Effect of variation of chord and span of ailerons on hinge moments at several angles of pitch (open access)

Effect of variation of chord and span of ailerons on hinge moments at several angles of pitch

This report presents the results of an investigation of the hinge moments of ailerons of various chords and spans on two airfoils having the Clark Y and USA-27 wing sections, supplementing the investigations described in NACA-TR-298 and NACA-TR-343, of the rolling and yawing moments due to similar ailerons on these two airfoil sections. The measurements were made at various angles of pitch, but at zero angle of roll and yaw, the wing chord being set at an angle of +4 degrees to the fuselage axis.

Coefficients of discharge of fuel-injection nozzles for compression-ignition engines (open access)

Coefficients of discharge of fuel-injection nozzles for compression-ignition engines

"This report presents the results of an investigation to determine the coefficients of discharge of nozzles with small, round orifices of the size used with high-speed compression-ignition engines. The injection pressures and chamber back pressures employed were comparable to those existing in compression-ignition engines during injection. The construction of the nozzles was varied to determine the effect of the nozzle design on the coefficient. Tests were also made with nozzles assembled in an automatic injection valve, both with a plain and with a helically grooved stem" (p. 193).
