Production Test 105-533-A -- Supplement C, Local controlled increases in C-Pile tube powers

Production Test 105--533-A and Supplements A and B which authorize an ``experimental area`` in C-pile in which the tube power limits are relaxed to allow tube power increases up to 16-2/3 per cent above the maximum allowed tube power outside of the experimental area. Supplement B (HW-28775) further limits the maximum tube power to 820 kw. The planned increase of tube powers at C-Pile (from 700 kw/tube to 800 kw/tube) for the tubes outside of the experimental area will cause the experimental area to operate at tube powers up to 935 kw.

Plastic Deformation of Aluminum Single Crystals at Elevated Temperatures (open access)

Plastic Deformation of Aluminum Single Crystals at Elevated Temperatures

"This report describes the results of a comprehensive study of plastic deformation of aluminum single crystals over a wide range of temperatures. The results of constant-stress creep tests have been reported for the temperature range from 400 degrees to 900 degrees F. For these tests, a new capacitance-type extensometer was designed. This unit has a range of 0.30 inch over which the sensitivity is very nearly linear and can be varied from as low a sensitivity as is desired to a maximum of 20 microinches per millivolt with good stability" (p. 353).

Component and over-all performance evaluation of a J47-GE-25 turbojet engine over a range of engine-inlet Reynolds number indices

Report presenting an investigation in the altitude test chamber to evaluate the performance of an axial-flow turbojet engine over a range of engine-inlet Reynolds number indices. Secondary effects of exhaust-nozzle flow coefficient, air-flow leakage, and inlet temperature should be considered before analyzing the effect of variations in engine-inlet Reynolds number index. Several minor design modifications proposed by the manufacturer did not produce any measurable improvement in engine performance.

Altitude performance characteristics of the J47-25 turbojet engine: data presentation (open access)

Altitude performance characteristics of the J47-25 turbojet engine: data presentation

From Introduction: "An investigation was conducted in an NACA Lewis altitude chamber to determine the altitude performance characteristics of a J47-25 axial-flow turbojet engine over a range of engine-inlet Reynolds number indices corresponding to altitudes from 18,000 to 54,000 feet and flight Mach numbers from 0.50 to 1.10. Reynolds number at a given corrected engine speed and is a function only of engine-inlet total pressure and temperature, was used instead of various set altitudes and flight Mach number combinations (reference 1). An example is included in the appendix to illustrate the method of obtaining conventional performance parameters for a given flight condition from the data such as presented herein."
