Memorandum presenting a description of an axial-discharge mixed-flow compressor, which is especially adapted for jet engines because of the large mass flow per unit frontal area. The best impeller was selected on the basis of the maximum air-flow capacity, which was 19.6 pounds per second for a 14-inch-diameter impeller with a tip speed of 1480 feet per second and a pressure ratio of 3.5.

Report presenting an analysis of an axial-discharge mixed-flow compressor designed to combine the compactness, reliability, and wide operating range of a mixed-flow compressor with the high flow capacity per unit of frontal area that characterizes the axial-flow compressor. The primary objective of this design was to maximize the flow capacity for a predetermined pressure ratio. Results regarding the flow distribution at the impeller inlet, flow distribution at the impeller outlet, and impeller performance are provided.

Memorandum presenting an investigation in natural icing conditions to determine the effect of ice formations on the performance of an axial-flow turbojet engine. A description of the change over time in tail-pipe temperature, engine jet thrust, fuel flow, ice collection, and acceleration qualities are provided.
