Tests of a Thermal Ice-Prevention System for a Wing Leading-Edge Landing-Light Installation (open access)

Tests of a Thermal Ice-Prevention System for a Wing Leading-Edge Landing-Light Installation

Report discussing the creation of a thermal ice-prevention system of a bomber-type airplane to provide protection against ice and fog formations on the transparent fairing over the landing light in the wing leading edge. A comparison between the design performance and actual performance showed that the outer-surface heat-transfer coefficient was correctly predicted, but the inner-surface heat-transfer coefficient was four times as large, leading to failure of the plastic fairing.

Wall interference in a two-dimensional-flow wind tunnel with consideration of the effect of compressibility (open access)

Wall interference in a two-dimensional-flow wind tunnel with consideration of the effect of compressibility

Report presenting tunnel-wall corrections for an airfoil of finite thickness and camber in a two-dimensional-flow wind tunnel. The theory takes account of the effects of the wake of the airfoil and of the compressibility of the fluid and is based on the assumption that the chord of the airfoil is small in comparison with the height of the tunnel. The theoretical results are compared with the small amount of low-speed experimental data available and agreement is seen to be satisfactory, even for relatively large values of the chord-height ratio.
