Pressure Distributions on the Blade Sections of the NACA 10-(3)(090)-03 Propeller Under Operating Conditions (open access)

Pressure Distributions on the Blade Sections of the NACA 10-(3)(090)-03 Propeller Under Operating Conditions

The third report in a series of five that present unanalyzed pressure data obtained in tests of five full-scale propellers with NACA 16-series blade sections. Pressure distributions on the blade sections were measured under operating conditions to determine the aerodynamic characteristics of each blade section. This particular report presents information for nine radial stations of the NACA 10-(3)(090)-03 propeller.

Preliminary Tank Investigation of the Use of Single Monoplane Hydrofoils for High-Speed Airplanes (open access)

Preliminary Tank Investigation of the Use of Single Monoplane Hydrofoils for High-Speed Airplanes

Report presenting an investigation of the hydrodynamic take-off and landing characteristics of a model of a hypothetical jet- and rocket-propelled high-speed airplane fitted with various designs of a single monoplane hydrofoil mounted near the center of gravity. This testing is performed to determine the feasibility of the water-based operation of high-speed airplanes. Results regarding the general hydrodynamic characteristics, development of hydrofoils, and effects of some hydrofoil parameters are provided.

Evaluation of Gust and Draft Velocities From Flights of an AT-6 Airplane Within Cumulus Clouds July 1, 1947 to July 22, 1947 at Clinton County Army Air Field, Ohio (open access)

Evaluation of Gust and Draft Velocities From Flights of an AT-6 Airplane Within Cumulus Clouds July 1, 1947 to July 22, 1947 at Clinton County Army Air Field, Ohio

Memorandum presenting measurements of gust and draft velocities within cumulus clouds at a certain army air field using an AT-6 airplane. The measurements were made to supplement the at a obtained with P-61C airplanes. The data are summarized in tables.

High-altitude performance of 9.5-inch-diameter tubular experimental combustor with fuel staging (open access)

High-altitude performance of 9.5-inch-diameter tubular experimental combustor with fuel staging

Report presenting an investigation of 57 experimental tubular designs embodying adjacent fuel-rich and air-rich regions and axial staging of the fuel introduction at simulated high-altitude conditions. Results regarding the development of pilot, development of secondary-air admission sleeve, development of final configuration, and performance of best configuration are provided.
