Theoretical comparison of several methods of thrust augmentation for turbojet engines (open access)

Theoretical comparison of several methods of thrust augmentation for turbojet engines

"A theoretical investigation of tail-pipe burning, water injection at the compressor inlet, combination tail-pipe burning plus water injection, bleedoff, and rocket-assist methods thrust augmentation for turbojet engines was made for an engine representative of those in current use. The effect of augmented liquid ratio on augmented thrust ratio and the effects of altitude and flight Mach number on the performance of various methods were determined. The additional take-off weight involved by the use of the different thrust augmentation methods, as well as the effect of the various thrust augmentation methods on the range of a representative aircraft was also investigated" (p. 727).

A Comparison of Flight Measurements With Calculations of the Loss in Rolling Effectiveness Due to Wing Twist (open access)

A Comparison of Flight Measurements With Calculations of the Loss in Rolling Effectiveness Due to Wing Twist

"A flight investigation was conducted with a fighter-type airplane to determine the loss in rolling effectiveness due to wing twist, and the results are compared with the loss in rolling effectiveness calculated by use of a simplified method. The computed rolling velocities showed good agreement with experimentally determined rolling velocities throughout the Mach number range covered by the flights. Extrapolation of the flight data indicated a Mach number for reversal which agreed well with that obtained from calculations" (p. 1).

Calculated Condenser Performance for a Mercury-Turbine Power Plant for Aircraft (open access)

Calculated Condenser Performance for a Mercury-Turbine Power Plant for Aircraft

"As part of an investigation of the application of nuclear energy to various types of power plants for aircraft, calculations have been made to determine the effect of several operating conditions on the performance of condensers for mercury-turbine power plants. The analysis covered 8 range of turbine-outlet pressures from 1 to 200 pounds per square inch absolute, turbine-inlet pressures from 300 to 700 pounds per square inch absolute,and a range of condenser cooling-air pressure drops, airplane flight speeds, and altitudes. The maximum load-carrying capacity (available for the nuclear reactor, working fluid, and cargo) of a mercury-turbine powered aircraft would be about half the gross weight of the airplane at a flight speed of 509 miles per hour and an altitude of 30,000 feet" (p. 1).

Measurements of the Lateral and Directional Stability and Control Characteristics of a P-51H Airplane (AAF No. 44-64164) (open access)

Measurements of the Lateral and Directional Stability and Control Characteristics of a P-51H Airplane (AAF No. 44-64164)

From Summary: "Flight tests of a P-51H airplane with two different vertical-tail assemblies were made to determine lateral and directional stability and control characteristics. The airplane had satisfactory directional stability in the landing, approach, and wave-off conditions with either tail. In the power-on clean and glide conditions, however, the airplane had weak directional stability with the original tail. The production tail, which had a 7-inch fin extension and a shorter span rudder, improved the directional stability in the power-on clean and glide conditions, but the stability was still weak in the power-on clean condition."

Theoretical Comparison of Several Methods of Thrust Augmentation for Turbojet Engines

"A theoretical investigation has been made of various methods of thrust augmentation for turbojet engines. The method investigated were tail-pipe burning, water injection at the compressor inlet, a combination of tail-pipe burning and water injection, bleedoff in conjunction with water injection at the compressor inlet, and rocket assist. The effect of ratio of augmented-to-normal total liquid consumption, flight conditions, and design compressor pressure ratio on the augmentation produced by each method were determined" (p. 1).
