necessity of interposing intermediate amplifier stages. The value of chamber current at which tripping occurs is stable to +- 0.4%. (2) A triple-wound relay to prevent shut-downs of the pile which would otherwise be caused by development of defects in the safety circuits.

Power-Off Tests of the Northrop N9M-2 Tailless Airplane in the 40- by 80-Foot Wind Tunnel

Report discussing tests on the N9M-2 airplane to evaluate the airplane efficiency factor and to investigate the characteristics of the aeroboost in the elevon control system. The efficiency factor compared reasonably well to conventional airplanes and the aeroboost system and valve-chatter tests were satisfactory.

Experimental verification of a simplified vee-tail theory and analysis of available data on complete models with vee tails (open access)

Experimental verification of a simplified vee-tail theory and analysis of available data on complete models with vee tails

An analysis has been made of available data on vee tail surfaces. Previously published theoretical studies of vee tails have been extended to include the control effectiveness and control forces in addition to the stability. Tests of two isolated tail surfaces with various amounts of dihedral provided a check of the theory. Methods for designing vee tails were also developed and are given in the present paper.

Calculation of the Temperature Distribution in a Slug With a Solid Aluminum Cap

Calculations were made to determine the temperature at various points of a thick disc and cap, on the assumptions that the heat production rate is uniform throughout the slug and that the slug is in perfect thermal contact with the cap. Results obtained by different methods of computation are compared with each other and with results obtained by Drew on the Paschkis electrical network computer at Columbia University.
