Calculation of Centrally Loaded Thin-Walled Columns Above the Buckling Limit (open access)

Calculation of Centrally Loaded Thin-Walled Columns Above the Buckling Limit

"When thin-walled columns formed from flanged sheet, such as used in airplane construction, are subjected to axial load, their behavior at failure varies according to the slenderness ratio. On long columns the axis deflects laterally while the cross section form is maintained; buckling results. The respective breaking load in the elastic range is computed by Euler's formula and for the plastic range by the Engesser- Karman formula. Its magnitude is essentially dependent upon the length" (p. 1).

Characteristics of the BMW 801D2 Automatic Engine Control as Determined From Bench Tests (open access)

Characteristics of the BMW 801D2 Automatic Engine Control as Determined From Bench Tests

Report discusses the results of bench testing on a German BMW 301D2 to determine the relation between the control parameters and any special methods by which the control principles are adapted to the control of the engine. Characteristics are presented for a variety of simulated manifold pressures, charge-air temperatures, engine speeds, and altitudes. Special attention is paid to the pressure characteristics of the servo-oil system and the potential effects of its failure on the operation of the automatic engine-control system.

Comparison of Pitching Moments Produced by Plain Flaps and by Spoilers and Some Aerodynamic Characteristics of an NACA 23012 Airfoil with Various Types of Aileron (open access)

Comparison of Pitching Moments Produced by Plain Flaps and by Spoilers and Some Aerodynamic Characteristics of an NACA 23012 Airfoil with Various Types of Aileron

Sectional characteristics of airfoil having retractable slotted flap with plain, slot-lip, or retractable ailerons are presented for a large range of aileron deflections. The analysis indicated that pitching moments produced by spoilers were less positive than those produced by plain flaps of equal effectiveness, also that pitching moments created by the spoiler increased less with the Mach number than similar moments produced by plain flaps. Positive values of pitching moment decreased as devices were located nearer airfoil leading edge.

Comparison of Predicted and Actual Control-Fixed Stability and Control Characteristics of a Douglas A-26B Airplane (open access)

Comparison of Predicted and Actual Control-Fixed Stability and Control Characteristics of a Douglas A-26B Airplane

Report presents a comparison of predicted qualities of the A-26B airplane with actual flying qualities determined in testing. From Summary: "The results indicate that the control-fixed, power-off stability and control characteristics of a conventional airplane can be predicted from the dimensions of the airplane and from general wind-tunnel data now available with sufficient accuracy for design purposes. No estimate of control forces, of effects of power on stability, or of adverse aileron yaw has been made."

Computation of Hinge-Moment Characteristics of Horizontal Tails from Section Data (open access)

Computation of Hinge-Moment Characteristics of Horizontal Tails from Section Data

Bulletin presenting a study of data from various wind-tunnel tests of horizontal tail surfaces to determine the accuracy with which section data can be used to estimate the hinge-moment characteristics of control surfaces of finite span. The study consisted of a comparison between the variations of elevator hinge moments with elevator deflection and with airplane pitching moment, as estimated from data obtained in two-dimensional flow, and that variation measured experimentally on 16 different horizontal tails mounted on wind-tunnel models of complete airplanes.
