Measurements of the chordwise pressure distributions over the wing of the XS-1 research airplane in flight (open access)

Measurements of the chordwise pressure distributions over the wing of the XS-1 research airplane in flight

Report presenting measurements of the chordwise pressure distributions over the 8-percent-thick wing of the XS-1 research airplane at a section near the midspan of the left wing. Data are presented for a Mach number range and a normal-force coefficient of about 0.33. Results regarding the upper-surface pressure distribution, lower-surface pressure distributions, and total section loads are provided.

Altitude-Wind-Tunnel Investigation of a 4000-Pound-Thrust Axial-Flow Turbojet Engine 6: Combustion-Chamber Performance (open access)

Altitude-Wind-Tunnel Investigation of a 4000-Pound-Thrust Axial-Flow Turbojet Engine 6: Combustion-Chamber Performance

"An analysis of the performance of the types A, B, and C combustion chambers of the 4000-pound-thrust axial-flow turbojet engine is presented. The data were obtained from investigations of the complete engine over a range of pressure altitudes from 5000 to 40,000 feet and ram pressure ratios from 1.00 to 1.86. The combustion-chamber pressure losses, the effect of the losses on cycle efficiency, and the combustion efficiency are discussed" (p. 1).

Altitude-Wind-Tunnel Investigation of a 4000-Pound-Thrust Axial-Flow Turbojet Engine 5 - Analysis of Turbine Performance (open access)

Altitude-Wind-Tunnel Investigation of a 4000-Pound-Thrust Axial-Flow Turbojet Engine 5 - Analysis of Turbine Performance

"Performance characteristics of the turbine of a 4000-pound-thrust axial-flow turbojet engine was determined in investigations of the complete engine in the NACA Cleveland altitude wind tunnel. Characteristics are presented as functions of the total-pressure ratio across the turbine and of turbine speed and gas flow corrected to sea-level conditions. Three turbine nozzles of different areas were used to determine the area that gave optimum performance" (p. 1).

Effect of First-Stage Blade Design on Performance of Mark 25 Torpedo Power Plant (open access)

Effect of First-Stage Blade Design on Performance of Mark 25 Torpedo Power Plant

"The effect of rotor-blade length, inlet angle, and shrouding was investigated with four different nozzles in a single-stage modification of the Mark 25 aerial-torpedo power plant. The results obtained with the five special rotor configurations are compared with those of the standard first-stage rotor with each nozzle. Each nozzle-rotor combination was operated at nominal pressure ratios of 8, 15 (design), and 20 over a range of speeds from 6000 rpm to the design speed of 18,000 rpm" (p. 1).

An Investigation of the Aerodynamic Characteristics of a 3/4-Scale Model of the EX-3 Pine-Cone-Head Pellet in the Langley High-Speed 7-by 10-Foot Wind Tunnel (open access)

An Investigation of the Aerodynamic Characteristics of a 3/4-Scale Model of the EX-3 Pine-Cone-Head Pellet in the Langley High-Speed 7-by 10-Foot Wind Tunnel

"An investigation of the EX-3 pine-cone-head pellet was made in the Langley high-speed 7-by 10-foot wind tunnel to determine the static force and moment characteristics at high Mach numbers with the reference center of gravity located at 37.5 percent of the over-all length aft of the nose. For this center-of-gravity location there were no secondary trim positions, and the center-of-pressure position was not appreciably affected by Mach number" (p. 1).
