The Origin and Distribution of Supersonic Store Interference From Measurement of Individual Forces on Several Wing-Fuselagestore Configurations 1. - Swept-Wing Heavy-Bomber Configuration With Large Store (Nacelle). Lift and Drag; Mach Number, 1.61 (open access)

The Origin and Distribution of Supersonic Store Interference From Measurement of Individual Forces on Several Wing-Fuselagestore Configurations 1. - Swept-Wing Heavy-Bomber Configuration With Large Store (Nacelle). Lift and Drag; Mach Number, 1.61

Memorandum presenting a supersonic wind-tunnel investigation of the origin and distribution of store interference in the 4- by 4-foot supersonic pressure tunnel at Mach number 1.6 in which separate forces on a store, a fuselage, a swept wing, and a swept-wing-fuselage combination were measured. The store was separately sting-mounted on its own six-component internal balance and was traversed through a wide systematic range of spanwise, chordwise, and vertical positions.

Turbulent Convective Heat-Transfer Coefficients Measured From Flight Tests of Four Research Models (NACA RM-10) at Mach Numbers From 1.0 to 3.6 (open access)

Turbulent Convective Heat-Transfer Coefficients Measured From Flight Tests of Four Research Models (NACA RM-10) at Mach Numbers From 1.0 to 3.6

Report presenting an evaluation of convective heat-transfer coefficients from skin temperatures measured along the body of a research model designated NACA RM-10. Heat-transfer data is presented for a range of Mach and Reynolds numbers based on the axial distance from the nose to the point at which the temperature measurements were made. Results regarding the recovery factor, heat transfer, correlation with different aircraft models, and Reynolds analogy are provided.

Flight Measurements of the Transonic Drag of Models of Several Isolated External Stores and Nacelles (open access)

Flight Measurements of the Transonic Drag of Models of Several Isolated External Stores and Nacelles

Report presenting drag measurements on models of 20 isolated external stores and nacelles flown from the helium gun at a range of Mach numbers. Results regarding fineness-ratio and shape effects, drag correlation, and friction drag are provided. Generally, the shape variations among the various types of stores and nacelles had the expected effects on isolated body drag.
