A Wind-Tunnel Investigation of the Effects of Conical Camber for an Airplane Configuration Having a Triangular Wing of Aspect Ratio 2.2 (open access)

A Wind-Tunnel Investigation of the Effects of Conical Camber for an Airplane Configuration Having a Triangular Wing of Aspect Ratio 2.2

Memorandum presenting the results of an investigation directed at determining the effectiveness of various amounts and spanwise extents of conical camber on the aerodynamic characteristics of a wing-body-tail combination employing a triangular wing of aspect ratio 2.2. Five cambered wings were tested, all of which were designed for a Mach number of 1.0. Results regarding drag characteristics and lift and moment characteristics are provided.

Investigation of conditions for spontaneous ignition and combustion efficiency of pentaborane in a small-scale combustor (open access)

Investigation of conditions for spontaneous ignition and combustion efficiency of pentaborane in a small-scale combustor

Report presenting an investigation using a small-scale ramjet combustor to determine the conditions for spontaneous ignition of pentaborane, amyl nitrate, propylene oxide, and JP-4 fuel. For the range of conditions investigated, the threshold of spontaneous ignition of pentaborane is primarily governed by temperature and is also influenced by burner length and configuration. Combustion efficiency was found to increase in burner length and blocked area of the flame holder.

Component Performance Investigation of J71 Experimental Turbine 9 - Effect of First-Stator Adjustment;Internal Flow Conditions of J71-97 Turbine With 87-Percent-Design Stator Area (open access)

Component Performance Investigation of J71 Experimental Turbine 9 - Effect of First-Stator Adjustment;Internal Flow Conditions of J71-97 Turbine With 87-Percent-Design Stator Area

"An experimental radial-survey investigation of the J71-97 three-stage turbine equipped with a first stator having a throat area 87 percent of the design value was conducted at one turbine operating point. The first-, second-, and third-stage mass-averaged efficiencies were 0.897, 0.843, and 0.755, respectively. The corresponding over-all turbine efficiency was 0.856" (p. 1).

Wind-tunnel tests of the static longitudinal characteristics at low speed of a swept-wing airplane with slotted flaps, area-suction flaps, and wing leading-edge devices (open access)

Wind-tunnel tests of the static longitudinal characteristics at low speed of a swept-wing airplane with slotted flaps, area-suction flaps, and wing leading-edge devices

Report presenting a low-speed wind-tunnel investigation of a high-wing airplane with an aspect ratio of 6.75 and 36 degrees of sweepback on the quarter-chord line in order to determine the lift increments obtainable with area-suction flaps. Comparisons were made to the slotted flaps normally used. Results regarding the flap lift, maximum lift and stability, and boundary-layer control requirements are provided.
