A Concise Theoretical Method for Profile-Drag Calculation; Advance Report (open access)

A Concise Theoretical Method for Profile-Drag Calculation; Advance Report

In this report a method is presented for the calculation of the profile drag of airfoil sections. The method requlres only a knowledge of the theoretical velocity distribution and can be applied readily once this dlstribution is ascertained. Comparison of calculated and experimental drag characteristics for several airfoils shows a satisfactory agreement. Sample calculatlons are included.

An Investigation of a Thermal Ice-Prevention System for a C-46 Cargo Airplane 3: Description of Thermal Ice-Prevention Equipment for Wings, Empennage, and Windshield (open access)

An Investigation of a Thermal Ice-Prevention System for a C-46 Cargo Airplane 3: Description of Thermal Ice-Prevention Equipment for Wings, Empennage, and Windshield

Report presenting an investigation of a thermal ice-prevention system for a Curtiss-Wright C-46 airplane, including the equipment for the wings, empennage, and windshield. The report is the third in a series and focuses on the revisions to the components for thermal ice prevention, the temperature- and pressure-measurement equipment installed in the airplane to determine the performance of the system, and the results of static-load structural tests of a specimen of the wing outer-panel leading edge.

An Investigation of a Thermal Ice-Prevention System for a C-46 Cargo Airplane 4: Results of Flight Tests in Dry-Air and Natural-Icing Conditions (open access)

An Investigation of a Thermal Ice-Prevention System for a C-46 Cargo Airplane 4: Results of Flight Tests in Dry-Air and Natural-Icing Conditions

Report presenting an investigation of a thermal ice-prevention system for a C-46 cargo airplane, which involved flight tests in dry-air and natural-icing conditions at two different laboratories. The purpose of the investigation was to determine the effectiveness of the C-46 airplane ice-prevention system and to continue the develop of thermal ice-prevention equipment. Results regarding the wing outer panel, wing tips, wing center panel, horizontal stabilizers, vertical fin, windshields, ice-removal tests, unprotected surfaces, and heat exchangers are provided.

An Investigation of a Thermal Ice-Prevention System for a C-46 Cargo Airplane 2: The Design, Construction, and Preliminary Tests of the Exhaust-Air Heat Exchanger (open access)

An Investigation of a Thermal Ice-Prevention System for a C-46 Cargo Airplane 2: The Design, Construction, and Preliminary Tests of the Exhaust-Air Heat Exchanger

Report presenting an investigation of an exhaust-air heat exchanger, which has been designed, constructed, and flight-tested for a C-46 cargo airplane. The primary purpose of the investigation was to provide the C-46 airplane with a satisfactory source of heated air and to continue the development of the heat exchanger as a part of thermal ice-prevention equipment. Results indicated that the required thermal output and desired air-temperature rise have been achieved and that the exchanger is suitable for use in the C-46 airplane.
